Hentschke, Jens R.Positivism gaścho-Style"Jślio de Castilhoss Dictatorship and its Impact on State and Nation- Building in Vargass Brazil"
Reihe: Akademische Abhandlung zur Geschichte |
 |
AbstractJens R Hentschkes revisionist study argues that French Positivism which had played a major role in Brazils transition from monarchy to republic did not disappear at the turn of the 20th century. It survived at the countrys southern frontier, in Rio Grande do Sul, where governor Jślio de Castilhos had installed a developmental and educational dictatorship and inspired a whole generation of politicians, among them Getślio Vargas. When, in 1930, Vargas and many of his fellow gaśchos took over central government, Positivism, in its specific interpretation by Castilhos, re-entered the national stage though it increasingly fused with other ideological currents. Gaśchos had an almost unlimited confidence in the healing powers of good institutions. They did not only want to govern their country but rebuild state and nation. Positivism became a driving force behind what Fernando Henrique Cardoso has called an authoritarian national-developmentalism. Some of its long-term effects, such as a frenzy for regulation, political engineering of constitutional law, regulated citizenship, and (neo-)populism, can still be felt today. |
