Bolsonarismo e as eleições de 2022

ABSTRACT

The article analyzes the ideological components, based on preferences of political issues, of the voter who supports Jair Bolsonaro. Bolsonarism is a right-wing electoral alignment in Brazil, strongly associated with dimensions of a conservative agenda, including a tough-minded vision in the fight against crime, strong culturalist reaction to progressive gender politics, economic liberalism, rejection of social inclusion policies based on quotas and reticence regarding cash transfer policies. More recently, Bolsonarism incorporated denialism in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, adherence to conspiracy theories and an option for anti-democratic alternatives. We tested this alignment using data from the Cara da Democracia series of public opinion surveys for the years 2018 to 2022.
