Este artículo analiza la evolución del espacio político brasileño en los poderes legislativo y ejecutivo, a partir de la convergencia de la aproximación entre pautas y actores de seguridad y el cristianismo neopentecostal; proceso que experimentó un momento de ascensión en los años 2000 y se consumó con la elección como presidente del país de Jair Bolsonaro en octubre de 2018. A través del análisis de actas gubernamentales, propuestas legislativas y materiales periodísticos, se trazan los perfiles de las principales agrupaciones armamentísticas/securitarias y neopentecostales en el legislativo brasileño. Tomando como objeto de estudio el Frente Parlamentario Evangélico y el Frente Parlamentario de Seguridad Pública, se demuestra el crecimiento, entre 2011 y 2019, de su influencia y alineamiento mutuo.
This article discusses how the institutionalization of international mediation practices and its growing relevance since the end of the Cold War coincided with the formation of an epistemic community that shares common practices for a third party. This community focuses on core concepts that structure mediation practices such as efficiency, rationality, and the management of time and information. The article analyzes the consolidation of this community through the circulation of knowledge among scholars and practitioners. In particular, it highlights the place of the concept of ripeness, developed by Ira William Zartman, in stabilizing a division between a moment of conflict and a moment of nonconflict; and it discusses the place of the UN system in its dissemination among mediation practitioners. The article argues that the project-oriented understanding of mediation practices that arises from these shared conceptions contributes to an insulation of these practices from broader views of conflict within international politics.
