“…Por outro lado, o momento caracterizado pelo ciclo de protestos demanda também a continuidade das análises, pois, como afirma Pineda, a estrutura das oportunidades políticas, analisada por Tarrow e Tilly (2016, p. 196), "não é uma realidade 'externa' aos sujeitos coletivos e, como tal, não está à margem dos processos cognitivos e interpretativos construídos por seus integrantes, ou seja, os processos de construção de sentido" (tradução livre) 2 . Se a noção de repertórios da ação coletiva (autonomista, socialista e patriótico), desenvolvida e problematizada por alguns autores (ALONSO; MISCHE, 2017;BRINGEL, 2017;PLEYERS, 2019;MENDONÇA;COSTA, 2018), ajuda-nos a compreender as constelações que podem ter agrupado os jovens, é preciso reconhecer, como afirma Mendonça (2017), algumas questões que demandam maior aprofundamento, tais como: uma incursão crítica ao conceito de identidade, na medida em que o conflito pode pressupor a desidentificação (REGUILLO, 2017); a disseminação de formas mais individualizadas de engajamento político, nem sempre perfiladas em torno desses repertórios; e, finalmente, a transformação das unidades interativas diante do crescente uso das tecnologias de informação e de comunicação. O autor aponta, também, a importância da investigação sobre os diversos sentidos que perfilam a própria noção de democracia presente entre os ativistas (MENDONÇA, 2018, p. 18).…”

RESUMO Este artigo analisa tendências da pesquisa sobre jovens como atores coletivos, nas formas plurais de ação na esfera público-política. As modalidades de prática foram agregadas em três eixos: aquelas derivadas da condição estudantil; as que incidem sobre as culturas juvenis; e os movimentos de ação direta, ao lado dos associativismos de base territorial e de mobilizações a partir das identidades. Baseou-se em textos acadêmicos elaborados entre 2006 e 2018, período de intensa visibilidade de práticas e conflitos protagonizados por jovens no Brasil. Evidenciam-se formatos plurais, conexões e tend.ncias nas práticas coletivas juvenis, considerando tanto as alterações conjunturais quanto as diversas temporalidades dos processos de mobilização.

“…Although the current momentum of the WSF appears weaker than the one at the beginning of the century, the social forum web of activities provides at least a possible alternative story to the dilemma afflicting WSF activists. While social movements are subject to cycles including ebbs and flows (Tilly, 1978;Tarrow, 1994;Rupp and Taylor, 1987;Bringel and Pleyers, 2019), the WSF has at the same time given input to a wealth of activities around the world linked to its Charter of Principles. A good overview of the scope and extension of this network of activities is given by the WSF calendar.…”

Various social movement debates on organisational design have hinged on the possibility and political usefulness of devising post-representational, a-representational or antirepresentational spaces. We analyse organizational options and obstacles that the WSF faces. A denial of representational dynamics may leave internal power and structural imbalances unattended. We raise the question whether the WSF process can intersect the current instances of activism across the planet including the climate justice movement. We explore its changing attitudes toward representational decision-making. Finally, we suggest that the relationship between traditional organisation-building and internet-mediated decision-making practices developing at the intersection between the local, the global and the virtual could be debated on the road to the next global WSF, likely to take place in Mexico.

“…The initial 2013 protests and subsequent mobilizations were driven by diffuse dissatisfactions and led to what Bringel and Pleyers (2019) have described as a ‘social opening’ in Brazil, where different actors (e.g., political groups, parties, politicians) emerged to stake their claims and gain support on both left and right. During the Presidential election campaign of the following year (2014), political polarization grew, partly exacerbated by regional divisions (Ferreira Do Vale, 2015).…”

The election of the far-right populist Jair Bolsonaro in the 2018 Brazilian Presidential election was a major turning point in the history of the country and arguably part of a worldwide trend toward a form of 'authoritarian populism'. The present study was conducted to explore psychological factors that may contribute to the appeal of a polarizing figure such as Bolsonaro, in particular, to determine whether measures of various 'Moral Foundations' or 'Social Dominance Orientation' (SDO) could best predict voting behaviour in the 2018 election. Given the cultural and economic context in Brazil, measures of religiosity and personal relative deprivation were included as additional potential explanatory variables. An online survey of 325 people from Brazil found that Bolsonaro voters scored higher on the 'binding' (Loyalty, Authority, Purity/Sanctity) and lower on the 'individualizing' (Care, Fairness) Moral Foundations than voters for the candidate of the left, Fernando Haddad. Moreover, Bolsonaro voters scored higher than Haddad voters on SDO and religiosity. When the various social, moral and religious measures were considered simultaneously in a binary logistic regression, it was endorsement of right-wing authoritarian ideologies (SDO and the Authority Moral Foundation), rather than lack of endorsement of individualizing Moral Foundations that best distinguished Bolsonaro voters.
