Resumen
GOMES, David. 2020 and the Brazilian Crisis as a Crisis of our America: Towards a Defense of the Welfare State in Latin America and the Caribbean Beyond the National State. Opin. jurid. [online]. 2021, vol.20, n.42, pp.49-66. Epub 19-Mayo-2021. ISSN 1692-2530. https://doi.org/10.22395/ojum.v20n42a1.
This article’s goal is to discuss the current Brazilian crisis as a Latin American and the Caribbean crisis. Thus, this article methodologically translates the debate of the predominant bibliography upon democratic crisis towards a theory of societies in three levels. The first part presents and synthetically develops the idea of a theory of society in three levels. The second part discusses the main elements for the comprehension of the current Brazilin crisis. Lastly, the article states in its conclusions that the current Brazilian crisis must be understood as a crisis of our America and, thus, the defense of the welfare state in Latin America and the Caribbean must go beyond the nation-state. Thereby, the results indicate the need for greater contact among the Latin American and the Caribbean countries as a way for ensuring better protection of democracy and the welfare state in the region.
