Brazil’s Democracy Tomorrow

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: A historic runoff election took place in Brazil last month. Lula da Silva defeated the far-right candidate Flávio Bolsonaro by nearly 4.4 million votes. The outcome of this election provides an opportunity to take stock of the resilience of Brazilian democracy and the challenges it continues to face. Its future urgently depends on stronger institutions and a strategic reduction of excessive decision-making powers concentrated in individual actors.
