  • Post-Capitalist Struggles in 21St Century Latin America: Cooperation, Democracy and State Power
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by YorkSpace POST-CAPITALIST STRUGGLES IN 21ST CENTURY LATIN AMERICA: COOPERATION, DEMOCRACY AND STATE POWER MANUEL LARRABURE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO DECEMBER 2016 © Manuel Larrabure 2016 Abstract This dissertation develops the concept of ‘post-capitalist struggles’. This concept highlights how a post-capitalist future is a recurring moment within the capitalist present and can be developed through struggles that express the latent powers found within what Marx called ‘the collective worker’. Using a comparative and historical framework, I examine four case studies in Latin America: Venezuela’s socialist enterprises, Argentina’s recuperated factories, the Chilean student movement and the Brazilian transit movement. In expressing new values and practices, such as collective management, solidarity and participatory democracy, and their ability to develop the political capacities to formulate clear demands and strategies through the state, these four cases can indeed be considered examples of post-capitalist struggles. However, as mere glimpses of the future, these struggles display number of contradictions and ambiguities, particularly in relation to democratic practice and political organization. This is most marked in struggles that originate in the sphere of capitalist reproduction. A comparative analysis of the four cases also reveals the possibilities and limits of Latin America’s ‘pink tide’. These are found in what I call the ‘neostructuralist bargain’. Through this bargain, vulnerable sectors of the population become the target of small economic reforms that evidence a departure from the neoliberal orthodoxy of previous decades.

Introduction THE ROYAL FAMILY’S ARRIVAL AND THE 1988 CONSTITUTION Brazil lagged sorely behind until 1808. It was only three hundred years after its discovery2, with the arrival of the Portuguese royal family, that Brazil began to develop a sense of national identity3. Until then, the ports served Portugal exclusively. Local manufacturing was prohibited by Portuguese authorities, as was the construction of roads. There were no high-level education institutions, only elementary schools run by the Catholic Church. More than 98% of the Brazilian population was illiterate, and in the absence of currency, bartering was the order of the day. One out of every three persons was a slave, and slavery would persist for yet 1 Professor of Constitutional Law, Rio de Janeiro State University – UERJ.

  • 39º Encontro Anual Da Anpocs SPG14
    39º Encontro Anual da Anpocs SPG14 - Partidos políticos e sistemas de partidos O Partido dos Trabalhadores na Câmara dos Deputados: Análise da Indisciplina das Tendências Internas do PT Cristiana Maglia (UFRGS) e Paulo Sérgio Peres (UFRGS) As tendências do PT e a disciplina partidária na Câmara dos Deputados Resumo O presente artigo busca analisar a disciplina dos deputados do Partido dos Trabalhadores em meio às suas transformações no sistema político brasileiro e em sua organização interna. Na última década, o PT vem tendo sua indisciplina aumentada, ao mesmo tempo em que parte da literatura aponta para mudanças em sua organização política, sua prática e seu discurso. Para isso, é estudada a composição das tendências internas na indisciplina do PT na Câmara dos Deputados. A análise sugere a possibilidade de que a indisciplina parlamentar tenha canalizado a oposição interna do partido, por vezes inclusive resultando em dissidências, como resposta aos impactos de suas transformações na democracia interna do partido. Introdução O objetivo deste artigo é compreender a indisciplina parlamentar do Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT), a partir das mudanças que a organização política sofreu ao longo de sua trajetória. Primeiramente, vale salientar que o PT se destaca no sistema político brasileiro pelo elevado nível de disciplina parlamentar. Contudo, essa disciplina em relação ao voto tem diminuído ao longo da última década, particularmente após a eleição do partido à presidência da república. Ao mesmo tempo, observa-se a emergência de uma literatura sobre as modificações que o partido vem sofrendo no sistema político brasileiro e em sua estrutura interna neste mesmo período (HUNTER, 2010, LACERDA, 2010, RIBEIRO, 2010).
