Brazilian Democracy Is Seriously Threatened

Brazilian Democracy Is Seriously Threatened
We, the undersigned academics, students, and scholars, living and working in the United States,
Europe, and other parts of the world, who are specialists in Latin American studies, are alarmed
at the current political situation in Brazil, which poses a serious threat to democracy.
Since 1985, Brazil has been enjoying the longest period of democratic stability in its history,
following a coup d’état in 1964 and a violent military dictatorship that lasted twenty-one years.
Under the aegis of the 1988 Constitution, which guarantees a wide range of social and individual
rights, Brazil has become a more democratic society, with greater political participation, broader
and more inclusive notions of citizenship, and the strengthening public institutions.
In spite of these advances, corruption remains endemic. A series of scandals involving politicians
of different party affiliations have outraged the public.
As a result, there have been widespread mobilizations demanding an end to illicit practices.
There have also been bold actions by state institutions, such as the Federal Police, the Federal
Prosecutors Service, and the Judiciary.
The combat against corruption is legitimate and necessary to improve the responsiveness of
Brazilian democracy. But in the current political climate, we find a serious risk that the rhetoric
of anti-corruption has been used to destabilize the current democratically-elected government,
further aggravating the serious economic and political crisis that the country is facing.
Instead of retaining political neutrality and respecting due process, sectors of the Judiciary, with
the support of major media interests, have become protagonists in undermining the rule of law.
During their investigations, some public officials have violated basic rights of citizens, such as
the presumption of innocence, the assurance of an impartial judiciary, attorney-client privilege,
and the guarantee of the right to privacy.
The Lava Jato Operation, led by the federal judge Sérgio Moro, has centralized the principal
corruption investigations over the last two years. These investigations have been marred by
repeated excesses and unjustified measures, such as arbitrary preventive detentions, dubious and
problematic plea-bargaining agreements, selective leaking of information to the media for
political purposes, and the illegal wiretapping of both the current President of the Republic and
the most recent former president.
All of this has taken place with the sustained support of powerful sectors of the media in an
unprecedented effort to influence public opinion for specific political ends. The combat against
corruption must be carried out within strict legal limits that protect the basic rights of the
accused.
The violation of democratic procedure represents a serious threat to democracy. When the armed
forces overthrew the government of President João Goulart in 1964, they used the combat
against corruption as one of their justifications. Brazil paid a high price for twenty-one years of
military rule. The fight for a democratic country has been long and arduous. Today, all those
who believe in a democratic Brazil need to speak out against these arbitrary measures that
threaten to erode the progress made over the course of the last three decades.
