- Title
O DIAGNÓSTICO DA PSICOPATIA AJUDA A ESCLARECER A ATUAL CRISE POLÍTICA BRASILEIRA?
- Authors
VASCONCELOS, Eduardo Mourão
- Abstract
Journalists and political analysts have ascribed to Brazilian president Bolsonaro a diagnosis of mental illness and particularly, of psychopathy. This brief essay proposes que any psychiatric diagnosis may point to a serious subjective aspect of a government, but individualizes, reduces and hides a much more complex collective phenomena and serious political, social and public health crisis. However, the text does not aim at dispensing the contribution of subjective dimensions in the present crisis, proposing for this purpose the use of categories and concepts from the French psychosociology approach, in order to subsidize this evaluation, combining it with the examination of political, economical, social, cultural and communication processes. The result is the acknowledgement of a crisis with tragical dimensions in the country, which requires the mobilization of all democratic stakeholders to confront it.
