Synopsis

Building Democracy in Brazil: the Politics of Constitutional Change, 1985-1995 is an empirical analysis of the constitution-making process that Brazil underwent in the 1980s as it moved from an authoritarian military regime to a democratic civilian government. The study explores the institutional and political context from which the process departed as well as the nature of the key social and political actors. It then examines in depth the different stages of the constitutional elaboration.
