Descripción
Sumario:The focus of this study is the political relationships between Alberto Pasqualini and Getúlio Vargas, with which I seek to (re)discuss interpretations regarding the Brazilian Labor Party (Partido Trabalhista Brasileiro) based on the dichotomy between the doctrinaire and the pragmatic wings respectively represented by Pasqualini and Vargas. By cross-referencing and analysis of primary sources (such as correspondence and newspapers), this article walks through the history of approximations and distancing between the two individuals. Said analysis starts in the previous years of the New State Order (Estado Novo), to then turn to examine the role played by Pasqualini in the candidacy of Vargas during the 1950’s election, seeking to overcome the traditional explanation that reduced his performance to the role of indoctrinator, in opposition to the political pragmatism of Vargas.
