Nina Fernandes dos Santos, « Social media and democratic challenges: visibility inequalities in the 2013 Brazilian protests », HAL-SHS : sciences politiques, ID : 10670/1.gbcs1o
Brazil is currently experiencing one of the most complex political moments in its history. Although it is difficult to delimit the development of this situation over time, it is clear that the demonstrations that took place in June 2013 were a turning point in the Brazilian context. Until then, Brazil was living in a considerably stable period. During the governments of Lula da Silva (2003-2010) and the beginning of the government of Dilma Rousseff (2011-2016), the economy was developing rapidly, social policies improved as never the lives of the poorest population, the public system of education grew, and the rates of government approval were extremely high. Everything seemed to be fine.
