AB - Since the end of the 20th century, the state of democracy has become increasingly complicated. In many parts of the world, traditional representative democracy is frequently influenced by “street politics” often divided into extremes. There are two contradictory views of this phenomenon: as an “extension of democracy,” or as a “crisis of democracy.” The slogan inscribed in the middle of Brazilian flag is “Ordem e Progresso,” which means in English “order and progress.” However, Brazilians say their country is only "progressing" at night when politicians sleep. In addition to the question of why countries succeed and why they fail, the growing inequality and polarization within a country adds to the uncertainty of the future. This article examines whether the collapse of the leftist regime, which has been in power in Brazil for 15 years, represents an “edge of democracy” or whether the ruling of the leftist regime was a “crisis of democracy,” as argued by the currently ruling right-wing forces. It aims to project the possibility of integration and the “new order and progress” they are looking for in a severely divided society.
