Bolsonarism at the Ballot Box

If things go badly, the upcoming elections in Brazil may be the last ones for some time to come. On election day, voters face a stark choice not just between two candidates, incumbent Jair Bolsonaro and former president Lula. They also cast their ballot on the peculiar brand of illiberal government known as Bolsonarism that will not disappear on election day even of Bolsonaro loses. This blog symposium discusses Bolsonarism at the ballot box from the perspective of comparative constitutional law and different varieties of constitutionalism.
