Converting Land-Holding Elites to National Politics -
Following the 1930 revolution, the Brazilian state underwent unprecedented centralization. New public institutions were set up in order to modernize the country politically, economically and socially. The analysis of the biographies and political activities of this movement's two major leaders in the Nordeste - the one civilian, the other military - shows how descendants of the major plantation families contributed to the national state's reconstruction. Located in outlying areas, these families, on the decline, were looking for ways to improve their situation. The newly introduced institutional innovations and their newly acquired authority enabled descendants to establish or reinforce their allies' power at the local level. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
