contents Participation in democratic Brazil: from popular hegemony and innovation to middle-class protest Leonardo Avritzer Política June 2013 Social participation conservative movements change in the pattern of association Brazil became a reference case o f social participation after the success of participatory budgeting during the early 90s . The standard theory of the success of participation points to its positive impact on the political system. However, since 2013 Brazil has been experiencing some important changes regarding both participation and representation. In regard to representatio n, the strengthening of conservative forces in Congress is taking place because of a large increase in private financing. We are also seeing that participation alone cannot change the composition of the system of representation. The events that occurred in Brazil in June 2013, which led to changes in the patterns of social participation , ha ve attracted attention worldwide. The aim of this paper is to analy z e these changes in Brazil and point out how they influenced the country’s political system and impacte d the organization of Brazilian democracy. The data show how MPL presented its demands without politicizing them, keeping itself a single - issue movement (Figure 1). They also show how MBL politicized the movement (Figure 2), transforming it into an anti - co rruption movement positioned against president Dilma Rousseff. 2017 artículo científico 0104-6276 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32950439002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32950439002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32950439002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32950439002/32950439002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/329/32950439002/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=329 Opinião Pública application/pdf Universidade Estadual de Campinas Opinião Pública (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.23
