O Pobre De Direita by Jessé Souza
A sociological analysis of why many low-income Brazilians endorse conservative, right-wing positions, arguing that this alignment arises from historical class formation and cultural patterns—religious moralism, meritocratic beliefs, and racialized hierarchies—that have been reinforced by elite discourse. The book shows how narratives of individual responsibility and anti-corruption rhetoric fragment class solidarity and make redistributive policies politically unpopular, thereby perpetuating inequality and enabling elite dominance, and it proposes that confronting these symbolic and cultural dynamics is essential to address structural injustice.
