A Ditadura Escancarada by Elio Gaspari
This incisive volume reconstructs the military regime’s shift from covert control to an openly repressive dictatorship, detailing the political decisions, institutional mechanisms and personal rivalries that consolidated power in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Drawing on archival documents, press reports and interviews, it describes the intensification of censorship, torture and political persecution, the role of the armed forces and civilian elites, and the economic and social consequences of hardline rule. Combining investigative reportage with historical analysis, the book shows how repression was normalized and how those years shaped Brazil’s subsequent political trajectory.
