description: Ollie Johnson tells a new story of Brazilian party politics by highlighting heretofore neglected issues such as the ideologies and programmatic agendas of party factions and trans-party alliances. Focusing on the rise of leftist and nationalist party forces and the reactions of conservatives and moderates, Johnson uses the concept of realignment to analyze three central aspects of the Brazilian party electoral evolution, intra-party competition, and supra-party legislative alliances.
