6 A political implosion

Abstract

Chapter 6 continues to chart the fall of the ruling Workers’ Party, with the Lava Jato corruption scandal meaning that many Brazilians now saw Rousseff at the centre of a corrupt administration. The president was impeached and Michel Temer installed as her replacement. Former president Lula was convicted and imprisoned in 2018 for his apparent role in the corruption. The political stage was now set for the entrance of the outsider, Jair Bolsonaro.
