Qualidade da democracia no contexto do goberno Bolsonaro: percepções de jovens integrantes de grupos e movimentos sociais da Campo Grande/MS

Abstract

This research aims to understand the perceptions of the quality of democracy among young members of social groups and movements in the city of Campo Grande/MS, during the Bolsonaro government. These perceptions arise from the social and political context that characterizes the first three and a half years of his mandate. The research is framed within a mixed-methods methodology, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches through strategies applied to a Case Study. For data analysis, techniques of univariate and bivariate descriptive statistical analysis are used, which, together, seek to answer the question: what is the perception of the quality of democracy, in the context of the government of Jair Bolsonaro, among young members of social groups and movements in Campo Grande/MS? It is concluded that the perception of the quality of democracy under the said government is markedly negative, being considered disrespected, threatened, and weakened. Based on the results obtained, it is intended to contribute to reflection on the subject, especially concerning the youth of Campo Grande, promoting debate, political awareness, and the implementation of public policies.
