| Summary: |
In contrast to other emancipatory movements troughout the continent, Brazil’s independence can be described as a conservative Revolution, once it was a slow process, which introduced the nation into modern constitutionalism without failing to preserve central institutions of the colonial period, notably, slavery and the monarchy. However, this result was not given, so that, until the final moments, distinct projects of independence coexisted. This article seeks to review two of these projects, ideally represented by José Bonifácio and Frei Caneca, distinguished above all by their positions on the theme of the centralization of political and economic power. |
