Brazil's Problem Is Bigger Than Bolsonaro

Original: Brazil's Problem Is Bigger Than Bolsonaro https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/05/opinion/brazil-elections-bolsonaro-lula.htm

A New York Times opinion piece argues that Brazil's political crisis extends beyond Jair Bolsonaro himself. Writing around the October 2026 elections, the author contends that the forces behind Bolsonaro's movement remain a deeper problem for Brazilian democracy, posing a challenge for Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and the country's institutions regardless of Bolsonaro's personal political fate.

Why now: Ongoing debate over Brazilian elections and the future of Bolsonaro's movement keeps the country's democratic health in the spotlight.
