Projeto História, São Paulo, v. 38, p. 79-95, jun. 2009.2176-2767http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/13454During Sarney’s Government (1985- 1989) the political transition process started in the Militar Dictatorship came to an end. The rise of a civil government required several actions which continued / overcame institutional reforms that had been in progress since the establishment of a new liberal-democratic institutional- ism. In those years the conjuncture crisis set at the 70’s turned into a hegemony crisis with a strong division between the bourgeois fractions in one hand and the political rise of the oppressed classes in the other hand. Although, the way this re- placement process took place prevented the hegemony crisis from bearing a new popular power. It also prevented the state from turning into a non-autocratic way, thus expressing a remarkably “peace- maker” and transformer content with the preservation of many attributes from the authoritarian institutionalism.porAcesso AbertoEstado autocrático-burguêsInstitucionalidade políticaTransformismoAutocratic-bourgeois stateTransformationPolitical institutionalismArtigo
