Resumo

 Neste artigo, relatamos o processo e os resultados do simpósio “Questões críticas: meio ambiente, direitos humanos e democracia no Brasil sob Bolsonaro”. O simpósio representou uma tentativa de se entender esse novo Brasil que tem intrigado observadores e acadêmicos em anos recentes. Os temas que emergiram como achados de nossas discussões incluem: 1) o surgimento de novas subjetividades e identidades políticas que tem formado e transformado o tecido social brasileiro; 2) processos de desmonte institucional e de políticas públicas em áreas cruciais para o desenvolvimento humano e sustentável no Brasil; e 3) tentativas de resistência a essas mudanças, algumas delas com mais sucesso do que outras. Finalmente, o artigo apresenta reflexões sobre o papel da comunidade acadêmica de Brasilianistas ao buscar entender e influenciar o presente e o futuro do país.
