The essay analyzes how F. Hayek’s economic proposal is fundamental for Bolsonarism in Brazil. It examines aspects of Hayek’s according to his statements about Brazilian politics in the 1970s. It introduces two of those responsible for Hayek’s popularization in Brazil, and then examines how the theoretical principles of Liberty are inconsistent with its actual practices. It shows how this conception of Freedom is essential for Bolsonarism to propose a general privatization of relationships as a safeguard for a protected personal sphere and a basis for the foundation of a new politics.
