A sociedade brasileira tem presenciado, mais acentuadamente nos últimos anos, o aumento da presença de lideranças indígenas no cenário político regional, nacional e internacional. Organizações indígenas articulam-se em assembleias por todo o país. Pela primeira vez, a Funai é presidida por uma mulher indígena e cria-se o inédito Ministério dos Povos Indígenas, com uma representante proveniente do movimento indígena organizado. Neste livro, buscamos trazer uma contribuição para a compreensão da história do movimento indígena, desde suas primeiras manifestações, ainda durante o período da ditadura civil-militar, até os embates na Assembleia Nacional Constituinte(1987-1988) e os avanços conquistados na Constituição Federal de 1988.
A mais completa e refinada análise da experiência petista antes, durante e depois dos anos no poder. O PT foi o grande vencedor de eleições presidenciais da Nova República, produziu seu líder mais popular e, de certa forma, representa as vitórias e derrotas do Brasil no período. Talvez por isso, também tenha virado o bode expiatório dos defeitos do sistema para parte do público brasileiro. Com prosa brilhante e argumentação rigorosa, o sociólogo Celso Rocha de Barros passa a limpo meio século da história nacional e reconstrói a trajetória da mais amada e mais odiada de nossas agremiações políticas. Para além de esmiuçar as idiossincrasias da legenda, PT, uma história joga luz sobre as possibilidades e os limites da experiência da sociedade brasileira, uma democracia de alta desigualdade, com viés conservador.
