Abstract
This article explains by what means ongoing democratic backsliding takes place in Brazil, after the pinnacle of its democratic experience. Unlike mainstream concerns about the death of democracies and quality of democracy, it started neither by the action of outsiders, nor through Executive aggrandizement. Institutions regarded as protectors against abuse of power, such as media, the Judiciary, Public Prosecution and Parliament, led to democratic disrupture. Consequences were militarization, party system deterioration and undemocratic elections, favouring far-right extremist Bolsonaro.
