Abstract
This article seeks to examine the possibility of torture being adopted as a government practice in Brazil, from 2019, due to the fact, unprecedented in the country’s history, that a candidate widely known to be in favour of torture was elected to the presidency of the Republic. This event poses unparalleled challenges to political research and action in Brazil from 2019 on. I will briefly examine the context of a naturalization of torture in the democratic period in Brazil and some hypotheses about the consequences of this practice in the coming years, considering the Latin American context and the influence of the practices of the French army during the independence process of its former colonies.
