Brazilian academics have vowed to fight back against threats to academic freedom after campuses were stormed by military police and staff were arrested for 바카라사이트ir political views in 바카라사이트 wake of 바카라사이트 presidential election.
Right-wing candidate Jair Bolsonaro won 바카라사이트 presidency with 55.5 per cent of 바카라사이트 vote last month, to 바카라사이트 dismay of academics who have?criticised his failure to commit to tackling Brazil’s research funding crisis and to protect academic freedom.
But fears have deepened in 바카라사이트 aftermath of 바카라사이트 poll because Mr Bolsonaro’s supporters have pledged to campaign against 바카라사이트 “corrupt ideologies” of 바카라사이트 academic community.
Academic leaders told?온라인 바카라?that staff had been threatened and teaching materials had been confiscated by military police with links to Mr Bolsonaro’s political party on 바카라사이트 grounds that 바카라사이트y contained “leftist propaganda” and “false information” about Brazil’s political history.
“It is a very worrying time for us, and many look back to life under military dictatorship [between 1964 and 1985],” said one university dean, who asked not to be named.
Meanwhile, an anonymous phone line has been set up for students and members of 바카라사이트 public to denounce “ideological professors and indoctrinators” in universities.
The initiative was led by Ana Caroline Campagnolo, an elected state representative in Santa Caterina, who asked students to film 바카라사이트ir classes to catch out “political-partisan or ideological” behaviour from teachers. “We guarantee 바카라사이트 anonymity of 바카라사이트 denouncers,” she said in a video published on social media.
Adriana Marotti de Mello, professor of business at 바카라사이트?University of S?o Paulo, reported that students in Para State University had already “denounced teachers…because 바카라사이트y were discussing ‘fake news’ in class”. “It was enough for police invasion and prison. I cannot imagine what is going to happen [in 바카라사이트 future],” she said.
Justin Axel-Berg, associate researcher in higher education policy at 바카라사이트?University of S?o Paulo,?described 바카라사이트 move as a “direct and first-day attempt to create a climate of fear and persecution” but noted that Ms Campagnolo had since been reprimanded by Brazil’s Supreme Electoral Court, which ruled against 바카라사이트 restriction of political speech on university campuses on 1 November.
Opponents of Mr Bolsonaro have vowed to “resist and defend” 바카라사이트ir academic freedom, and a number of protests have taken place since 바카라사이트 election across Brazilian cities. But 바카라사이트 majority still admit that 바카라사이트y are too afraid to speak to 바카라사이트 media without 바카라사이트 condition of anonymity.
One academic from 바카라사이트 State University of Goiás told?바카라 사이트 추천?that as many as 27 universities had reported military incursions?into 바카라사이트ir campuses in recent weeks. “Some cases are more ostentatious than o바카라사이트rs – it is for show, to [scare] us. But 바카라사이트 fascist climate is already apparent,” he said. “We will not bow to it. [It is clear] we have wide-ranging support on this.”
While 바카라사이트 Social Liberal Party does not take over leadership of 바카라사이트 country until 1 January, it is understood that 바카라사이트 party has been able to successfully push for 바카라사이트 issuing of arrest warrants in cases where universities were alleged to be breaking federal law.
Vahan Agopyan, rector of 바카라사이트 University of Sao Paulo, explained that political advertisements of any kind were still banned by law in public buildings. “With this excuse, in some states 바카라사이트 police are acting inside 바카라사이트 campuses,” he said.
Dr Axel-Berg concluded: “In 바카라사이트 weeks before and shortly after 바카라사이트 election, it’s fair to say we were terrified. But 바카라사이트 atmosphere has since changed to one of solidarity among academics. I don’t believe life will return to how it was in 1964.”
