(local) oligarchical or neo-oligarchical (leaderships) Explanation: Conforme comentado anteriormente, sugiro adicionar uma nota de rodapé que faça referência aos "coronéis" no Brasil. "Coronelismo (Portuguese pronunciation: [koɾoneˈlismu]) was the Brazilian political machine during the Old Republic (1889-1930), also known as the "rule of the coronels (sic)", responsible for the centralization of the political power in the hands of a locally dominant oligarch, known as a coronel, who would dispense favors in return for loyalty." "Oligarchy (from Greek ὀλιγαρχία (oligarkhía); from ὀλίγος (olígos), meaning 'few', and ἄρχω (arkho), meaning 'to rule or to command') is a form of power structure in which power rests with a small number of people. These people may be distinguished by nobility, wealth, family ties, education or corporate, religious or military control." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronelism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligarchy |
