ABSTRACT In June 2013, widespread popular unrest unexpectedly shook Brazil whilst the FIFA Football Confederations Cup was taking place. Nicknamed as the ‘demonstrations cup’ by protesters, this was one of the greatest uprisings in the history of the country, with its effects still being felt and discussed nationally and internationally. Despite the general consensus on the more immediate causes that sparked the movement – such as the protests by the Movimento Passe Livre against a 20-cent bus fare hike in São Paulo, heavy-handed police repression and the use of social media – there still lacks a holistic explanation about the historical processes that formed the inflammable scenario that triggered those demonstrations and their rapid dissemination. Using quantitative and qualitative data related to recent urban socio-economic changes and civil society mobilisation trends, the present paper constructs an original genealogy of the June 2013 ‘demonstrations cup’. As a result, it indicates a unique confluence of multiple causal factors, such as the rapid and generalised erosion of real income in the Brazilian metropolises, the degeneration of political representativeness and traditional movements, the emergence of new mobilisation tools and the dissemination of anti-mega-events critical subjectivities – hence providing a comprehensive and empirically informed account.

仅因为20美分?巴西“示范杯”的家谱

摘要2013年6月,在国际足联联合会杯举办期间,巴西民众普遍感到不安。被抗议者昵称为“示威杯”,这是该国历史上最伟大的起义之一,其影响仍在国内和国际上都得到感受到和讨论。尽管就引发这一运动的更直接原因达成了普遍共识,例如莫维门托·帕斯·利弗尔(Movimento Passe Livre)抗议在圣保罗对公交车加价20美分的抗议,严厉的警察镇压措施以及对社交媒体的使用,但仍然缺乏对形成易燃场景的历史过程的整体解释,这些事件触发了这些示威活动并迅速传播。本文使用与近期城市社会经济变化和公民社会动员趋势相关的定量和定性数据,构建了2013年6月“示范杯”的原始谱系。结果,它表明了多种因果因素的独特汇合,例如巴西大都市中实际收入的迅速和普遍减少,政治代表性和传统运动的退化,新动员工具的出现以及反犹太主义的传播。大型活动的关键主观性-因此提供了全面的和经验丰富的信息。
