Abstract

DE MENDONCA, Sonia Regina. Brazil independence from historiographic perspective. Rev. Pilquen [online]. 2010, n.12. ISSN 1851-3123.

The paper contextualizes the peculiarities of Brazilian political emancipation process, assuming three basic presuppositions: that it was a reasonably long process, over determined by imposition of hegemonic interest groups of Southeast over the other regions; that the syntony between Territory and State only acquired its configuration from a "inner expansion" and that its consolidation occurred since a conquest -military, political and cultural- whose basis was slavery.

Keywords : Brazil; Southeast Hegemony; Slavery.
