Abstract: This research analyzes the tactics and strategies of the left and its political parties within the Brazilian democratic arena between the “June Protests” of 2013 and the general elections of October 2022. Writing about the categories of Democracy and Left-Wing Political Parties from Marxian and Marxist perspectives in the contemporary period is challenging, due to the ongoing process of erosion of democratic rights and freedoms worldwide, particularly in Brazil. On several occasions and in very different countries, this process has not only called into question existing democratic institutions and the very idea of Democracy, but has also affected programmatic left-wing parties and those with a leftist tradition, especially in their capacity to address the problems of the contemporary world and to propose new alternatives to the status quo. This study outlines the fundamental characteristics of Liberal Democracy and the elements that constitute its crisis of legitimacy in the contemporary world and in Brazil. In addition, it examines the tactics and strategies of Left-Wing Political Parties in the country, taking as a temporal framework the period from the June Protests of 2013 to the third victory of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and the “Broad Front” led by the Workers’ Party (PT) in the Brazilian executive elections of 2022. The theoretical-methodological framework adopted in this research is based on Marxian theory as a means of understanding reality, using as a reference the division of society into conflicting social classes, and critically analyzing the categories of Democracy and Left-Wing Political Parties, as well as contributing to the historical contextualization of the political transformations that occurred between June 2013 and December 2022.
