A transnational ideological system community?Right-wing intellectuals and the “defense of Christian and Western civilization” in Brazil and France (1954-1964)

Résumé

his article outlines the initial findings of research exploring the exchange of ideas between France and Brazil, as well as the connections among intellectuals from both nations between 1954 and 1964. Our hypothesis posits the formation of a transnational ideological community, primarily focused on safeguarding Christian and Western civilization. This defense was seen as imperative due to the perceived challenges posed by the advancement of communism and the Algerian War (1954-1962). Structured into three sections, along with an introduction and conclusion, the first section introduces theoretical references, fostering discussions around the concept of a transnational ideological system community. The second section delves into the historiography of French and Brazilian intellectuals during the 1950s and 1960s. Lastly, the third section scrutinizes sources from right-wing and extreme right-wing intellectual circles in both countries. The article concludes by highlighting the shared perception among intellectuals on both sides of the Atlantic, recognizing the wars of independence in African countries and the Cuban Revolution in Latin America as components of a unified global threat to Christian and Western civilization.
