Abstract

The article examines the evolution of the bases of mass partisan support for the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) in Brazil since 1989. The political party founded in the late 1970s as a relatively small and radical party on the leftist fringe of the country's political spectrum. The party's longtime leader Luiz Inácio da Silva is featured.
