This article explores the influence of neo-Pentecostalism in the Brazilian political sphere, focusing on the points of contact established between Jair Bolsonaro's reactionary populism and religious conservatism. The article argues that neo-Pentecostalism provided a theological and ideological basis for the construction of Bolsonaro's reactionary populism, based on the legitimation of a radical conception of citizenship based on religiosity. The article demonstrates that neo-Pentecostalism has become an influential force in Brazilian politics, helping to connect the Bolsonaro government to the far right, which raises important questions about the role of religion in politics and the challenges of balancing religious freedom and secular principles of democracy. in a populist, authoritarian and reactionary government.
Keywords: Bolsonaro, Neopentecostalism, Far-right, Populism.
