SOUZA, Rodrigo Augusto de. The trajectory of the political ideas of Alceu Amoroso Lima: of counterrevolution to catholic modernism (1928-1938). Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.20, e028.  Epub 29-Jan-2022. ISSN 1982-7806.  https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v20-2021-28.

This article is intended to analyse the trajectory of the political ideas of Alceu Amoroso Lima (1893-1983) during the period that begins with his conversion to catholicism in 1928 and extends up to his contact with the ideas of Jacques Maritain (1882-1973) ten years later, in 1938. It is generally agreed that during this period Alceu Amoroso Lima underwent a change in his political conceptions, in a process that runs parallel with a relevant transformation in his political ideas. Under the influence of the ideas of Jackson de Figueiredo (1891-1928), Amoroso Lima initially engaged himself in counterrevolutionary activism, assuming the status of a catholic intellectual. Later on, after his contact with the ideas of Maritain, he changed his political convictions and assumed the Christian Democracy as the political doctrine that inspired his engagement in catholicism.
