List of political parties in Brazil

Brazil has a multi-party system since 1979, when the country's military dictatorship disbanded an enforced two-party system and allowed the creation of multiple parties.[1] All candidates for federal, state, municipal, and Federal District offices must be nominated by a political party. Independent politicians are not allowed to run for office in Brazil.[2]

The Brazilian National Congress has been since characterized by political fragmentation, reaching a peak of 35 registered political parties in 2018, 30 of which were represented in congress after the 2018 general election[3][4][5], with an effective number of parties of 16.5.[6] An electoral threshold introduced in 2017, which restricted access to party subsidies and free party political broadcasts, combined with the end of coalitions in proportional elections, has since caused this number to decrease.[6][7] Since 2021, parties are allowed to unite under party federations, with a minimum duration of four years, sharing a common statute and leadership.[8]

Since the 2022 general election, the Liberal Party (PL), the Workers' Party (PT), the Brazil Union (UNIÃO), the Progressives (PP), the Social Democratic Party (PSD), the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB) and the Republicans together control over 80% of the Brazilian Congress, along with over 70% of the mayors in municipalities.[9][10]

Brazilian parties have access to party subsidies in the form of Fundo Partidário (lit. 'Party Fund') and Fundo Eleitoral (lit. 'Electoral Fund')[11], and a system of free party political broadcasts during election time known as the horário eleitoral gratuito.[12]

Since 1982, Brazilian political parties have been given an electoral number to make it easier for illiterate people to vote. Initially, it was a one-digit number: 1 for PDS, 2 for PDT, 3 for PT, 4 for PTB, and 5 for PMDB.[13] When it became clear that there was going to be more than nine parties, two-digit numbers were assigned, with the first five parties having a "1" added to their former one-digit number (PDS becoming number 11, PDT 12, PT 13, PTB 14, and PMDB 15).[14] Political parties often change their names, but they can retain their number.

Party federations

On 28 September 2021, Law No. 14,208 was enacted, establishing "federations" (Portuguese: federações).[29] These federations are associations between parties, considered as a single party in elections and legislative activities such as the creation of caucuses and committees.[152] The associated parties must belong to the federation for at least four years from the date of its registration, with penalties if they leave before the deadline.[29]

The establishment of party federations followed the abolition of coalitions in proportional elections, which allowed parties to function as single in seat allocation. This change was implemented through Constitutional Amendment No. 97 of 2017, which also introduced an electoral threshold for future parliamentary elections.[153] Parties and federations that surpass this threshold gain access to public subsidies through the Party Fund (Portuguese: Fundo Partidário) and are entitled to free advertising on radio and television.

Below are listed the federations currently registered with the Superior Electoral Court:[154]

Em respeito aos fatos, é preciso registrar que nenhuma destas virtudes fez-se manifestar em Minas, tanto pelo perfil do eventual ocupante do Palácio da Liberdade (como se dizia) quanto, se não mesmo especialmente, pelas ideologias frequentadas pelo chamado "Partido Novo" a que o Governo (!?) de Minas pertenceu durante estes anos. Em algo como uma ultradireita, aproximam-se de uma mundivisão anarcocapitalista que, talvez, possa ser melhor compreendida pela via da chave de leitura que propomos: são apenas piratas, portando-se frente ao Estado exatamente como os piratas de antanho se comportavam frente às potestades de outrora. [With respect to the facts, it is necessary to note that none of these virtues were manifested in Minas Gerais, both due to the profile of the eventual occupant of the Palácio da Liberdade (as was said) and, if not especially, due to the ideologies favored by the so-called “Partido Novo” to which the government (!?) of Minas Gerais belonged during these years. In something like an ultra-right, they approach an anarcho-capitalist worldview that, perhaps, can be better understood through the reading key that we propose: they are just pirates, behaving before the State exactly as the pirates of yesteryear behaved before the powers of yesteryear.]

O quadro abaixo nos permite visualizar de forma mais nítida estes resultados. Nele agrupamos os partidos em quatro grandes blocos: a) a extrema direita: (PL, Republicanos e Novo); b) o "centrão": PP, PSD, União, PRD, Podemos e todos os outros pequenos partidos deste campo político; c) o centro tradicional: MDB, PSDB e Cidadania; e d) a esquerda: PDT, PSB, PT, PSOL, PV, Rede e PCdoB. Este é um agrupamento meio arbitrário, mas eficiente para efeitos da compreensão da dinâmica política, pois se pode perceber a evolução dos partidos de uma eleição para a outra. Para isto este tipo de agrupamento em blocos pode ser bastante esclarecedor, como se pode ver abaixo. [The table below allows us to visualize these results more clearly. In it we group the parties into four large blocks: a) the extreme right: (PL, Republicans and Novo); b) the “centrão”: PP, PSD, União, PRD, Podemos and all the other small parties in that political field; c) the traditional center: MDB, PSDB and Cidadania; and d) the left: PDT, PSB, PT, PSOL, PV, Rede and PCdoB. This is a somewhat arbitrary grouping, but it is efficient for understanding political dynamics, as it allows us to see the evolution of parties from one election to the next. For this reason, this type of grouping into blocks can be quite enlightening, as can be seen below.]
