political ideas, Digital history, liberalism, social networks
This work aims to analyze a contemporary political movement in Brazil: the Movimento Brasil Livre, a
self-styled liberal group. To achieve this purpose, we carried out a mapping of the movement's main
ideas, identified in its publications on the social platforms of YouTube and Facebook. In this process, we
explored the strategies used by the movement in its social networks, including aspects such as
language, semiotics and the political agenda actually adopted. Therefore, this research is configured as
a documentary analysis that is inserted at the intersection between digital history and the political
dynamics of the contemporary world.
