| dc.description.abstract | A pandemia de Covid-19 expôs as veias da desigualdade na América Latina. Com a iminência de um desastre socioeconómico, as políticas de emergência social pareciam inevitáveis. No entanto, embora os governos discutam sobre a continuidade de tais políticas e se as regras fiscais em vigor devem ser respeitadas, não surgiu nenhuma resposta sustentável. Este ensaio problematiza se a pandemia poderá representar uma conjuntura crítica para avançar com narrativas políticas que destacam as isenções fiscais e os privilégios de que gozam os ricos. Analisamos as medidas de mitigação adotadas pela Argentina, Brasil, Chile e Uruguai e suas repercussões no debate em torno das reformas fiscais progressivas para financiar regimes sociais. | |

| local.description.resumo | The pandemic of Covid-19 has exposed the veins of inequality in Latin America. With a socioeconomic disaster looming, social emergency policies seemed inevitable. Yet while governments argue over the continuity of such policies and whether the fiscal rules in place should be respected, no sustainable response has come out. This essay problematises whether the pandemic could represent a critical juncture to forge ahead with political narratives that highlight tax exemptions and privileges enjoyed by the rich. We analyse the mitigation measures adopted by Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay and their repercussions on the debate surrounding progressive tax reforms to fund social schemes. | |
