Until the Storm Passes: Politicians, Democracy, and the Demise of Brazil's Military Dictatorship
Until the Storm Passes reveals how Brazil's 1964–1985 military dictatorship contributed to its own demise by alienating the civilian political elites who initially helped bring it to power. Based on exhaustive research conducted in nearly twenty archives in five countries, as well as on oral histories with surviving politicians from the period, this book tells the surprising story of how the alternatingly self-interested and heroic resistance of the political class contributed decisively to Brazil's democratization. As they gradually turned against military rule, politicians began to embrace a political role for the masses that most of them would never have accepted in 1964, thus setting the stage for the breathtaking expansion of democracy that Brazil enjoyed over the next three decades.
"In this remarkable study, Bryan Pitts shows how Brazil's political class used notions of privilege and honor in order to navigate the spaces between the military dictatorship and popular movements. Through innovative research—including audio recordings of legislative proceedings made available to readers of this book—Until the Storm Passes skillfully captures the atmosphere of a pivotal moment in Brazilian history." JACOB BLANC, author of Before the Flood: The Itaipu Dam and the Visibility of Rural Brazil
A timely and original addition to our understanding of the transition from military to democratic rule in Brazil. By providing an in-depth rereading of key political events during the dictatorship's final years, Pitts fills a gap in the existing scholarship by advancing a somewhat revisionist, important argument about the relevance of the political class in the country's recent history."

SHOP‐FLOOR LABOR ORGANIZATION IN ARGENTINA FROM EARLY PERONISM TO THE "PROCESO" MILITARY DICTATORSHIP
In: Working USA: the journal of labor & society, Band 14, Heft 3, S. 305-332
ISSN: 1743-4580
This article focuses on a crucial aspect of the Argentine labor movement that, in spite of its importance, has not been adequately examined by the existing historiography: the high degree of union structure penetration at the shop‐floor level through means of shop‐stewards and comisiones internas (CI). First, it provides a basic definition of shop‐stewards and CI for the Argentine case. Second, it briefly analyzes the history of these bodies from the early 1940s to the early 1980s, taking into account the most important structural transformations during this period, in particular the transition from an economic model driven by import‐substituting industrialization from the 1930s to the mid‐1970s to a process of deindustrialization from that moment onward. Third, it contends that these shop‐stewards and CI experienced tensions and contradictions, some of which were related to those present within the Argentine industrial working class. Finally, it underlines the importance of taking into account this rich history of shop‐floor organization to understand the strength of the Argentine labor movement in this period.
