Os livros sobre política publicados recentemente pelas editoras evangélicas brasileiras

Abstract

The number of evangelicals has been growing in Brazil, which is verified by both absolute numbers and percentages in relation to the total population. Even though it is a very diverse group, its influence has increased, especially in the fields of culture and politics - as has become clear in the last elections. They own several television programs, control a broadcaster and have a significant bench in the National Congress, which guarantees them a weight in defining the directions of the country. Their concerns are no longer limited to the agenda of morals and customs, but are also moving toward economics and political organization. In this sense, the works on politics published by the evangelical publishers are important. There has been a noticeable increase in the number of these publications, including some publishers creating specific sections for this theme. If, on the one hand, they are not works of great circulation, on the other hand, they are consumed by pastors, teachers and students of theology that will influence or even determine the political position of the faithful of the churches. Therefore it is important to map and analyze this production in order to understand the evangelical worldviews that are spreading throughout the country. Thus, I intend to briefly present and analyze some of these evangelical publishers and their publications on politics.
