| Abstract | Karl Polanyi identifi ed a double movement which took place during the bour- geoisie hegemony when, instead of liberalism, it has made use of interventionism to perpetuate its domination over the working class. Several studies have tried to update his analysis by identifying the double movement nowadays. Nevertheless, the aca- demia has not addressed the possibility of a reversed phenomenon where the working class would make use of liberalism to perpetuate itself in power. Th is paper aims at analysing the Brazilian case where the Partido dos Trabalhadores, a proxy for the work- ing class, has implemented pro-market policies in higher education. Whereas the party has not passed through structural reforms such as the British and German working class parties, it has drastically changed its approach to policy-making and campaigning since its origin in 1980. Th e study concludes that a reversed double movement may occur when the working class is in charge of the government. |
