Brazilian Social Democracy Party
The Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB) is a political party in Brazil, founded in 1988. It emerged from a group of social democrats and has positioned itself as a center-right party, advocating for social justice, economic development, and democratic governance. The PSDB has been influential in Brazilian politics, particularly during the presidency of Fernando Henrique Cardoso, who served from 1995 to 2002.
The party's platform emphasizes market-oriented reforms, social programs, and environmental sustainability. Over the years, the PSDB has faced challenges, including internal divisions and competition from other parties like the Workers' Party (PT). Despite this, it remains a significant player in Brazil's political landscape.
