Gustavo Dodt Barroso (December 29, 1888 in Fortaleza – December 3, 1957 in Rio de Janeiro〔REES, Philip, ''Biographical Dictionary of the Extreme Right Since 1890, pp. 25-26〕) was a Brazilian writer and politician associated with Brazilian Integralism. == Biography == He was half German by birth, his mother coming from Württemberg. Barroso made his name as a journalist and was for a time involved with the socialist Clube Maximo Gorki.〔 However his politics became more conservative after he secured a law degree in Rio de Janeiro in 1910. He soon became an important figure in Ceará state, serving variously as Secretary of the Interior and Justice, and being elected a Representative in the National Congress. He even formed part of the Brazilian delegation to the Paris Peace Conference, 1919.〔 He would later rise to hold such positions as president of the Academia Brasileira de Letras (Brazilian Academy) and secretary-general of the International Committee of Legal Advisers.〔 In 1933, Barroso joined the ''Integralista'' party that had fascist characteristics. He soon became the head of the extreme anti-Jewish faction within the ''Integralista'' party.〔 Noted for his hard-line antisemitism, he took charge of the group's militia from 1934 to 1936 before being appointed to the party's Supreme Council. An extensive writer, his polemical works at this time included many anti-semitic books and newspaper articles in ''Fon-Fon'' and ''Século XX'' magazines.〔 Due to political differences Barroso came to be regarded as dangerous by the more constitutionally minded ''Integralista'' party's leader, Plínio Salgado, who suspended him from collaborating for six months with the party's newspaper, ''A Ofensiva''.〔 However Barroso continued to pursue his antisemitic ideals, translating ''The Protocols of the Elders of Zion'' into Portuguese and even suggesting setting up concentration camps.〔 Following the formation of the Estado Novo dictatorship of Getúlio Vargas (1938–1945), Barroso was arrested in 1938 after the ''Integralista'' party attempted a violent ''coup d´etat''.〔 However Barroso was never tried due to a lack of evidence of his involvement in the ''coup d´etat''. He subsequently left political activism and became largely accepting of Getúlio Vargas posterior constitutional government (1951–1954), serving as a special ambassador to Uruguay (1952) and Peru (1954). He was awarded a posthumous honorary doctorate from a Rio de Janeiro University.〔 A museum in Fortaleza, his home town, the ''Museu Gustavo Barroso'', bears his name.〔(Museums details )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gustavo Barroso」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
