Resumo
The objective of the present article is to identify the emergence of charismatic traits in the Brazilian legal order since 1964. By encouraging the dominance of a set of rules based on absolute principles and elaborated by the centers of power, the new legal order contributes both to an increasing unpredictability of the parameters that regulate the functioning of the political system and to the introduction of a series of limitations of the functions traditionally exerted by some institutions in this area. One may thus observe a tendency towards the absorption of these functions by the institution in power, and a simultaneous restriction of the action of the Congress and political partie5 as they lose their legitimizing rôle. The attempt to establish new bases of legitimacy through the recourse to permanent comprob2tion of the government's efficacy combined with a distinction between source of power and authority agent, suggests that there are charismatic components in the political order itself. These concern an institutional type of charisma, which may be considered as an attribute of the military corporation, and which is naturally opposed to the emergence of a personal charisma.
