Abstract

The social security reform was an important issue of atritrion present in the presidential election of 2018. This article aims to show the foremost narratives used by the party coalitions involved in the elections about this issue. For this, I explore the governement programs liberated by all the coalitions, analyzing them with the help of agenda setting theroy as well as the new studies about the Welfare State. With this, I show that most narratives centered themselves around economical postulates instead of social ones. This can become a problem for the future of the Welfare State in Brazil.
