Juracy Montenegro Magalhães GCC •GCIH (4 August 1905 –15 May 2001) was a Brazilian military officer and politician. [1] During his career,Magalhães was the state governor of Bahia twice:between 1931—1937 (federal interventor appointed by Getúlio Vargas) and 1959—1963 (elected);senator for Bahia (1955–1959),Minister of Justice (1965–66) and Minister of External Relations (1966–67) under president Humberto de Alencar Castello Branco,and Brazilian Ambassador to the United States. He was also the chairman of state oil company Petrobras (1954) and chairman of then state-run mining company Vale do Rio Doce. [2]
He was the son of Joaquim Magalhães and Júlia Montenegro Magalhães. Having completed high school at the Lyceum of Ceará,he entered the military career. In 1927 he became an aspirant. A member of the tenentist movement,at the age of 25 he stood out during the so-called Revolution of 1930,leading a military column that traveled the northeast along the coast,entering the territories of Alagoas,Pernambuco,Sergipe and Bahia. [ citation needed ]
His military career was successful. In 1933 he reached the rank of Captain;in 1940,that of Major;Lieutenant Colonel in 1945;Colonel in 1950 and General in 1957.
Despite being born in Ceará,it was in Bahia that he found his definitive address. He won a house of friends,in the capital of Bahia,at Monte Serrat –the same one where his son,Juracy Magalhães Júnior,committed suicide. His other son Jutahy Magalhães was also a politician and his grandson Jutahy Magalhães Júnior is a federal deputy.
His political trajectory was greatly benefited by his proximity to the military. He held the following positions:senator of the Republic,federal deputy,military attachéand ambassador of Brazil to the United States,Minister of Justice and Foreign Affairs. He was also the first President of Petrobras and chaired the Vale do Rio Doce Company. [2]
Magalhães occupied the government of the State of Bahia for three terms (the first,initiated as an intervener,was later endorsed by the Legislative Assembly –here considered as a single term,since there was no continuity solution).
Juracy Magalhães was a lieutenant in the Army when he took over the government,appointed interventor by Getúlio Vargas –a position that promoted him as one of the articulators of the coup that ended,in Brazil,the Old Republic. He took over on 19 September 1931,and remained there until 25 April 1935,when he resumed –this time through an indirect election,by the Legislative Assembly –remaining in office until 10 November 1937.
The task was not,at first,easy:the position was claimed by the old politician JJ Seabra,who had supported Getúlio and had already been governor. Juracy was then a young lieutenant,only 25,almost 26 years old. His condition as an "outsider" only aggravated the reaction of the old chiefs of local politics,who aroused great opposition to him. But since then he has shown great ability to overcome these challenges,leaving them even more strengthened. Juracy also led a secret life:he had been an FBI informant during the last Vargas administration and confided to Adolf Berle that he had conspired against him in 1945. A noteworthy fact was that,during his tenure,the first arrest of the future leftist leader,Carlos Marighella,occurred,for having written a poem that criticized the interventor.
Among his accomplishments,he started the construction works of the Rui Barbosa Forum –interrupted by the interventionist Landulfo Alves,who followed him,and finally resumed and concluded by Otávio Mangabeira .
In the place where the home of the tribune Cezar Zama had been,in Praça de Piedade,he built the headquarters of the Public Security Secretariat –the centralizing body of repression,in the totalitarian regime that lived in the country at that time.
Inaugurated the Bahia Cocoa Institute in 1936,a ceremony attended by Getúlio Vargas himself.
In 1935/1936,the government of Juracy Magalhães interrupted the activities of the Integralist Brazilian Action –AIB (1932–1937),a movement idealized by the politician,poet and journalist Plínio Salgado,in the State of Bahia,with numerous conflicts with the police forces over the Integralists in an attempt to continue promoting their activities,with numerous arrests and deaths occurring [ 5 ],later on,justice guarantees the right of Integralists to continue their activities in the region.
On 10 November 1937,President Getúlio Vargas established the Estado Novo,a unitary dictatorial regime . Despite being loyal to the government,Juracy was opposed to that action by the president,which was in fact characterized as a coup . On the same day,he made a statement on Rádio Sociedade da Bahia and,on the 11th,he transmitted the position to the military commander in the State,leaving the Government Palace.
The Vargas Era is the period in the history of Brazil between 1930 and 1946 when the country was governed by president Getúlio Vargas. The period from 1930 to 1937 is known as the Second Brazilian Republic,and the other part of Vargas Era,from 1937 until 1946 is known as the Third Brazilian Republic.
The Brazilian Socialist Party is a political party in Brazil. It was founded in 1947,before being abolished by the military regime in 1965 and re-organised in 1989 after the re-democratisation of Brazil. It elected six Governors in 2010,becoming the second largest party in number of state governments,behind only PSDB. In addition to that,it won 34 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and three seats in the Senate,besides having been a member of the For Brazil to Keep on Changing coalition,which elected Dilma Rousseff as President of Brazil.
João de Deus Mena Barreto was a Brazilian general and politician who briefly served as the president of Brazil while being a member of the provisional military junta of 1930. Born into a historically military family,Mena Barreto took up a military career in 1890. He fought in several internal conflicts,including the Federalist Revolution,a civil war,the 18 of the Copacabana Fort revolt,and a 1924 revolt in the North. With the Revolution of 1930 in Brazil,Mena Barreto and Augusto Tasso Fragoso orchestrated an uprising in the Federal District,overthrowing President Washington Luís and establishing the 1930 junta. After the junta transferred power to revolutionaries,Mena Barreto became the federal interventor for Rio de Janeiro and a mediator in the Constitutionalist Revolution of 1932.
João Punaro Bley was a Brazilian military and public administrator.
Gustavo Adolfo Luiz Dodt da Cunha Barroso was a Brazilian lawyer,writer and politician associated with Brazilian Integralism and antisemitism. He was also known by the pseudonym João do Norte. Being considered a master of Brazilian folklore,he was the first director of the National Historical Museum and one of the leaders of the Brazilian Integralist Action,being one of its most prominent ideologists.
Getúlio Dornelles Vargas was a Brazilian lawyer and politician who served as the 14th and 17th president of Brazil,from 1930 to 1945 and from 1951 until his suicide in 1954. Due to his long and controversial tenure as Brazil's provisional,constitutional,dictatorial and democratic leader,he is considered by historians as the most influential Brazilian politician of the 20th century.
The Estado Novo,or Third Brazilian Republic,began on 10 November 1937,and consolidated Getúlio Vargas' power. Vargas had assumed leadership of Brazil following the 1930 revolution that ended the First Republic. The Estado Novo ended politically on 29 October 1945,and officially on 31 January 1946. It was characterized by Brazilian nationalism,centralized power,anti-communism and authoritarianism.

Olímpio Mourão Filho was a Brazilian military officer known as the author of the Cohen Plan,a forged document used to justify the Estado Novo coup in 1937,and,as head of the 4th Military Region/Infantry Division,as the precipitator of the 1964 coup d'état that installed the military dictatorship in Brazil. He reached the rank of army general and ended his career presiding over the Superior Military Court (STM) from 1967 to 1969.

The 1937 Brazilian coup d'état,also known as the Estado Novo coup,was a military coup in Brazil led by President Getúlio Vargas with the support of the Armed Forces on 10 November 1937.
João Cabanas was a Brazilian military officer in the São Paulo State Public Force,currently the São Paulo State Military Police. Cabanas graduated from the São Paulo Public Force Officer School and also graduated with a bachelor's degree of Law from the São Paulo Law School.
Joaquim de Magalhães Cardoso Barata,was a Brazilian army officer and politician who governed the state of Paráthree times,twice as federal interventor for the Vargas Government and once as an elected governor during the Fourth Brazilian Republic,a period where he also served as senator for the state.
The Integralist Uprising was a failed coup by the Brazilian Integralist Action (AIB) against the government of president Getúlio Vargas during the Estado Novo in Brazil. The AIB was created due to the radicalization of politics following the successful Revolution of 1930,which had brought Vargas to power,and the 1932 Constitutionalist Revolution,which had undermined revolutionary politics in favor of political extremes. Its creator,Plínio Salgado,had been influenced by fascism,ultimately starting the ritual-based,far-right organization.
The Cohen Plan was a document forged by the Brazilian military with the aim of establishing the Estado Novo dictatorship in November 1937. A conjunction between antisemitism and anti-communism in Brazilian politics,it was fraudulently attributed to the Communist International,which allegedly planned to overthrow the government through strikes,the burning of public buildings and popular demonstrations that would end in looting,chaos,and the murder of authorities. To introduce the fraud,it was "discovered" by the Armed Forces,immediately used to label the political opposition as communists,and then to legitimize the military coup d'état.
