Abstract
Subscribing to the concept that historical research helps us understand oday's world, I have examined five rebellions of colonial razil to demonstrate that the contemporary Brazilian army's political ctivity finds precedence in colonial reality. Not claiming to be exhaustive or conclusive, the study purports merely to suggest that the uch-heralded civilian tradition of Brazilian society presents a distorted and inadequate picture of Brazilian history.
