Abstract This project aims to study the Brazilian political situation in the context of the twilight and fall of the Empire, marked by growing tensions. Having, as its main reference, the different expectations and conflicts surrounding the transition to free labor, its aims to understand the impact of this process in the erosion of the monarchy and in the quarrels that marked the republican regime in its first years. Hence, the research will have as its temporal limits the years of 1884, in which the cabinet headed by Souza Dantas reached power and it is possible to identify the rising of the abolitionist influence and a deep schism in the political elite engendered by the distinct expectations regarding the transition to free labor, and 1891, when the first republican Constitution was adopted, establishing the political and institutional basis of the new regime. Therefore, the current project is intended as a contribution to 19th-century Brazil historiography concerning two extremely relevant, and connected, moments in the country's history: the transition to free labor and the republican transition.
