Castilhism was the political current established by Júlio de Castilhos with the creation of the Rio Grande do Sul Constitution of 1891. It was the guiding principle of the Estado Novo, Getúlio Vargas' dictatorial period. It is the ideology behind the Brazilian labour movement, which elevated Castilhism to national importance.
