This analysis provides theoretical basis on how the categories of hegemony, proposed by Ernesto Laclau, and event, developed by Alain Badiou, extrapolate their theoretical limits when considered in terms of political practice. Based on the real-life example of the election to the presidency of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, an icon and leading figure in the Workers� Party (PT), I emphasize how the exercise of power blends with a certain concept of ethics to construct political discourse, and which strategies are employed in these hegemonic fields in the search for legitimacy. The primary source of analysis in this work is the documentary film by João Moreira Salles (Entre-Atos), along with some other supplementary sources.
