摘要：This article analyzes the social dynamics, forms of collective action and outcomes of the revolt of the "rasga-listas" against the establishment of the military lottery in the final decades of the Brazilian Empire. The reform of recruitment policy provided by the 1874 law of the lottery was blocked by the action of masses of men and women in various provinces of the Empire who assaulted recruitment boards and destroyed enlistments being processed. Using as reference the classical analyses by Tilly, Hobsbawm, Rudé and Thompson of pre-industrial crowds, the article analyzes the meaning of the crowd behavior of the "rasga-listas". It is argued that the principal reasons for the revolt originated from the loss of local control over recruitment routines. The insurgents anticipated the results of the combination of singular characteristics of the lotteries as mechanisms for the distribution of burdens and of the traditional ambivalences of the Imperial government. It is further argued that the lottery offended deeply rooted conceptions of the equitable distribution of burdens in a highly hierarchical society. The article also analyzes the regional variations, patterns of collective action, social composition and political vocabulary of the rebellion.
