Description
Summary:Brazilian reality has a permanent dialectic as a mark in its sociohistorical formation, between change and permanence, renewal and rupture, that shows itself particularly well in the country's current conjuncture. Such a mark represents the dynamics of capitalist development, running deeper in developing countries. Thus, we seek to establish a dialogue with some important authors who interpreted Brazil boldly from the perspective of contradictions inherent to the complex and historical movement between universal and singular. Therefore, we prioritize the Caio Prado Jr.'s work Formation of Contemporary Brazil (1942), giving special attention to his analysis on what constitutes the "organic" and the "inorganic" in the constitution of economy and social classes in the country.Keywords: organic and inorganic concepts; social classes; sociohistorical and economical formation of Brazil.A realidade brasileira possui como marca na sua formacao socio-historica a constante dialetica entre mudanca e permanencia, renovacao e ruptura, que se revela particularmente na atual conjuntura do pais. Tal marca compoe a dinamica do desenvolvimento capitalista, aprofundando-se nos paises dependentes. Assim, buscamos dialogar com alguns importantes autores que ousaram interpretar o Brasil sob a otica das contradicoes do complexo e historico movimento entre o universal e o singular. Para tanto, priorizamos a obra Formacao do Brasil contemporaneo (1942), de Caio Prado Jr., com especial atencao a analise feita pelo autor sobre o que se configurou como "organico" e "inorganico" na constituicao da economia e das classes sociais no pais.Palavras-chave: organico e inorganico; classes sociais; formacao socio-historica e economica brasileira.
