Sodré and the Dialectics of Brazil’s Social Formation

Posted on 2019-04-29 - 12:00

In the early 1960s, Nelson Werneck Sodré developed a complex and sophisticated theory of Brazilian reality and its historical dynamics. In the light of the criticism and distortion of his views of the intervening years, a clarifying summary of his most important work is in order. Such a summary suggests that the new absolute truths of Brazilian historiography and political sciences have elements that can be questioned and that in interpretations of Brazil one can never forget that science is also expressed as ideology and political practice.

No início dos anos 1960, Nelson Werneck Sodré desenvolveu uma teoria complexa e sofisticada da realidade brasileira e sua dinâmica histórica. À luz das críticas e distorções de suas visões nos anos intermediários, um resumo esclarecedor de sua obra mais importante está em ordem. Tal resumo sugere que as novas verdades absolutas da historiografia brasileira e das ciências políticas têm elementos que podem ser questionados e que nas interpretações do Brasil nunca se pode esquecer que a ciência também se expressa como ideologia e prática política.
