The author starts identifying the political and<br />theoretical influences he had, as a young man, from his family, and from intellectuals as<br />Marx, Weber and Keynes, abroad, and from Furtado and Rangel, in Brazil. He divides his<br />contributions in historical and theoretical. The historical analyses are, on their turn, subdivided<br />on the ones dealing specifically with Brazil and Latin America and the other referring to<br />changes in contemporary world economy and society. The theoretical contributions are the<br />ones rather of logical-deductive, or methodological, than of historical-inductive, character.<br />In the conclusion the author makes a general evaluation of the work done, that is also a<br />research program for the future.</p><p><strong>JEL Classification:</strong> B2.</p> ER -
