Abstract

The research object of this dissertation is to analyze, from the relational sociology of Pierre Bourdieu, how the discourse adopted by business schools (FGV-EAESP and Chicago Booth) contribute to the consolidation of dominant beliefs in the field of Administration, and for what reason these discourses are able to sensitize students, mostly from a fraction of the elite of the State of São Paulo in Brazil. In this way, I seek to bring elements of empirical research developed both in Brazil and in the USA, in order to draw comparisons between the discourses and the beliefs disseminated by these schools. Thus, the study presented here shows that, apart from the fact that such institutions are formed by agents from an educational and economic elite, located mainly in the state of São Paulo, one must consider to what extent the professional position and the networks of which these agents participate are able to create and disseminate hegemonic beliefs both in the markets and in the formulation of ideas and scientific theories in the field of Administration and Economics.
