| Abstract | |
This dissertation deals with the economic thought of Roberto Simonsen. From a perspective based on the historical reconstitution of economic thought, we seek to understand the formation of Simonsens economic thought, taking into account the institutions to which he belonged and his role as a businessman and as a politician. We emphasize Simonsens participation in the international diffusion of economic ideas, adapting foreign ideas to the Brazilian context. We show that Simonsens interpretation of Brazilian economic history, present in his classic book, is very important for the construction of his economic thought, structured around two axes: protectionism and economic planning.
