| Abstract | |
ABSTRACT This article reconstructs Celso Furtado’s trajectory until the beginning of the 1960s and analyzes writings in which he defines the conception of economic science that guides his activities in an underdeveloped country. Furtado maintains that the economy is not neutral and universal, emphasizing the need to produce a historically situated knowledge and to outline collectively the goals of economic intervention. It is argued that the economic science professed by Furtado is iconoclastic, breaking with the neoclassical paradigms, and nonconformist, aiming at the transformation of social reality. (AU) | |
