Abstract :

The article intends to analyze the sociological interpretations of Fernando Henrique Cardoso and Florestan Fernandes on the development of the economies of the countries of Latin America. In this sense, we seek to understand the concepts of dependent bourgeoisie, association with foreign capital, to understand how each of the authors analyzes the process of rupturing the economic past of the colonial pact and the passage to the cycles of internal development of capitalism, taking into account the historical context of the Industrial Revolution. In order to carry out this study, we used the bibliographical and conceptual analysis portrayed by FHC and Florestan Fernandes in their works, thus allowing a comparative conceptual study on the process of development, dependence and modernization of the Latin American countries. Finally, this analysis allowed us to understand that while FHC places the association of the dependent bourgeoisie in foreign capital to overcome underdevelopment, Fernandes points out that this process does not break with privileged structures of the colonial past, confirming and deepening the condition of underdevelopment. Keywords: Dependency, Underdevelopment, Foreign Capital. O artigo tem o intuito de analisar as interpretacoes sociologicas de Fernando Henrique Cardoso e Florestan Fernandes sobre o desenvolvimento das economias dos paises da America Latina. Nesse sentido, busca-se entender os conceitos de burguesia dependente, associacao ao capital estrangeiro, para compreender como cada um dos autores analisa o processo de ruptura do passado economico do pacto colonial e a passagem para os ciclos de desenvolvimento interno do capitalismo, levando-se em consideracao o contexto historico da Revolucao Industrial. Para realizar este estudo utilizou-se a analise bibliografica e conceitual retratada por FHC e Florestan Fernandes em suas obras, permitindo assim tecer um estudo conceitual comparativo sobre o processo de desenvolvimento, dependencia e modernizacao dos paises latino-americanos. Por fim, a presente analise permitiu entender que enquanto FHC coloca a associacao da burguesia dependente ao capital estrangeiro para superacao do subdesenvolvimento, Fernandes aponta que esse processo nao rompe com estruturas privilegiadas do passado colonial, confirmando e aprofundando a condicao de subdesenvolvimento. Palavras-chave: Dependencia, Subdesenvolvimento, Capital Estrangeiro.
