GUIMARAES, Carlos A.; CARNUT, Leonardo e MENDES, Áquilas. The racial issue and the limits of Brazilian economic and social development: a critical perspective. Am. Lat. Hist. Econ [online]. 2022, vol.29, n.1, e0006. Epub 07-Mar-2022. ISSN 2007-3496. https://doi.org/10.18232/20073496.1185.
The objective is to analyze the Brazilian racial issue as a historical obstacle to the country’s economic and social development, from a critical Marxist perspective. It is considered that social relations are shaped not only by the class regime but also by the myth of racial democracy as a tool of veiled segregation –which, as such, also proves to be dense barrier to the strengthening of a solid proletariat–. The methodology used consisted of confronting the arguments of the classic theses of Florestan Fernandes and Octávio Ianni with more recent scientific articles, raising convergences and divergences, in order to demonstrate, from the data collected, that awareness about the racial issue is a sine qua non condition for legitimation. and the strengthening of the proletariat.
