International Development in the Brazilian Context in the 1950s and 1960s: A postcolonial reading of Guerreiro Ramos

Abstract: This article analyzes, from a postcolonial perspective, ideas observed in the work of the Brazilian sociologist Alberto Guerreiro Ramos. To do this, first, we examine the basis of postcolonial theory, especially the general context where it emerged. Then, we examine the historical context of Brazil in the 1950s and 1960s, by discussing works by the author that portrayed the transformations in the country within this period.

“…Justifica-se a iniciativa de tal pesquisa na medida em que se constata que Guerreiro Ramos ainda é muito pouco conhecido entre estudantes e professores de cursos de Ciências Sociais e de Administração da UFSC e em Santa Catarina, embora tenha sido reconhecido internacionalmente. Uma mostra de seu reconhecimento ocorre em 2014, quando a Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV) e a University of Southern Califórnia (USC) decidiram criar a Cátedra Internacional Guerreiro Ramos (Cavalcanti;Duzert;Marques, 2014).…”
