| Sumario: | In this article I try to answer some questions about the relationship between science and politics in Florestan Fernandes: to what extent the social scientist -in the lineage of classical Marxism -Florestan Fernandes managed to articulate, in a consistent and harmonious way, thought and action, theory and the politics? Did Florestan manage to escape the traditional criticisms directed at the academic intellectual who favors science over social and political engagement or, in other words, who favors theoretical work over the struggle for the radical transformation of class society? More precisely, how would he make rigorous sociological research compatible with the defense of the socialist revolution? |
