SUMMARY:

The general subject of this research is about the strategic and programmatic content of the brazilian Revolution theory in Florestan Fernandes’ thought, studying the dialectic he developed between the “revolution by the order” and “revolution against the order” in his writings about the 1970s and 1980s political happenings and the class struggle in Brazil, synthesized at the “democratic Revolution” proposal. The specific objectives we seek are the relation between the development of a bourgeois autocracy form os state and its roots on the dependency of national capitalism, with the sui generis class society formation in Brazil at the dependent bourgeoisie revolution; carry out a synthesis of the historical development that resulted in the distension of the 1964 dictatorship that begun at 1974, and the controled transition; analyze Florestans thoughts on PTs politics, as well as his proposal of “socialist reforms” within the 1988 Constitution, and the contrast between the democratic revolution and Trotski’s permanent revolution theory political program. Our hypothesis is that Florestan, while defended the working class as the protagonist of the democratic tasks of the Revolution combined with its socialist objectives, he also admitted the possibility of momentary alliances with the bourgeoisie to be necessary to modernize the State, expanding its democratic space for the working and poor classes influency. in order to give them better conditions to conquer power. We establish a critique of his theory of the Brazilian revolution, comparing it with the categories of analysis on the State and workers' hegemony and the strategic and programmatic content from Vladmir Lenin, Leon Trotski’s and Antonio Gramsci's Marxism. Recovering the theory of the revolution against a bourgeois autocracy in Brazil that Florestan developed on his works, seeks to contribute with an more precise analysis of the current process of authoritarian dismantle of the 1988 regime, and the answers the dominated classes should give to it, that they will inevitably be faced on the battlefield of the class struggle.
