Resumo
In this doctoral dissertation, we research the intellectual stance of Florestan Fernandes and
we also seek to flesh out the reasoning that generated such a position and why he assumes
this stance in the national and intellectual scenario. His intellectual perspective approximated
the political standings influenced by Leninism and Gramscianism, according to his choice of
militancy through the institutionalized political path, in his performance in the political party
and his involvement with parliamentary activity. The party's choice as an instrument of
insertion in national public life was associated with his conception of Marxism and the defense
of what is called proletarian socialism. In methodological terms, we analyzed his bibliography
which has connections with Marxism, the Workers' Party (PT), Socialism, class struggles and
bourgeois democracy, as well as published interviews, printed and on videos, in order to
verify his thoughts on these issues. In this regard, as it can be verified in this work, we rely
on the theoretical framework of Marxism to analyze his intellectual production according to his
social class and sense of belonging, in this case the intellectuality, and from the notion of
social sphere and the intellectual sphere. We discuss his standing and stance in the face of
Brazilian reality and what he considered as Marxism and the forms of working class action in
favor of the constitution of proletarian socialism. For us, there is an approximation of the
ideological contributions of Leninism-Gramscianism in his conception of Marxism, which we
conceive as the deformation of Marxism in terms of the false systematized consciousness of
reality, by defending, in his stances, institutionalized organizations such as the party and the
trade union, understood by him as instruments of struggle necessary for the working class to
overcome capitalism and extinguish bourgeois domination. His intellectual perspective is
determined by his Leninist and Gramscian political formation which allows him to act in
bureaucratic organizations expressing, thus, a political positioning derived from his
connections with the university and the political party. Therefore, the need of getting himself
involved with the burning issues of national debate and the class struggles made him defend
institutionalized instruments of struggle, generating an ambiguous outlook assumed
throughout the development of his trajectory of action in the scope of the university and of
the political party, which confirms his distancing from authentic Marxism and its revolutionary
character.
