The present dissertation seeks to demonstrate Florestan Fernandes' company and its analyzes regarding the development of dependent capitalism for the critical examination of Brazilian democracy, as well as its particularities. For that, it analyzes eight works, namely "Social changes in Brazil", "Society of classes and underdevelopment", "Dependent Capitalism and Social Classes in Latin America", "The Bourgeois Revolution in Brazil", "Notes on the Theory of Authoritarianism" ”,“ Brazil on hold: small writings ”,“ What is revolution ”and“ Power and counterpower in Latin America ”. We believe that we can access in these works the fundamentals of Florestan Fernandes' interpretation regarding a heterogeneous historical situation of Brazilian democracy, as a result of the different situation that we find in the historical process of constitution of a dependent capitalist country. The objective is to present Fernandes' path in the studied works, relating the author, context, history and work with the intention of elucidating as contributions that the entrepreneurial intellectual can give in the understanding of the difficulties of the consolidation of national democracy, as well as of the counterrevolutionary autocratic ones that compress the process mentioning within the scope of the particularist interest of the dominant classes.
