Resumo: How did the social sciences understand the social question in Chile and Brazil during the twentieth century? In the historiographical field of these Latin American countries, conflicting interpretations were initially produced to understand the development of the social question. If in Chile it was interpreted as a workers’ conquest produced by the force of political-syndical movement; in Brazil, on the contrary, the same phenomenon was understand as a “gift” from the populist State resulting from the workers’ passivity. Later, these readings have been questioned by views that have shown a more complex relationship between the labor movement and the State, which redefined both. Thus, revisiting critically these interpretations is an exercise that allows an approach to how social sciences participate in the struggles that they describe.

XX? En el campo historiográfico, en estos países latinoamericanos,inicialmente fueron producidas interpretaciones opuestas para comprender el desarrollode la cuestión social. Si en Chile fue interpretada como una conquista obrera resultante de la fuerza del movimiento político sindical; en Brasil, por el contrario, el mismo fenómeno fue entendido como un “dádiva” estatal-populista, producto de la pasividad obrera. Posteriormente, estas lecturas clásicas fueron cuestionadas por perspectivas que mostraron una relación entre movimiento obrero y Estado mucho más compleja que terminó por redefinir ambos términos. Así, revisitar críticamente estas interpretaciones es un ejercicio que permite una aproximación al cómo las ciencias sociales forman parte de las luchas que ellas buscan describir.Como as ciências sociais compreenderam a questão social no Chile e no Brasil durante o século XX?
