This work has as main objective the criticism of the Bahian philosopher Carlos Nelson Coutinho s positions about the development of capitalism in Brazil. For Coutinho, the Brazilian development way resembles the German and Italian cases. In this way, our work focuses on the use made by the author of concepts like Prussian way and passive revolution . During our researches, we realize that Coutinho s thinking suffers radical changes in his way of analysing the reality. It is the leaving of the Hungarian philosopher Georg Lukács references, in behalf of the communist leader Antonio Gramsci s concepts and the political teachings of Italian Eurocommunists. Therefore, we also dedicate ourselves to the understanding of the meaning of these changes and of the way in which they affect Carlos Nelson Coutinho s diagnosis of Brazilian past and present, as well as his resolutive proposal. Our work is based on the immanent analysis, in other words, the critical accompaniment of Coutinho s thinking is accomplished through the reading and the interpretation of the texts of the author himself, thus respecting the proper sense of them. Our criticism is also based on the writings of historian Caio Prado Jr. and philosopher José Chasin, who caught in their works aspects of Brazilian reality that Coutinho could not properly understand
