Resumo: The paper presents the use of an interpretative model to study the presence of economists in government, with special attention to the Brazilian case. Based on theories and concepts from sociology and policy analysis, a model of supply and demand for economists in government is devised. To this end, we use Andrew Abbott's sociology of the system of professions and the concept of state capacities. This interpretive model is applied to the analysis of three moments in the history of economists in the Brazilian government: the emergence of the demand for economic knowledge in the Brazilian bureaucratic state in the 1930s and 1940s, the building of a more sophisticated system and community of economists around the 1960s, and the debates about inequality and inflation in the 1970s and 1980s.

Baseando-se em teorias e conceitos da sociologia e do chamado “campo de públicas”, elabora-se um modelo de oferta e demanda de economistas no governo. Para isso, mobilizam-se a sociologia do sistema de profissões de Andrew Abbott e o conceito de capacidades estatais. Esse modelo interpretativo é aplicado para a análise de três momentos da história dos economistas no governo brasileiro: o surgimento da demanda pelo conhecimento econômico no Estado burocrático brasileiro a partir dos anos de 1930 e 1940; a construção de um sistema e de uma comunidade mais sofisticada de economistas ao redor dos anos de 1960; e os debates sobre desigualdade e inflação nos anos de 1970 e 1980.Departamento de Ciências Econômicas da UFMG2023-12-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/7734Nova Economia; Vol. 33 No. 3 (2023): Revista Nova Economia; 0749-0775Nova Economia; v. 33 n. 3 (2023): Revista Nova Economia; 0749-07751980-53810103-6351reponame:Nova Economia (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/7734/4071Copyright (c) 2023 Luis Gustavo Nascimento de Paula, Marco Antonio Ribas Cavalierihttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPaula, Luis Gustavo Nascimento deCavalieri, Marco Antonio Ribas2023-12-27T01:46:02Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/7734Revistahttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomiaPUBhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/oai||ne@face.ufmg.br1980-53810103-6351opendoar:2023-12-27T01:46:02Nova Economia (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
