Resumo: Abstract This paper aims to investigate the method of the latin american structuralism from the works of Octávio Rodriguez and Celso Furtado in a historical and philosophical perspective of science based on the studies of Thomas Kuhn. We analyze the ECLAC's contribution, mainly from Furtado’s theoretic point of views, showing that he seeks a dialogue between its historical-structural analysis and the mainstream hypothetical-deductive analyzes. He points out the variation of parameters as an appropriate tool for the Historical and structural analysis of underdevelopment issues. Furtado suggested a methodological perspective that allows the recognition of the economic science limits. He starts from the traditional point of view of the hypothetical-deductive method and, without denying it a priori, proposes to include history and institutions in economic analysis, understanding them as necessary conditions for the full understanding of economic variables. Keywords: Economic Methods; Estruturalism; ECLAC; Celso Furtado. JEL Codes: B15, B25, B41, B52.

Para isso são analisadas as contribuições da CEPAL, mormente de Furtado, que dialogam com a análise histórico-estrutural e as análises de cunho hipotético-dedutivo predominantes do mainstream. Furtado aponta o estudo da variação de parâmetros econômicos como o mais apropriado para a análise histórica e estrutural dos problemas do subdesenvolvimento. Assim, ele sugere uma perspectiva metodológica que permite o reconhecimento dos limites da ciência econômica. Ele parte da tradição do método hipotético-dedutivo e, sem negá-lo a priori, propõe incluir a história e as instituições na análise econômica, entendendo-as como condições necessárias para a plena compreensão das variáveis econômicas.
