Abstract

A prestigious intellectual and disciplined political activist, Caio Prado Júnior, however, was much criticized throughout his life, being accused by some of being “bourgeois” (due to his class origin) and by others of being “reformist”. Even by his own family, he was sometimes misunderstood and labeled “radical” and “rebel”. More orthodox Marxists went so far as to say that he was not a “communist”, but, in practice, an eclectic.
