Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, 2018, vol. 38, issue 1, 184-200

Abstract: There is a belief amongst part of Brazilian economists alluding to the possibilities of economic analysis which excludes ideological influences. The neoclassical orthodoxy establishes its scientific pretentions based on the premise of its own neutrality, influencing the national economic debate: the not recognizing of its ideological character, as it drains significant focal concepts such as inflation, inhibits the discussion from which it belongs. This essay queries such content shift, which synthesis prompts through the inflationary thematic. Featuring this conceptual “void” as moment of loss from its analytical efficacy, though, because of it, resizes its part as ideological mean. JEL Classification: B410; B590; Z00.
