description This essay reflects upon the earlier texts written by the intellectual and communist militant Astrojildo Pereira, especially the ones about the polemics that involves Oliveira Vianna. It shows how the leader of the PCB faced the dilemma of the “nationalization of the Marxism” in Brazil concerning the interpretation of the country that affirms its historical particularity and denies the validity of the universalist theories in the understanding of our historical and political context. Thus his subsequent texts attempt at understanding the country under a Marxist viewpoint, analyzing Brazilian culture and seeking traces of a progressive culture in the country. This progressive culture, formed by the radicals in their context or “céticos voltarianos”, would facilitate the establishment of Marxism in Brazil.

Este ensaio realiza uma reflexão sobre os textos do intelectual e militante comunista Astrojildo Pereira, especialmente em sua polêmica com Oliveira Vianna. Procura-se mostrar como o antigo dirigente do PCB colocou diante de si o dilema da “nacionalização do marxismo” no Brasil em contato com uma interpretação do país que afirmaria sua particularidade histórica e negaria a validade de teorias universalistas na compreensão de nosso contexto histórico e político. Dessa maneira, os textos posteriores do militante comunista se esforçariam por compreender o país a partir de um ponto de vista marxista, analisando a cultura brasileira e buscando identificar uma cultura progressista no país. Essa cultura progressista, formada pelos radicais em seu contexto ou “céticos voltarianos”, seria a base para o enraizamento do marxismo no Brasil. Universidade Estadual de Campinas.
