Resumen
The article discusses whether national situations, such as the condition of dependence, can have generalized effects upon the formation of concepts in political science. Assuming that these effects do exist, the author seeks to investigated them through the sociology of knowledge and the analysis of the academic institutionalization of the social sciences. These effects cannot be perceived at the more abstract, analytic level give a substantial theoretical convergence. This is exemplified by a discussion of the systemic approach and propositions derived from Marxism. However, these effects become visible when we deal with the ways in which collective action and the mechanisms of political representation are perceived. At this level, Political Science is sensitive to the "ontology" of the social processes that occurs in the societies where it is produced. This general framework allows the author to organize the development of political science in Brazil into three phases: a first one, concerned with the question of the consolidation of a national state; a second, from 1945 to 1964, centered on the issues of the expansion of citizenship and the capacity of the central government to intervene in the economy; and the post-64 phase, characterized by a critical reevaluation of these issues in the context of a much more advanced academic institutionalization.
