description The article aims to analyze the transformations promoted by Raúl Prebisch and ECLAC in the institutionalization of Latin American social sciences. The questions that guide the research are: What were the main discussions that crossed the field of studies of Latin American social sciences during the 1940s  and 1950s? What was the place of Latin America in the institutionalization of social sciences? In the first place, the historical process of institutionalization of ECLAC and of the different spaces of academic discussion in the formation ofRaúl Prebisch, an Argentine economist, is reconstructed. Then, the theoretical and political novelties that Latin American structuralism brought about in the framework of ECLAC during the 1950s are characterized. Also, the criticisms to ECLAC developmentalism by dependency theories during the 1960s are investigated. Finally, some considerations are made about the role of Raúl Prebisch in ECLAC. The methodological approach used is the historical sociology of Latin America. It is a discipline that hybridizes the theories of social change, typical of sociology, and documental research as is customary in historical studies. It has the potential to analyze socio-historical processes from the perspective of long, medium and short duration, enabling a procedural and long-term understanding.

Las preguntas que guían la investigación son: ¿Cuáles fueron las principales discusiones que atravesaron el campo de estudios de las ciencias sociales latinoamericanas durante las décadas de 1940 y 1950?, ¿Cuál fue el lugar de América Latina en la institucionalización de las ciencias sociales?En primer lugar, se reconstruye el proceso histórico de institucionalización de la CEPAL y de los diferentes espacios de discusión académica en la formación de Raúl Prebisch, economista argentino. Luego, se caracterizan las novedades teóricas y políticas que trajo aparejadas el estructuralismo latinoamericano en el marco de la CEPAL durante la década de 1950. También, se indaga en las críticas al desarrollismo cepalino por parte de las teorías de la dependencia durante la década de 1960. Por último, se realizan algunasconsideraciones acerca del rol de Raúl Prebisch en la CEPAL. El enfoque metodológico utilizado es la sociología histórica de América Latina. Es una disciplina que rescata de forma híbrida las teorías del cambio social, propias de la sociología, y la investigación apoyada en archivos, dela historia. Además, tiene la potencialidad de analizar los procesos sociohistóricos con el prisma de la larga, mediana y corta duración, posibilitando un entendimiento procesual y de largo aliento.  The article aims to analyze the transformations promoted by Raúl Prebisch and ECLAC in the institutionalization of Latin American social sciences.

A finalidade do artigo é analisar as transformações promovidas por Raúl Prebisch e pela CEPAL na institucionalização das ciências sociais latinoamericanas. As questões que orientam a pesquisa são: Quais foram as principais discussões que atravessaram o campo dos estudos das ciências sociais latino-americanas durante os anos 40 e 50, qual foi o lugar da América Latina na institucionalização das ciências sociais, e qual foi o lugar da América Latina na institucionalização das ciências sociais? Primeiro, o processo histórico de institucionalização da CEPAL e osdiferentes espaços de discussão acadêmica na formação de Raúl Prebisch, economista argentino, é reconstruído. Em seguida, ela caracteriza as novidades teóricas e políticas trazidas pelo estruturalismo latino-americano no âmbito da CEPAL durante os anos 50. Em seguida, explora as críticas ao desenvolvimentismo da CEPAL pelas teorias de dependência durante os anos 60. Finalmente, são apresentadas algumas considerações sobre o papel de Raúl Prebisch na CEPAL.A abordagem metodológica utilizada é a sociologia histórica da AméricaLatina, uma disciplina que se baseia nas teorias da mudança social dasociologia e da pesquisa de arquivos da história de uma forma híbrida. Estadisciplina tem o potencial de analisar processos sócio-históricos atravésdo prisma de longa, média e curta duração, permitindo um entendimentoprocessual e de longo prazo.Palavras chave: CEPAL, Sociologia Histórica da América Latina, AméricaLatina; ciências sociais latino-americanas; Raúl Prebisch Instituto de Estudios Latinoamericanos 2022-07-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip audio/mpeg audio/mpeg audio/mpeg https://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/tdna/article/view/17437 10.15359/10.15359/tdna.38-72.6 Temas de Nuestra América Revista de Estudios Latinoaméricanos; Vol. 38 Núm. 72 (2022): Temas de Nuestra América.
