Sobre lutas, Braudel, Marx e as crises capitalistas

Abstract

This article examines the theme of capitalist crises taking as parameters the studies and findings carried out by Karl Marx and Fernand Braudel. It is to understand the current crisis of capitalism, which manifested itself in 2007 and continued in subsequent years, and whose last phase has been marked by the austerity plans of the bourgeoisie and imperialism and the intervention of the European proletariat combined with the Arab revolution. I mean, here we intend to recover aspects of political and intellectual intervention of Marx and Braudel to assist in understanding the current crisis and of its consequences.
