Abstract
The search for the strategy of the Brazilian Revolution mobilized intense debates inside the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB) at the turn of the 1950s to the 1960s. At this period, the communists had a great influence with the working class and the intellectuals, which accredited them as an important political force in society. Brazil was passing through a moment of great economic and social transformations, making even more complex the task of analyzing correctly the movement of reality and pointing out the paths to the action of the proletariat. Nevertheless, most of the protagonists of this discussion agreed that the central contradictions of Brazilian social formation were related to the lag imposed by imperialism and by large property. Therefore, despite the very difficult internal struggle between the PCB leaders, it is possible to affirm that the main divergences were included in the same National-Democratic Strategy. That is, the issues that stimulated the controversies among the communists did not necessarily concern the character of the Brazilian Revolution in that particular conjuncture, but rather to its subjects and the possibility of a peaceful way.
