A CEPAL ainda é uma escola do pensamento?DOI: 10.1590/S1415-98482011000100004 Keywords: eclac, development policies, development theories. Abstract: the article discusses if eclac still constitutes a school of thought, status conferred on it by several specialized books in the discussion of theories of development. the thesis advanced in the article is that this condition of the school of thought was a very specific situation of the agency in its early years, in the context of a debate on if development policies should be implemented so that developing countries could aspire to development. this paper attempts to differentiate between this condition of early years and the current, showing that now the agency has a role compatible with their nature as multilateral body belonging to the institutional framework of the united nations.
