Abstract

Political Science in Brazil experiences tensions between institutionalist and societal approaches.
For some the predominant role of institutionalism is positive. Others believe that this hegemony
creates inequality in the area and undermines the reflection on democracy. Our objective is
to describe the recent production (2005-2014) in important journals in the field of Political
Science comparing institutionalism and societalism and giving special attention to the articles
on democracy and inequality. We observe, quantitatively and qualitatively, the production of
doctors in political science in seven major scientific journals. The perception of the journal
editors about this process completes the corpus. We conclude that the institutionalist hegemony
is confirmed in the production of doctors, but not without generating dissatisfaction.
