本書對比較政治與政治經濟學的重要概念與主要理論進行鳥瞰，並且介紹該學門的重要議題與辯論。除了提醒讀者注意英美主流研究的意識型態偏頗之處，並從社會、文化、經濟、政治四個面向，以主流觀點與非主流之替代性觀點並陳的方式，使讀者不致故步自封於英美主流研究的典範而毫無察覺。當前比較政治學政治經濟學中的許多主流觀念仍有許多需要斟酌之處，因此相關研究者必須跳脫主流研究的意識型態框架，放開心胸進行批判性的反省，並

This case study of the structure of power and ruling-class domination in the heart of the sertão of Northeast Brazil is based upon six field trips over a period of fifteen years. Analysis of the political economy of Juazeiro, Bahia, and Petrolina, Pernambuco - two contiguous towns along the São Francisco River - focuses on the history of patriarchal families, ruling class, and patrimonial governments. Family dominance is related to the rise of the Coelhos in Petrolina and the decline of the Vianas in Juazeiro. Agressive tactics and links to Recife allowed the Coelhos to expand and assume control over most commerce in Petrolina and neighbouring municipalities to Juazeiro.

He then presents an analysis by São Paulo intellectuals on racial discrimination, social inequality, and class differentiation under early capitalism and industrialization. The book concludes with a discussion on how Brazilian intellectuals challenged
