Resumo
O pensamento e a ação do economista polonês Oskar Lange (1904-1965) são apresentados a partir de uma pesquisa inédita que contextualiza historicamente a origem de sua metodologia de interação com a teoria econômica mainstream. Ao levar em consideração todo o caminho de construção teórica de Oskar Lange em associação com sua práxis política, especialmente em sua etapa mais crítica como articulador da República Popular da Polônia no final da Segunda Guerra Mundial, concluise que Lange iniciou a construção de um sistema próprio com pretensões totalizantes para a ciência econômica, cuja característica principal é a absorção de elementos externos para capturar suas forças. Chamamos essa abordagem de “Antropofagia Langeana”, uma estratégia de luta contra a ideologia capitalista na ciência econômica que expressa o caráter contraditório, exploratório e inacabado de sua obra Moderna Economia Política. É sob esse prisma que se deve investigar sua liberdade criativa dentro do Marxismo, uma vez que Lange não se concebia como livre pensador rebelde, mas seguidor de Rosa Luxemburgo e Karl Marx, a quem tinha em consideração como a maior autoridade de todos os tempos no campo da Economia Política.
