Resumo

O artigo versa sobre a doutrina econômica e social de Thomas Carlyle, célebre autor escocês do século dezenove. Inicialmente, são revistos alguns aspectos essenciais da sociedade e do capitalismo industrial na Inglaterra durante o período. Resgatam-se, a seguir, as influências religiosas e filosóficas do pensamento social de Carlyle. Após, discutem-se sua concepção da história e a versão da Revolução Francesa por ele formulada para, na seqüência, introduzir sua crítica da economia vitoriana. Ao final, avaliam-se os avanços e contradições de sua teoria social.
