ABSTRACT
In almost all of his production, the noted economist and former minister of Culture, Celso Furtado, praised the creativity of the nation as a strategic asset for the emergence of a new sustainable, inclusive and endogenous economic development model. The analytical trajectory of this work turned to literature review to highlight the theoretical contributions of Celso Furtado about the potential arising of a new economy that is intensive in creativity. In turn, the clipping of Celso Furtado’s thought is a powerful and current tool to (re)consider the overcoming strategies of the country’s underdevelopment.
