Slvio Romero Sociology
The taxonmico arrangement considered by Slvio Romero obeyed a criterion that Comte and Spencer, each one its way, had established to classify sciences. This criterion was the degree of increasing complexity presented by sciences. For Slvio Romero, the Mathematics and the Logic, due to locked up absolute generality in its respective objects of study, would serve as you discipline propeduticas, that is, branches of knowing that they would only guarantee the necessary beddings to the knowledge of too much sciences. For classification effect, these if would divide in natural sciences and sciences human beings, even so were, in certain measure, complementary. In defense of sociology Slvio Romero he was the first Brazilian thinker to defend sociology, detaching to it a proper scientific statute, whose theoretical and metodolgicos criteria of boarding of the object could not be identical to the ones of natural sciences. The concern of Slvio Romero in systemize sociological inquiry in Brazil has been explained not alone for the initial influence that suffered from the ideas of Comte, as, after that, of the ones of Spencer and, later, Le Play.
Its theoretical debate with more celebrates of the representatives of the School of Recife, Tobias Barreto, is had as another factor to explain its inclination the subjects of scientific organization of sociology. For some, this quarrel with Tobias Barreto is enough as causal factor. They allege that if it was not for the intellectual importance of Tobias Barreto in the national scene, Slvio Romero if dedicated to ample and had perhaps not based a prohibited one of sociology, still in the end of century XIX. First, it sees the terms of this quarrel enters these two exponents of the School of Recife. Tobias Barreto attacks sociology (to the time, positivista), for not considering it a science, after all, the field of performance of this was not the investigativo, as of natural sciences, but the normative one.
