James G. Holland was a dissonant voice not only within behavior analysis, but also in the wider context of political thought in the United States. This article aims to present the main criticisms and suggestions made by Holland towards the application of behavior analysis and to evaluate its contemporary relevance. We conclude that such criticisms and suggestions are useful for all behavior analysts, as they contribute to promote the continued internal evaluation of the social consequences of our practices and the extensive analysis of the interlocking contingencies occurring in intervention settings and its influence over our goal-setting. ; James G. Holland foi uma voz dissonante, não apenas na análise do comportamento, mas no contexto mais amplo do pensamento político estadunidense. Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar as principais críticas e sugestões, direcionadas por Holland, Ã aplicação da análise do comportamento e avaliar sua relevância no cenário atual. Conclui-se que tais críticas e sugestões são úteis para todos os analistas do comportamento, pois contribuem para que mantenhamos uma cultura de avaliação interna sobre as consequências sociais de nossas práticas e para que analisemos de modo amplo o entrelaçamento de contingências presentes em situações de intervenção e sua influência sobre a formulação de nossos objetivos.
