Abstract

The text aims to highlight the determinants of the structural
"reforms" of Brazilian social security in the process of financialisation
of capital. It results from bibliographical and documentary research, with
historical-critical theoretical reference. It addresses the current context of
the structural crisis of the capitalist economy; the measures implemented
by capital and the State to combat the effects of the crisis, evidencing the
process of financialisation of capital; analyzes the use of the public fund at
this juncture and the consequences it entails for Brazilian social security.
From this perspective, he perceives the crucial role of the State in the process
of transnational negotiations between the large monopoly groups. Whether
through its performance as a large buyer of diverse inputs, as well as large
debtor, hence the importance of public debts in this process. In addition,
it emphasizes the retrocession of social rights, through the reduction of
social security financing, to generate primary surplus, strengthening the
process of financialisation of the world economy.
