Privatização: a grande inversão do século - uma discussão dos determinantes do processo de privatização brasileiro.

Abstract

The privatization process initiated by the Brazilian State, in the has elicited a series of discussions on the determinants of this process. As a result of a larger program of privatization of many of the functions carried out by the State, the privatization program of the state productive sector is started as a solution to the fiscal crisis. The present study seeks to rescue some approaches that discuss the elements that determined the adoption, by the Brazilian State, of a program to privatize its productive enterprises. The analysis of this reality is subsidized by some elements of Marxist political economy, particularly those related to the movement of capital expansion, its contradictions and crisis, leading to concentration and centralization of capital. As a result of the investigation of the elements pointed out as determinants of this privatization process, it is pointed out that the approaches are to the model crisis, state crisis or crisis of development pattern, not questioning the possibility of capital's own crisis, and the search for new possibilities of valorization.
