Funcionalidade do Estado e das políticas sociais no capitalismo dos monopólios

Abstract

The present study results of study on the development of social policies without being monopolistic. To unveil the nexus provided an implementation of social policies, we base our research perspective initially historical-critical, with the goal of highlighting the nature and social function status as manager in the class conflicts, arising from the development of material production society. This bibliographical reference research adopts the Marxian conception about the fundamentals of the State as an institution that develops continuously maintenance mechanisms of accumulation and expansion of capital. Performs a counterpoint to liberal perspective which propagates the State arises as a defender of the interests of the whole society. Then we pass on a State performance at the stage of industrialization based on formulations of Marx on “General Law of Capitalist Accumulation”, where the effects of capitalist exploration show a pauperization worker, never seen before in previous production, being called “Social Issue”. Identifying himself as well, capital growth effects on the lives of workers, as well as how dimensions of this phenomenon. Faced with the contradictions of capitalist production caused the working class, this paper discusses the ramifications of the class struggles and the deal given to refractions of the “Social Issue” by State on the competitive stage of capitalism. In monopoly phase, we identified how the development of the productive forces provided the resizing of the actions of the State enabling the institutionalization of social policies to ensure the maintenance of capitalist accumulations, attenuating the conflicts arising from the capital-labour relationship. Still, the development was shown “welfare State”, especially in the trade-off a introductions and generalizations of social policies as being a functional capital reproduction.
