Abstract

In the last four years, Brazil has experienced a fiscal crisis that has already led to several policies on the part of the State. However, it can be seen that these measures followed, in most cases, the path of austerity. This article aims to problematize this adopted model and to consider the insertion of heterodox instruments of overcoming in the responses to this conjuncture. In this sense, analyse the disassociation of union revenues and the new tax regime (ceiling of expenditures) through a literature critical to these actions. In addition to these two themes, the structure of the work encompasses debates about the limitations of orthodoxy and neoliberalism for the Brazilian crisis and does an analysis of the austerity model applied in country. Using a qualitative and exploratory methodology, it is sought to formulate an alternative to this reality that distributes better among social classes the burden of these adjustments.
