Redefinição nos rumos do “Desenvolvimento Econômico” e centralidade do capital fictício : uma interpretação Marxista acerca do Plano Real (1994- 1999)

Abstract

This work aims to present a marxist interpretation of the experience of the Plano Real (1994- 1999) from the use of the “fictitious capital” category and its historical construction through the process known as “financialization”. Through a qualitative method, and a bibliographic review with the majority use of secondary sources, we will seek to understand how the study of fictitious capital can contribute to the construction of a marxist approach in this debate. Our hypothesis is that from this view we are possible to look at the Plano Real as a part of a broader plan of capitalism, within the historical expansion of the fictitious accumulation logic, which, therefore, ends up conditioning the realization of the Plano Real in Brazil, so that from the centrality of fictitious capital in its functioning, the contradictions presented in the capitalist dynamics of the country are potentiated, whether in the perspective of its classes, or in its international insertion, dependent and peripheral, leaving a destructive trail in the national economic historicity, which was marked by crises arising from the flight of fictitious capital in moments of reversal of perspectives, given the high external vulnerability potentiated by the economic policies executed by the Plan.
