ABSTRACT - The impact of the global financial crisis (2008-2012) affects unlike Brazil and the EU countries, given the specific social, economic and political aspects. At the end of the ’90s there have been projected in the future of the occidental society the adoption of the Brazilian model as a consequence of the neoliberal model, deregulation, precarization at work and rupture between the economic and social growth. Different responses to the crisis and public policies for social inclusion and profound economic reforms carried out in Brazil since the ‘90s, with more rigid systems of control of the financial system, show that Brazil is now less exposed to the crisis. The collapse would certainly result from the inertia of government, economic policies of low interest rates, fiscal tightening and the adoption of deregulation or not law enforcement which did not occur in Brazil.
