Abstract

This monograph seeks to explain the process of intensification of poverty in Brazil after the 2015 crisis, in order to characterize the main influencers of this process. Therefore, a brief current scenario of the growth of poverty in Brazil is introduced, followed by the development of a historical context and the presentation of social policies responsible for the treatment of this problem in the country. From this, one of the important analyses studied in this monograph is based on the understanding of the drivers of the economic crisis of 2015 in Brazil. This opens space for understanding the influence of the financial crisis of 2008 and the policies adopted in Brazil after the period of commodity boom in the 2000s, on the fiscal deterioration in the country. Thus, this monograph explains the main impacts of the 2015 crisis in Brazil, emphasizing the variables responsible for the intensification of poverty in the country during and after the period. In addition, it is worth pointing out that the conclusion highlights a perspective on the possibility of changing this scenario, and it is important to understand that the key points for poverty reduction in Brazil are presented throughout this monograph
