Abstract

On the threshold of the new century, with the intensification of financial dominance over the capitalist system and an expansion of the search for new spaces of accumulation, we witness the resumption of the international debate on the pattern of financing infrastructure. This article explores a set of empirical data on new mechanisms for private financing of infrastructure in Brazil, with an emphasis on the post-2011 period, due to the more expressive dissemination of new products, such as the infrastructure debentures. The first objective is to explore the process of building the hegemonic narrative of neoliberalization of the State for the provision of infrastructure, rooted in a binary vision between the public and the private. The second objective is related to the results of our empirical research, from which we discussed the really existing neoliberalism, which points to an emerging financing pattern marked by hybridism between the public and private spheres.
