“…Desta forma, muitos serviços, remunerados por procedimentos de TRS, passam por problemas na sua operacionalização, condição fundamental para novas aquisições de clínicas pelo capital internacional. Esse processo de incorporações proporciona uma concentração produtiva na oferta, delineando-se uma estrutura propícia para as empresas com maior poder econômico, tanto no ambiente produtivo, como no especulativo, sendo um movimento do capital no seu processo de valorização 51 .…”

Resumo A partir da liberalização do capital estrangeiro na Saúde, engendrou-se uma nova tendência no processo de acumulação de capital no complexo econômico industrial da saúde, sobretudo nos níveis de atenção terciários e serviços de Atendimento, Tratamento e Diagnóstico (SADT). Com o intuito de compreender essa dinâmica, o presente artigo procurou analisar o processo de aquisições de clínicas de Terapia Renal Substitutiva (TRS) pelas empresas de capital internacional no Brasil. Para tanto, foi desenvolvido um percurso metodológico em duas etapas: a primeira consistiu na análise quantitativa-descritiva, de modalidade econômica, da totalidade das empresas de capital internacional que atuam na produção de insumos e tecnologias e nos serviços de assistência em TRS; a segunda foi desenvolvida em uma análise qualitativa de entrevistas semi-estruturadas de atores-chaves provenientes dos setores privado e público e sociedade civil organizada. Portanto, o processo de avanço do capital internacional traz consigo uma alteração qualitativa da organização, assistência e financiamento da TRS. Podemos encontrar, especialmente nos casos dos serviços públicos e privados complementares, uma tendência de restrição à atenção integral e um entrave ao direito universal à saúde.

“…Based on this political logic and the economical logic of minimizing costs and maximizing short-term profits, the new relationship between finance and the manufacturing industry starts modeling the investment pattern (including those focused on innovation) of the big corporations (Chesnais;Sauviat, 2003). With the free flow of capital of societies that had been provided by the "liquidity" of the stock market and helped by refined financial routines of the novel "corporate governance" style, financial institutions gained "Surveillance Capitalism" (Zuboff, 2019) and it has to do with establishing a commoditization of personal data in order to make profits.…”

This article analyzes the recent changes in the global productivity and innovation dynamics and its impacts on the industrial and innovation public policies since the beginning of the millennium. Arguably, the main feature that singles out the current state of globalization is the strengthening of the financialization process. This has had significant impacts on transnational firms and the outreach of National States' actions. This article also discusses to what extent the Covid-19 pandemic is affecting the economy, the society, and the measures adopted by National States to face the current crisis. The role of new digital technologies in global changes, the industrial and innovation policies, especially in the health productivity and innovation system, are other discussion topics. Finally, this study highlights the structural changes in the global economy against the background of the Covid-19 pandemic and investigates the main challenges and opportunities for HEIC worldwide and in Brazil.

“…Thanks to neoregulatory policies that have promoted the marriage between science and market (Otero ), TNCs have benefited from new legal frameworks that protect their intellectual property rights. This has encouraged them to explore new businesses and to value intangible assets such as knowledge, which has become fully subject to commoditization (Serfati ; Chesnais and Sauviat ). TNCs have developed the capacity to guide national processes and intervene with a dominant role at the supranational level (such as at the WTO, the FAO, the OECD and the IMF).…”

The technological changes that have occurred since the mid-1960s in Argentine agriculture -first the Green Revolution and then the Agribusiness Paradigmhave been conceptualized as revolutionary not only with regard to their productivity improvements but also because they brought with them a change of mentality. Based on two different business conceptions, during each period an agrarian elite led the 'revolutionary' process, offering a technological response as the means of guaranteeing agriculture's 'survival' after various crises. For each period, we can identify a correspondence between the status given to technology, the conception of business and the type of government regulation. This paper analyses how the proposition of a 'technological revolution' corresponds to the construction of the ideological leadership through which the agrarian bourgeoisie managed to orientate agrarian development.
