Opening this section we have the article by Ana Cristina Barreto dealing with the topic of pharmaceutical patents and their role in development; Next we bring the work of Francisco Corsi, who analyzes the recent structural crisis of capitalism and the possible transformations of the current accumulation pattern. Authors Frederico de Sá Costa and Rodrigo Wunder contribute, in this edition, with an analysis of the concepts of "terrorism" and "counterterrorism" applied to the ideological rhetoric that supports the fight against the "War on Terror" undertaken by the United States. Saulo de Castro Lima presents us with a study on Brazilian development in the 1960s and 1970s, where he considers the constant inflections and corrections of the economic policies adopted in the period. Below we have the article authored by Edson Neves Júnior, where he discusses the changes seen in the foreign policy of the government of Luís Inácio Lula da Silva on the topic of climate change. André Luís Scantimburgo addresses the concept and implications of sustainable development that is propagated by multilateral agencies, and in particular by the World Bank, as a solution to the most recent environmental problems, associating it with a front of capital accumulation linked to the commodification of resources natural. To this end, it uses an analysis of policies aimed at Brazilian water resources in the 1990s. João Paulo Schittini reflects on the foreign policy of the Lula government to promote human rights, as an instrument for promoting development and questioning the current international order . Felipe Calabrez da Silva makes a critical analysis of the proposed reform of the Brazilian State apparatus that emerged at the end of the 1980s, and its relationship with the liberal macroeconomic policy that was subsequently adopted. Closing this section, Sandra Siqueira da Silva makes a bibliographical survey on the topic "development" with the aim of considering the patrimonialization of culture as a contribution to development.
