Therefore, we seek to identify the aspects of macro and micro structural constituting the current Brazilian social protection system and national education policy with its features and characteristics, in an environment which capitalist accumulation makes up its structural morphology and neoliberal ideas his inspiration central. The research was organized into three main stages: literature, field research and data analysis for the preparation of the results.
