This paper inquires on the causes, the evolution and the perspectives of the economic crisis since the collapse of Lehman Brothers, until the actuality, i.e. the debt crisis of the southern countries of European Union. By means of Marxian theoretical tools the article explains the reasons which this crisis can be considered as a typical capitalistic crisis, once that the overproduction and the relative fall of the profit rate are common factors in the prevalent part of the world. In this way we drastically exclude the interpretation of some researchers sustaining its financial nature assigning the responsibility to the behavior of a few number of capitals (rating agencies). Giving an interpretation of current evolution of the crisis by means of the intra-capitalistic battle, we show how the capital linked to the dollar, overthrew the main consequences of the crisis - originated in the U.S. in the ‘70s, in the twentieth century - on the EU countries.

This text deals the relationship between the occurrence of the capitalist crisis, the predicament in the reproduction of private property and state intervention as an agent countercyclical deficit and public debt amplification. In other words, we analyze the occurrence of the capitalist crisis of 1929 and the Depression of the 30s, the introduction of Keynesian policy and military spending, which led to capitalist recovery and defined bases of so-called "thirly glorious years" of the postwar period. Then we highlight the return of the crisis in the mid 70s, the introduction of neoliberalism to the occurrence of the global capitalist crisis of 2008 and the return of state intervention in saving large companies and banks. Finally, we affirm that state intervention to try to overcome this crisis ends by amplify it furlher, besides expand the debt, deteriorating more and more the Iiving conditions of the working class. For this reason we defend, neither capitalist restoration or public debt. For an anti-capitalist resort.

This paper intends to analyze the external debt of Maranhão, since 1972, its conversion into public debt, making a connection between the crisis of overproduction in the early '70s and the expansion of a private international monetary system, called Euromarket of currencies, which had in the military regimes in Latin America a fertile field for their actions.
