Resumo:  This article explores how the Joint Brazil-United States Economic Development Commission (JBUSEDC) (1951-1953) mirrored the conceptions of Harry Truman’s Point Four program(1945-1953). Based on Brazilian and American archives, this study demonstrates that, reflecting Point Four’s premises, the JBUSEDC coordinated the multiple activities of this program in Brazil, postulated that private investments should have a primary role on promoting development, and reflected US concerns on Cold War international security issues. Indeed, the US made efforts to align JBUSEDC’s development projects with their need to grant access to Brazilian strategic materials.

Apoyándose en archivos brasileños y estadounidenses, este trabajo demuestra el encuadramiento de la CMBEU al Punto Cuatro, no solo por la coordinación de las actividades del programa en Brasil, sino también por concepciones compartidas, favorablesa la participación privada en la promoción del desarrollo y a las prioridades de seguridad internacional de los EEUU en la Guerra Fría. En ese sentido, los EEUU hicieron esfuerzos para sumar los proyectos de la CMBEU a su necesidad de acceso a materiales estratégicos brasileños.   Este artigo explora como a Comissão Mista Brasil-Estados Unidos para o Desenvolvimento Econômico (CMBEU) (1951-1953) refletiu as concepções do programa Ponto Quatro de Harry Truman (1945-1953). Com base em arquivos brasileiros e norte-americanos, demonstra-se que o enquadramento da CMBEU no Ponto Quatro se deu por meio da coordenação das múltiplas atividades do programa no Brasil, da concepção de que investimentos privados teriam um papel fundamental no processo de desenvolvimento e das preocupações de segurança internacional dos norte-americanos na Guerra Fria. Nesse sentido, os EUA fizeram esforços para aliar os projetos de desenvolvimento da CMBEU às necessidades de acesso a materiais estratégicos brasileiros.
