The budget is an essential tool for assessing the priorities of government and the disputes between the different social classes with regard to the appropriation of funds from the public fund. In this sense, a careful approach regarding the particularities that are assuming the dynamics of capitalist accumulation, as well as the contradictions involved in the process of struggle and implementation of social policies, elements that seem to contribute to help us understand how this dispute has been going . The objective of this work is to analyze the place of social spending in the Lula government. Therefore, we consider it important to analyze the main elements of the dynamics of capitalist accumulation with reference to the creation of financial capital and the process of financialization of the economy, discussing the relationship between public debt, crisis and financialisation of capital; grasp the trends of social policy, seeking identify its configuration today; rescue training process to think of Brazil Lula and the dynamics of class struggle today, and analyze the social spending of the federal government, based on the methodology developed by IPEA, considering the period 2004 to 2011. Because we understand social spending as a result of a process of correlation of forces that have, in the relationship between capital and labor founding its size, this analysis can not be an end in itself. Rather, to understand the peculiarities of the dynamics of accumulation at the present time it is essential to grasp the movement of capital and its power to enforce their interests in dealing with resistance imposed by the working class and thus to fight against his shackles. The role of the state can only be understood in the midst of this plot of class struggle and their decisions express the power of these classes to impose their demands, and bring along the trace of the legacies of the past, especially the bonds of dependency and subordination to imperialist interests. The absence of a break with the capital that marks the rise of the Labor Party to the federal government is permeated by contradictions and analysis of its results lies in a series of controversies, many of which only one will assess greater historical distance. This does not mean it is not possible to undertake an effort to identify the ongoing changes and raise the contradictions, limits and the possibilities offered by the mandates of President Lula. In general, we can say that there was no significant structural advances in this government and that the logic of resource management that prioritizes the payment of public debt remains having undergone specific changes. However, there are some differences in the composition of social spending. These are more linked to the provision of programs for low-income people than for substantive improvement in assuring universal social policies. Anyway, its effect on improving the living conditions and access to the consumption of a portion of the population can be felt.
