This article is based largely on research conducted between 2016 and 2019 about research funding policies, knowledge production and the researcher's work in the context of the globalization of higher education. The research aimed to verify the new paradigms of the researcher's work in the face of the advanced scenario of commercialization of knowledge produced in the global academic scope. In this context, the complex object of study unfolded in several situational cases, one of them being the inducing power of research and scientific work by large world corporations while crucial issues for human development appear in the background. For such, this text will discourse through occasional reflections based on the facts obtained, on the international economic order and on the trends of the globalized work in research.
