The fourth issue of Revista Aurora is published with the Dossier Public Policies. The themes are part of the debates proposed by the Social Thought and Public Policies line of our Postgraduate Program in Social Sciences. Configuring one of the main forms of State action, public policies can be understood as the result of disputes between economic groups, politicians, social classes and civil society organizations. In recent decades, public policies have undergone a process of increasing modifications, caused mainly by scenarios of economic globalization that gained significant momentum from the end of the 1970s. Therefore, understanding the directions of public policies suggests, at first, understanding specific interests that correlate the forces that put pressure on the State, or even that control it. In this sense, understanding the configuration of the State based on the correlation of forces in society that direct its policies is essential to the debate proposed by this publication by Revista Aurora. Also seeking to emphasize the essential dialogue between the four lines of research of the Postgraduate Program in Social Sciences, the Miscellaneous section brings articles that contribute to this constant interrelationship. In the Special Section we invite Prof. Dr. Francisco Luís Corsi, contributing with a text in which he analyzes the structural crisis of global capitalism that began in August 2007, and the possibility of restructuring capitalism, as a reaction to this crisis.
