Abstract

Transnational companies in the globalized scenario operate in several countries with the purpose of reducing costs and increasing profitability, and in underdeveloped countries it presents itself as a favorable means for this, since these countries have more flexible laws, cheaper labor and inefficiency regulatory framework. These concerns are not shown to be in line with issues related to human rights. Thus, this study aims to analyze Humanist Capitalism as one of the essential instruments for the realization of human rights and, consequently, the promotion of the human right to development. The research will be carried out through a literature review, bringing the main concepts related to the theme, and, using the deductive method, it shows that human rights are not respected in the face of violations practiced by transnational companies, which affects development human and social inequality increases. It is concluded that Humanist Capitalism meets the proposals of the human right to development, as seen for economic progress, thus making human rights effective in all dimensions, including meeting the precepts of the Brazilian economic order.
