RESUMO

The adoption of neoliberal economic policies of american patterns by latin-american countries in their entireness since the 80`s has been called the Washington Consensus. The nature of such entirety among such different economic, social and political countries has been questioned by many authors as regards the lack of originality in these policies.The adoption of these policies by latin-american countries in their entireness and the universalizing and legitimating discourse that has promoted it, which has derived from an intelectual revolution, stand for the greater novelty of this Consensus.Thus, the ideas, in their influencing feature upon governmental policies, have been identified. This feature is here supported by neogramscians works as in Robert Cox´s and Stephen Gill´s. Their hegemony conception is that one established by a country in a civil global society through its material and social bases, as for ideology.In Brazil, there is a special element which facilitates the incorporation of the neoliberal directions of the Washington Consensus: the transnationalization of the macroeconomy directing sectors. This work aims to demonstrate how this economists elite passage through international organisms, mainly north American, tends to draw them near to their positions as well as confer them greater evidence.This evidence, at its turn, enlarges the chances for these professionals to take offices. Once in office, the more probable it is for them to apply the economic policies, imported from the hegemonic country, as those known as the Washington Consensus ones.
