Abstract

The economic and financial globalization produces impacts worldwide, with the main foundation backed by the liberation of the markets. This is not just a current phenomenon, its peak occurred after the seventies decade, with the financial crisis, initially by Banks and Multinationals. As a source of economic/financial move, globalization has generated reflections on society and, therefore, generating strong impact on increasing unemployment, deregulation and flexible labor rights. To try to contain unemployment, due mainly to the economic/financial globalization, the policies of austerity required in Europe, more specifically in relation to the countries that have adopted the Euro currency as a model to be followed, appears to solve the problem of the crisis unemployment. The purpose of this study is to analyze globalization and its relation to unemployment and the austerity policies imposed on some countries of the Euro zone as a mechanism for solving the unemployment crisis. Thus, this present study was based on doctrinal research and data provided by IBGE, EAPN and ILO. Finally, we present the final considerations about the survey, answering the question whether the austerity policy has contributed to the decline in unemployment or not.
