Summary: The present study aims to investigate and understand the theoretical bases of the poverty political economy interpretation, and its relationship with the current Brazilian conjuncture, considering the period that begins in the year 2003 and extends to 2017. It consists of an investigative effort of apprehension on the interpretation theoretical bases of the poverty political economy their principles and its connection with the present Brazilian conjuncture, placing these theoretical bases in the marks of different theories and ideologies. In this sense, the term poverty political economy, was used to explain the apparent and ideopolitical form as the phenomenon of poverty and capitalist expropriations have been appropriated by the agents and representatives of bourgeois thought that, in a conservative reformism, strengthen the bourgeois domination project, hiding the dynamics that feeds the immanent logic of interest-bearing capital, centered on expropriation, production, and the accelerated and intensified extraction of more value. The research, in the light of the historical and dialectical materialist method, has its methodological path delimited from basic categories constituted and constituents of and by reality, appropriated under and exploratory bias and that allowed a closer approximation to the essential categories to the attainment of the objectives proposed for this study, such as: work, poverty, social formation, State, class struggle. In addition, in order to make use of a collection, which allowed the understanding of conditioning factors that determine the way of being and living of a whole society, such as the ideas defended by the empowerment thesis of the poor, empowerment and entrepreneurship. In the methodological course, bibliographic research elements were appropriated, in order to gather and organize the formulations contained in diverse analytical sources and that dealt with the subject studied. As for the data analysis technique, the content analysis was used to decode the information and to make inferences in liame with the appropriate method. As a result, the constructed dialectical synthesis allowed us to verify that the poverty political economy fulfills the role precisely of offering the favorable and necessary conditions to attend to the bourgeois domination and accumulation interests and, therefore, indispensable to maintain order and Social balance. It acts both in the sphere of consensus and in the field of discipline, using private devices of hegemony and national and international bourgeois domination. From these reflections it became clear that the poverty political economy plays a preponderant role in material and social expropriations, contributing, through manipulation, regression and even repression, to definitively consecrate the capital supremacy and the illusion of an omnipotent market.
