Brazil, throughout the twentieth century, faced major economic changes. At the beginning of the century it was an anemic and agrarian state. Driven by the Crisis of 1929, the Brazilian state, with shocks it is true, has been developing the bones needed to become an industrialized economy. Because of the oil crisis (1973), the State, in an active way, took the external constraint to try, through the intensification of industrialization process, to reduce the oil dependency and to sustain the economic growth. The rise of the new international order in the 1980s resulted in the rhetoric of the denial of the use of industrial policy to change the productive forces, transferring it to the market, a belief that lasted until this previous century. At the beginning of the XXI century, the combination of the concern about global warming and the scarcity of fossil energy sources boosted the political demand for new sources of renewable energy. Thus, the objective of this thesis is to investigate the conditions for the resumption of industrial policy for the development of new sources of renewable energy. We adopt the following guiding research hypothesis: the idea that the concern about global warming and scarcity of fossil fuels, as well as external constraints in the past, are vectors propellants to the adoption of industrial policy for renewable energy in the country.
