The text highlights the historical role played by Maranhão economy in the national and international division of labor and, in particular, in contemporary transformations of capital globalization, seizing work processes constituted. In Maranhão, social relationships built, both past and today, are explained here from their conditional inclusion on the global dynamics of capital. In this sense, emphasizes the changes taken place in the working world, and in a special way, in labor relations in this federal unit, it is necessary to understand the role that the state took over the whole of capitalist development.
