The history of various societies shows that a one-dimensional perspective of social development was responsible for the construction, since the direction of this process was given by the market. With the goal of advancing the debate on the relationship between state, society and development, the text discusses, from a historical perspective, the reasons which led to the disintegration of social systems, the evidences of the fragility of liberal ideas and development thinking forged from the crisis of liberalism.This discussion leads to the conclusion that the direct relationship between the situation of some countries and the employment level of strategic resources after World War II rekindled the importance of state intervention, strengthening the idea that the state should coordinate relations that arise from a project that has no longer only the industrialization as a means of capital accumulation. In line with Polanyi (1980 ) – who highlights the fragility of the liberal ideas of Smith (1983 ) and launches the substantive approach to economics – and Guerreiro Ramos (1989, 1996) – pointing the losses of one-dimensional perspective to the development of contemporary societies, the work is concluded by introducing the idea of paraeconomic paradigm as a theoretical alternative that pierces the neo-developmentalist ideals and as a strategy to enable the new ideal state that arises from the relationship between this agent and the twenty-first century society.
