Abstract
This article uses the Marxian analysis of the nineteenth century English factory legislation, to demonstrate how a concrete approach to labor policy in Brazil can be inspired by the guidelines included in the Volume I of Das Kapital. The article covers the period from the regulation established by President Vargas, to the wild deregulation proposed by President Temer, exposing the links between capital accumulation and the Brazilian labor policies.
