The study aims to analyze how the work “The cost of rights” by Cass Robert Sustein and Stephen Holmes can contribute to the strategic planning of the development of post-88 Brazil based on the awareness that rights are expensive and that budgetary resources are scarce and it is justified by the lack of equalization between the economic growth and human development indices in the country, published in the latest research, and government cuts made in the 2022 budget in essential sectors for development that distance the Federative Republic of Brazil from achieving its fundamental objectives. The methodology involves interdisciplinary research with an epistemological orientation in critical theory, brings together theory and praxis and articulates aspects of Sociology, Economics and Constitutional Law, given the relevance of the dialogue of knowledge to address economic growth and human development. The text adopts inductive and deductive reasoning, in qualitative research, with the techniques of document analysis, data and bibliographic review. It is expected to contribute to the reflection on selective investments in rights that encourage training, self-discipline, inclusion and social cooperation, in order to enable the development and achievement of fundamental goals of the Brazilian State.
