The present master's thesis is proposed with the intention of unraveling, conceptualizing, and delimiting development, both as a complex process and as a human right. With the initial intention of identifying the genesis and the legal validity of this right, and, subsequently, to correlate development as part of economic studies. With this, the research delves into the possibilities of state regulation in the economy and its possible effects, as well as which regulation model should be followed in light of the constitutional context in which Brazil finds itself. After this, in view of the methodological approach, we move on to the study of the phenomenon of poverty and its unfoldings, also performing an analysis of the current situation of the State of Alagoas. Finally, taking into consideration the possibility of great natural gas exploration in Alagoas, we seek to understand the consequences of such exploration, especially the economic consequences. Thus, given the need for the application of the right to development, the social conjuncture of Alagoas, the possibility of natural gas exploration and the imposition of state action, through regulation, aimed at development, an analysis of paradigmatic developmental projects is proposed, as well as pillars for the elaboration of a national development project linked to reality, without losing sight of the immense technological revolutions and their impacts.
