Abstract
This article aims at questioning the main contradictions of the Brazilian developmental model, the "neodevelopmentalism", and it does so by focusing the relationship between environment and health, and its main expressions in the current context. It is said that on behalf of economic sustainability, a socio environmental unsustainability is promoted, and it spreads over the population´s health. We intend to unveil the contradictions of the current situation and its supporting ideology, which expresses the bourgeois way of being itself.
