This work aims to investigate the implementation of distance higher education in Brazil, its growing and planning, searching to understand how this process is in accordance with the articulations to the global expansion of higher education. In order to do so, it was necessary to examine the context in which the implementation, diffusion and growing occured in the process of expansion and globalization of cultural and durable goods, including among them technology and education.. To understand this process it was necesary to go through authors who make a ctitical and dialectical analysis as Marx (1999), Gramsci(2000), Chauí (2003), Ianni (2003, 2003), Dias Sobrinho (2005), Dourado (2001, 2002) and Frigotto (1999). Documents of multilateral onganizations are analysed such as the ones from the World Bank, the United Nations Organizations to Education, Science and Culture, and the Organizaton for Economic Co-Operation and Development, as well as the movements and articulations for superior education global expansion, as the World Conference on Higher Education (1998) and the construction of the European Area for Higher Education. This work searches to bring up elements which relate the multilateral organisms discourses to the interests of the big economical groups, supported by the discourse of the importance of professional qualification and the technological development as a key-factor to the economic development. This discourse presents a logic that justifies the expansion of higher education in the same manner of the expansion of the global capital, enphasises the technical investiment in the formation of teachers and implements the distance education, an instrument which materialise the effort of multilateral organizations, governments and universities to accomplish the process of capitalis expansion. The study carried out shows that this process happens in a contradictory way, through the restruturation of the Higher education institutions and through the apprehension of a certain culture of distance education. The expansion of distance education represents a reality which happens in interfaces with educational and capitalist expansions, however, the solution to the limitations and contradictions of this modality of education is in the investiment of basic quality standards and in the real guarantee of public support, a hard tast reserved to those who intend to breask up with the technicism present in actual education. Key-words: distance education, higher education, privatization, internationalization
