摘要：In global capitalism economic power is undeniably attractive, and so states, especially those lacking resources and incipient in regulation, are easily seduced to overshadow threats and violations of human rights. Thus, the State omits itself in function of economic advantages, relevant, but to the detriment of human and sustainable development, with this, the potentiality of catastrophes and intense violations of human rights is increased. Based on the Samarco case, one of the largest environmental disasters in Brazil, which generated numerous human rights violations, with the use of bibliographic sources and data from the specific case, using the hypothetical-deductive method, an analysis is made of the current system of international accountability, focused only on host states, and modifications that could be adopted with regard to the system of accountability of transnational companies as a way to lead them to respect and integrity with regard to human rights and meet SDGS n. 16 of 2030 Agenda.
