Currently there is a growth in the use of nanotechnologies, within the fourth industrial revolution, providing a series of concerns in relation to ethical, legal and social aspects, as well as risks to health and the environment. Given this reality, with many risks, it has become increasingly difficult for the law and the State to follow up on the production of legislation. We seek to answer, with this article, the following research question, from a systemic-constructivist methodological perspective: is it possible to create regulatory legal scenarios based on the different legal principles existing in Brazilian law, aiming at the supervision of nanotechnologies and nanomaterials, at the light of Gunther Teubner’s legal pluralism? For this, the concepts of risk were presented, based on the studies of Luhmann and Ulrich Beck, the ideas of legal pluralism of Gunther Teubner, of citizen companies and of regulated self-regulation. And at the end, an example of this solution was presented, through the Law guidelines booklet for the industrial and commercial segment that works with nanotechnologies. In conclusion, through regulated self-regulation it is possible to create regulatory legal scenarios, which enable legal plurality, to help in normative production, seeking to keep pace with changes in society.
