A crise da federação no Brasil

Resumo

The author intends to make evident a "conceptual reversion" in the case of
federalism in Brazil Rather than union and pact to create a federal state, in our
country federalism has been associated recently to a "decentralization" process
and with just the states and municipalities participating in this deal. In this paper
the intention is to show the way this "conceptual reversion" corresponds at present
to the concrete crisis of this federative pact and, next, to rescue the necessary
associated dimension which federalism assumes.
