Urbanização sem urbanidade: um cenário de incertezas

Resumo

The essay intends to defend the necessity of a socially acepted new
ideal for brazilian urban development. This ideal should include critical
constributions already done to some aspects of the previous modernization
projects and its social and spatial consequences. The diffusion of
this new ideal is considered as being specially relevant in reason of the
recognized gap between urbanization degree and urbanity levels at daily
social relationships and political life. In support of that analitical perspective
the essay put together some data about actual institutional and estructural
limits to named urban cooperation.
