Abstract
Professor Milton Santos, a well-known and famous Brazilian geographer, was granted the Honoris Causa Doctor Degree in the Universidad Complutense de Madrid in 1994 and died in 2001. His academic and professional activities, with plenty of creative talent, are remembered; his thought is analyzed through his last two books on a better globalization and on Brazil. One of his most interesting collaborations to Brazil culture is summarized and commented: a collection of his newspaper articles where he discussed on the most relevant aspects of geographical thought and of social and political problems.
