Por uma Visão Estratégica dos Instrumentos Urbanísticos - Questão de Limiares

Abstract

Urban planning practice in Brazil disposes only of a few urban intervention instruments. But, these are not efficacious or powerful to attack the multiples factores that produce urban development. Juridical and institucional instruments derive from Constitution, which defines relationships between agents, State and society, and also between levels of Public Power which make togheter urban interventions. Constitucional instruments need to be reviewed to surpass their limits, introducing changes in State-society relationship, and also promoting a comprehensive treatm ent of urban dynamics
