Abstract

The one-idea concept has prevailed over the choice of instruments, policies and urban investments, oriented by the option of inserting cities in the productive internationalization process. According as a natural action, such proceeding represents a mirror of intentions that transcend the local, being incorporated into the popular imaginary as a consensus. What effects does such understanding provoke in the urban space production and in the citizenship exercise? How has it been assimilated in metropolitan management, particularly in the case of Curitiba -paradigmatic city on urban planning and environmental management efficacy? This paper deeps in technical, juridical and institutional implications on metropolitan space adaptations to receive the recent investments projects -commercial, industrial and the real state ones. The overview of hidden events under this emblematic city appearance may subside a new way of urban management definition, drawing a participative and including city, ready to carry out a new urbanity.
