description This article analyzes brazilian metropolises from the perspective of their urban issues and shows their potentialities. The analysis finds that, despite of the great differences among the 26 brazilian metropolises, they all have a similar set of change dynamics. To understand these dynamics, the article focuses on the changes that are part of the process that creates such metropolises, and on the changes that occur as the metropolis acquires new characteristics, both in the consolidated downtown areas and in the new spatial arrangements at the intercity and regional levels. The article emphasizes that during the last two decades of the 20th century, brazilian metropolises increased their double role as agents and arenas of the socioeconomic, political and territorial change process experienced by the regions in which they are located. Deemed a great wealth of the nation, the metropolitan urban framework has the potential to create a unified and connected metropolitan urban network in its territory. This network will rise from more intense and permanent exchanges at various levels, ranging from cultural to economic. The article points out that it is necessary to draw a metropolitan policy for the national territory, based on the strengthening of large infrastructure systems, so that the present" set of metropolises" becomes a genuine" metropolitan network."

Este artículo aborda las metrópolis brasileras desde el punto de vista de sus cuestiones urbanas y busca señalar sus potencialidades. El análisis considera que a pesar de haber gran distinción entre las veintiséis unidades que componen el cuadro metropolitano brasilero, existe un conjunto de dinámicas de transformación muy semejante en todas ellas. Para entender estas dinámicas, el artículo busca enfocar las alteraciones incorporadas en el propio proceso de formación de las metrópolis, que están adquiriendo nuevas características, tanto en las áreas más centrales y consolidadas, como en los nuevos arreglos espaciales en escalas interurbanas y regionales. El artículo subraya que, a lo largo de las dos últimas décadas del siglo 20, las metrópolis brasileras profundizaron el doble papel de agentes y escenarios del proceso de transformación socioeconómica, política y territorial vivido por las regiones donde se localizan. Visto como una gran riqueza de la nación, el cuadro urbano metropolitano tiene el potencial de crear en el territorio el funcionamiento de una red urbana metropolitana unida y conectada. Red que nacerá de intercambios más intensos y permanentes en diversos niveles, desde los culturales hasta los económicos. Este artículo señala que es necesario trazar una política metropolitana para el territorio nacional basada en el fortalecimiento de los sistemas de grandes infraestructuras, para que el actual" conjunto de metrópolis" pase a funcionar como una genuina" red metropolitana".

O artigo sublinha que ao longo das duas últimas décadas do século 20, as metrópoles brasileiras aprofundaram o duplo papel de agentes e arenas do processo de transformação socioeconômica, política e territorial vivido pelas regiões onde se localizam. Visto como uma grande riqueza da nação, seu quadro urbano metropolitano tem o potencial de criar, no território, o funcionamento de uma rede urbana metropolitana coesa e conectada. Rede a qual nascerá de trocas mais intensas e permanentes em diversos níveis, desde os culturais até os econômicos. O artigo aponta ser necessário traçar uma política metropolitana para o território nacional baseada no fortalecimento dos sistemas de grandes infra-estruturas, para que o atual" conjunto de metrópoles" passe a funcionar como uma genuína" rede metropolitana".
