Abstract

The city of Brasília, federal capital of Brazil, has an conceptions and contradictions context implicated in his idealization, to the construction of its monuments, roads and urban planning. For decades, the city has expanded its borders, in both ways, symbolic and concrete, and currently represents the synthesis of a dialectical spatiality of the Brazilian population and its territory. These double feature, between the planned utopian and the historical and spatial realities of society, is the focal point of the present paper, seeking to develop such a reflection about Brasilia itself and on the political and ideological totality of which it is a part.
