| Abstract | |
The public policies for the preservation of Brazilian cultural heritage have opted for the safeguard of some cities to the detriment of others. It is the purpose of this study, then, to discuss the urban areas that the National Institute of Historical and Artistic Heritage (Iphan) has cautioned, the goal being to understand which city heritage is relevant as a part of the mosaic that constitutes national identity. To achieve this objective, the ways in which the state perceives these areas of the cities were analyzed; first as city monuments, next as city histories and city documents, and finally as a view proposed in this study, as cities territories. In reference to the role of the cities, it has departed from the proposed argument by Lefebvre (2008) to understanding the process of urbanization as political, commercial, or industrial represented in this study, respectively, in the case studies of Iguape (SP), Oeiras (PI), and Cataguases (MG). From this analysis it can be stated that the beginning of the 21st century was characterized by an effort to reshape the presence of the Institute in the entire country, seeking to form a coherent group of heritage cities capable of linking Brazilian territory together. However, even with this new policy, it can be affirmed that in Brazil little held true because every day in all parts of the country important pillars of cultural identity are lost, whether architectural, natural or even the physical pillars of every-day social relations.
