Abstract

This thesis aims to study the history of the Institute of Architects of Brazil between 1920 and 1970, trying to understand the place that the entity occupied in the Brazilian professional circles and the institutional networks of dialogue that developed at national and international level throughout the period. It intends to discuss the Institute\'s role for the collective construction of a new professional network, for the establishment of effective communication ties and for the creation, assertion and diffusion of architectonic and urbanistic ideas and practices. The narrative was organized in three chapters with a common chronological boundary, striving to analyze these networks built by the IAB in their different scopes: national, American and global, respectively.
