| Abstract | |
The thesis analyzes the insertion of paulistan rapid transit question at the Municipality of São Paulo\'s agenda between 1955 and 65, under conjugate urbanistical and socio-political points of view, considering techno-political conflicts, origins, evolution and initiatives in solving them practically by building the first rapid transit line. It embraces the lapse from 1898 to 1975 - eventually overwhelming it - cused into the \"institutional life\" of the Ante-projeto de um Sistema de Transporte Rápido para São Paulo, elaborated by the Comissão do Metropolitano da PMSP presided by Francisco Prestes Maia and into the electoral moods of populism in that period. Circulation and traffic problems during the paulistan metropolis forming motivate the first rapid transit proposals. Their aggravation forced state to intercede, when PMSP took apparently practical steps in 1955, and to admit the greatness of urban problems resultant from nearly eighty years of oversight in point of this. Addictionally, the Ante-projeto was studied under the light of different conceptions of \"town\" stood up for São Paulo by three conflicting urbanistic thought \"trends\", polarized by the technicians Prestes Maia, Luiz Ignácio Romeiro de Anhaia Mello and the politician Adhemar Pereira de Barros, that reveal the existence of socio-economic groups in political fight for free trade or protectionism between 1920\'s and 50\'s, during the country transition of civilization model from Europe to USA. As background there are the diffusion and gradual institutionalization of urban rodoviarismo since the 1910\'s by Washington Luiz, Vargas and Adhemar. In 1956 São Paulo drawn to the paradox of a railroad proposal of collective mass transportation presented at the right time that brazilian economics took an important quality leap, with the implantation of automobilist industry ideologically centered at the urban personal transporting and at the favoured attention to transport demands of agro-exportation.
