| Abstract | |
In order to obtain our master\'s degree, we developed this work, as a result of an investigation on modern town planning in the city of São Paulo where we discuss how these ideas were conceived. Guided by the urban history study since the nineteenth century, we tried to explain how popular demands were introduced in planners\' work regarding urban and regional planning in São Paulo. In this journey through the first half of twentieth century, we found significant plans and projects trying to arrange São Paulo\'s territory. However, they do not show much importance given to peoples ideas by the experts. In the 1950\'s decade, we could identify social, political and economic aspects in the urban research work developed by the Society for Graphic and Mechanographical Analysis applied to Social Environment - SAGMACS, associated to the Mouvement et Économie Humanisme organization, led by father Louis-Joseph Lebret. Thus, in order to contribute to the comprehension of São Paulo\'s town planning development, we intended to study and to analyze the study of the São Paulo\'s agglomeration urban structure, a report that was never published and even today is rarely discussed by brazilian\'s and São Paulo\'s urban historiography.
