Abstract

To analyse the decentralization as a decisive power transfer to the municipality or to the city counsil/local government implies the recognition of the municipalities as members of the federation, in a country where the idea of federation is almost distorted. In Brazil, representative system and popular participation cross each other, producing different turbulances in the way to decentralization.
