RESUMO

This thesis represents a reconstitution of the relationships between population, economy and territory in the municipality of Campinas, State of São Paulo, Brazil, between 1930 and 2006. We study the evolution of urban politics in Campinas from the 1930s, still during the area s coffee boom, until the 2000s, when important changes were made to the municipality s urban policies, urged on by the need to draw up and gradually revise the Director Plan. The possibility of applying the new instruments of urbanistic regulation brought on by the enactment of what was known as the "City Statute" is also analyzed. In this way, during the historical period between the 1930s and the first decade of the twenty-first century, one can note a conjunction of forces that were mediated by public authorities. Their main focus consisted of urban policies put in place between capital and labor, since these groups conflicting interests and differing capacities of appropriation of the socially produced resources are at the root of the complex processes of urban structuring that the municipality of Campinas has gone through
