Abstract

Brazilian cities usually have the full cycle of birth, growth, decline - and sometimes disappearance or recuperation- within short periods of time, sometimes less than a century old. The text looks at several situations, Londrina (Paraná), founded in 1929, Sinop (Mato Grosso), 1974, Ouro Preto (Minas Gerais, 1711), and Paraty (Rio de Janeiro, 1597). Amongst the establishment of state capitals, we have chosen the examples of Belo Horizonte (1897) and Palmas (1989), and at the national scale, the case of Brasília (Federal District), founded in 1960.

 

Key-words: Life cycle. Brazilian cities. Foundation, growth, decline.
