Abstract

The purpose of this work is to point out some of the most significant elements of the growing process of fragmentation of the urban space in the city of Recife. This process occurs as a result of the developing model adopted and oriented by a “vertical logic” of capitalist production of space. Therefore, we seek to understand
the relationship between development and fragmentation of the urban space, as well as the character of urban planning and management practices in a city adrift of privatizing strategies of real estate capital. The reflective arguments are based on a brief historical incursion and a concise analysis of the Projeto Novo Recife/PE, one
of the mega-projects in evidence in the city today.
Keywords: development, fragmentation, projeto Novo Recife.
