TRAVASSOS, Luciana  and  PORTES, Bruno. Metropolitan rural: characterization and regulation in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (Brazil). GOT [online]. 2018, n.14, pp.359-380. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2018.14.015.

The studies about the Brazilian rural have advanced in the recognition of the heterogeneity of these territories, subsidizing policies of rural development. However, these studies do not consider the municipalities located in metropolitan regions and its rurality. Moreover, as can be observed in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (MRSP), the characteristics that allow the identification of the rural territory in these contexts coexist with an extensive fragmented periphery, which remains in a process of demographic growth. The regulation of land use also does not see its complexity, which contributes to weakening the rural in this context. This article reviews the literature on the concepts of new rurality and periurban, presents the characteristics of the metropolitan rural in the MRSP, in order to foment the discussion about its characterization and regulation.

Keywords : metropolitan rural; new rurality; peri-urban; spatial planning.
