Resumo
Brazil has a lasting regional question and shows tensions at the federal level that look specially sharp in some periods. Behind this, there is a history of strong socio-spatial inequalities of development, generating political struggles which even nourish separatist ideas. Economic globalization implies the possibility of deeper Inter-regional disparities in the country, affecting more negatively areas distant from the Center-South, as the participation of regions and groups of territorial social actors in the related processes tends to be selective. Therefore, globalization looks like fuel to the country's regional question and federal crisis. The inherent risk of economic fragmentation and disturbance in both the social cohesion and the federative order leads to the conclusion that the State has to act effectively, among other things through regional planning conceived at the national level. The country's regional diversity ought to be respected and properly used and the needs of the regional societies have to be contemplated.
