It aims to present the theoretical influences of the so-called “New School of Urbanism” responsible for providing new academic approaches on the urban issue in Brazil from the perspective of the peripheral city. The two theoretical matrices that served as influence for the movement are presented: French Marxists and Brazilian social interpreters, with emphasis on Celso Furtado and Francisco de Oliveira. It starts from the balance made by Ermínia Maricato in a chapter called “Formation and Impasse Of Critical Thinking About The Peripheral City”, which integrates a book of her authorship with the title “The impasse of urban politics” where the author evaluates “cycle” of struggles and conquests in the social, political and academic fields that began during the military dictatorship, but which, after the creation of the Ministries of Cities, in 2003, announced the moment of “the end of the cycle”.
