The crisis of Capitalism set up in seventies with the consolidation of neoliberal ideology and the perspectives of globalization is the central point for the understanding of the process of difusion and legitimation of this new paragigm that starts to give a new orientation to urban policies. The local governments were in charge of promoting the economical development and they start to fight for the bussiness with others cities making use of marketing strategies in order to attract investments. This new form of management called urban enterprising is displayed by a strategic planning when the city is not taken a whole it self, but worked only in specific places and promoted by events.In Rio de Janeiro this model appers in the nineties with the strategic planning of local authority, in the context the city was chosen in 2001 to host the Pan American Games of 2007. The main discourse now, dispite all cost, is to make changes in the inner organization of the city in order to be accepted in the city markets, and to receive external investiments. Therefore, the Marina da Glória that is a pubblic space but was envolved in a context of dispute between the ones who wants to privatize it and ones who wants to keep it a public domain for the free acess of all. The main aim of this stud is to analise the interprising model of urban management idealized in the City of Rio de Janeiro and mada concrete by strategic planning. The intention, with the subject Marina da Glória, is to display how the Government makes use of important megaevents to show up and to develop the city, actually, it means a game of business interest that more and more fragment the city.
