This research aims to identify the type of the development in the municipality of Itaguai, in Rio de Janeiro, considered the characteristics of Local Development. The high public and private investment in the region result in a substantial increase in the municipal tax collection and one of the highest GNP per capita in the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro. In parallel, we observed that government transfers of federal and state funds to the municipality, also increased significantly. The accelerated growth that has been experienced in the city is entered in the study of comparative indicators of socioeconomic development, such as the Human Development Index of Municipalities, HDI-M form. Based on the theoretical framework of Local Development, establishes a critical analysis about the processes that could lead to a real appreciation of the local identity and its territory. As a result, we identify the existence of several cities in one, unconfiguring the category of municipality, the existence of powers and interests that overlap. In general, weak popular participation, competition-oriented market, non-priority educational development, low entrepreneurial action, lack of formal networks, governance process in critical condition, local colonel conduct evidence and valuation of private interests at the expense of collective appear as a result of semi-structured interviews in the case study, the direct non-participant observation and literature search. It is also evident that the grand investment process has its origin in the direct interest of Itaguai privileged geographic location and its logistical benefits, during which are clearly broken local characteristics.
