The present article aims to consider the use of the methodology of the systemic approach in urban analysis by recognizing cities as complex systems that can be ordered and equated to solve the urban problems. Based on the concepts of the General Theory of Systems, the systemic analysis is indicated by several authors as a suitable methodological way to integrate disciplines in the solution of a real problem. To do so, one must have a complex general problem that presents elements in ceaseless evolution that possess a great variety of interrelationships. Aiming at the application of this methodology, the study turns to the comprehension of the socio-spatial segregation as an integral part of the complex macrosystem of the cities – once this theme is seen as part excluded from this system. A systemic research proposal is developed related to the issue of urban segregation. The research has a descriptive and exploratory nature based on the analysis of theoretical references. By the research it is possible to conclude that the systemic methodological application in urban analyzes – especially in the study of socio-spatial segregation – contributes in a satisfactory way to the accomplishment of urban diagnostics. It was also possible to prove the premise that the segregation can be analyzed as a system that belongs to the macrosystem of cities.
