This article analyzes the Brazilian fiscal federalism from the Old
Republic to the first years of the 21st century. It stresses three time periods. The
first, until the beginning of the sixties, is marked by the constitution of a base
industry and of a mass internal market. The second runs under an industrial
dynamics associated with the authoritarian regime. The third begins with the transition towards democracy consolidation. Besides the complex subject of the
used division of stages, the article shows the predominance of non cooperatives
federative relations between the Brazilian states, road-of-rule, with very little
coordination degree. Meanwhile, the validity of a tradition local of the states
interrupted during good part of the authoritarian regime and, more recently,
weakened by a process of fiscal decentralization. The article concludes questioning
the capacity of the State and of the federated beings of assisting to the social
demands in an atmosphere through the new social actors existence.
