The creation of the metropolitan areas in Brazil was mainly linked to the time frame set by the Military Dictatorship (1964-1985). One of the key State strategies of action at the time was the growth of the urban planning scope through technical and technological promotion, made possible via international cooperation. Regarding such considerations, this thesis presents the history of the Porto Alegre/RS Metropolitan Area, whose planning was conceived through the Technical Cooperation Deal between Brazil and the German Federal Republic/GFR. The specificities that the international technical cooperation brought to the making of the Metropolitan Development Plan have been analyzed, reaching the aims of identifying the institutions, agents and motivations within Brazil and the GFR, between 1963 and 1978. To this end, unpublished correspondences found in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of both countries, plans adopted in universities, agencies and companies, Brazilian and German, were considered, besides oral accounts by some of the experts who acted in the project. The main hypothesis suggested regards the generation of a transnational sphere of knowledge sharing which peaked in the flexibilization of notions such as welfare state and underdevelopment, which provided guidelines for the cooperation acts in a post-war world. In this regard, it was discerned the extent of which the circulation of ideas about urban planning in the ‘thrid world’ was subject to adaptation and ruptures when linked to the authoritarian and developmental Brazilian project.
