Resumo: The urban network is composed by cities of different sizes and distinct functional activities inside each scale context. The urban space sets itself in a unique way and with a range of action vectors which, from their uniqueness, link themselves with the outside, a fact that reinforce the urban fabric. The spatial relationships that are kept with its immediate region are associated with this dynamics. From the centrality strength of each city, this region may expand over wider geographical scales. This thesis aims at analyzing the spatial inter-urban interactions of Itabaiana city in the state of Sergipe, an intermediate center of the urban subsystem from Aracaju, in order to unveil its developments and its scope inside the urban network. In Sergipe, this network displays a concentration of urban functions in the capital city of the state, with most cities considered small, not only to matters of inhabitant numbers, but also of the availability of equipment and urban functions which are present. Another relevant aspect of the network that comprises this urban subsystem is the small number of cities considered intermediate. Inside this group of cities, located in the center of the state and with relevant trade and service provisions, Itabaiana stands out. In order to achieve the aims of this thesis, an extensive bibliographic and documental research was made. The local uniqueness was unveiled from the field work, using interviews with the regulatory organizations of the inter-municipal public transportation, questionnaires administered to the users of this kind of transport, as well as data gathering from health and educational institutions. The analysis of the direct research, according to the theoretical framework, enabled the observation of the scope of the influence area that Itabaiana has over the smaller urban centers. Another important finding is the prevalence of this city‟s influence over the cities located in its territorial constituency, as well as over those located in the northwest side of the state, with centrality scope over some cities in the state of Bahia. Details about these spatial relationships enabled not only the identification of the acting strength of Itabaiana in a regional context, but also the verification of the weakness in the offer of essential services in the cities which are under the direct influence of this city, a factor that straighten the thesis of the unbalance of the urban network in Sergipe and in Brazil.
