This text presents and discusses the contents of the “Statute of the City” (Federal Law 10.257 of 2001). Major attention is given to the contradictions, conflicts and changes of the text with respect to questions of urban landownership, of the rights and responsibilities of the three levels of power (Union, states and municipios) and of urban planning and social participation. The absence of a spatial dimension in the directions for the application of the legal instrument is also discussed. The article also questions the legal assignment of the municipio as the major planning unit for its power of intervention is often limited to the urban areas of the municipal territory
