Resumen
The research seeks to analyze the municipal planning process of Brumadinho in
order to understand if and how the issue of mining, the main economic activity and
socio-environmental problem of the municipality, has been addressed. Located in the
Quadrilátero Ferrífero and belonging to the RMBH, the municipality of Brumadinho
had its first Master Plan instituted in 2006, which is still in effect today. After two
revision proposals, in the years 2012 and 2016, the rupture of the tailings dam at the
Córrego do Feijão mine, in January 2019, justified a new revision of the Master Plan
with the purpose of incorporating the social and environmental problems after the
disaster. Understanding the socio-environmental issue in Brumadinho in its
interscalar dimension and inserted in a situation of mining-dependence, we seek to
assess what were the changes and permanences in the planning process before and
after the disaster and if, in fact, there were advances in the instruments regarding to
approach socio-environmental problems and to balance the interests of the local
community involved, and also to discuss one of the limits identified in the
performance of municipal planning in the face of the articulation of the great
economic interests of mining companies in the municipal territory.
