Diversidade territorial e transferências constitucionais para os municípios: considerações sobre a economia regional goiana

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to discuss the territorial diversity in Goiás based on constitutional transferences to municipalities. Constitutional transferences such as FPM, FUNDEB, and ICMS represent the largest share of resources sent to municipal governments. Each of these transferences has a direct relation with the demographic and economic dynamics of municipalities. To discuss the relations between federal and state transferences to municipalities in Goiás, we focused on the microregional scale. Our aim is to contribute to a theme that is not often approached by Geography, despite its singular importance in the construction of governmental policies on municipal and regional scales.
