Abstract

A flood of professionals with very distinct profiles and activities in this area was revealed during our investigation following the professional path of Victor da Silva Freire Jr. through the schools he attended, the international urbanism congresses, industry conferences, international exhibitions and the Congrès de la Route, highlighting different moments of the French foreign policy expansion in Brazil. Worth of note in this research is the formative role of the École des Ponts et Chaussées on several engineers who worked in Brazil, in addition to references regarding urbanists in the international scene and, particularly the first international urban planning conference, in which Freire participated.
