ABSTRACT
The city of São Paulo is historically characterized by significant structural socioeconomic inequalities. Facing it demands new ways of managing public policy, as the challenge of making it a sustainable city is unavoidable. This essay presents evidence of how sustainability and reduction of inequalities express a socioeconomic process of a unitary nature. The next city administrations will be required to make a significant effort in this direction to address the structural urban crisis that has characterized the city for several decades and to mitigate future environmental and social risks.
