description The contemporary debate on participatory democracy agrees with the proposal of new political-territorial arrangements to build more virtuous relations between citizen and state. From this perspective, the article proposes to discuss metropolitan governance from the premise that new territory management strategies are fundamental for thinking about the contemporary dynamics of the urban phenomenon. We use researches already developed about Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Region to analyze the proposed governance of the metropolitan region of Mexico City from the new Political Constitution promulgated in 2018. With a comparative investigation between the two cases, the article reveals the virtues and impasses existing in the new Constitution of the Mexican capital and show political and spatial characteristics that need to be taken into account to manage one of the largest urban agglomerations in the world.
