The Brazilian National Policy for Regional Development – PNDR was established by Decree 6047/2007. However, many public managers claim that it has yet to reach a status of State Policy or a political or a federal consensus able to promote a non-fragmented and even growth of regions. The discussion is now around the institutionalization of a new policy, PNDR II, which remains in efforts to reduce regional inequalities and seeks to remedy shortcomings in the first proposal. Despite the proposal to update the legislation in question, the metropolitan territory of Brasilia, also defined by federal legislation and called RIDE DF and Entorno - Integrated Region of Development of the Federal District and Entorno is identified as a priority area of ​​planning and management, but its metropolitan governance continues to generate conflicts and maintain inequality in its peripheral areas. To contribute to the debate of possible reach of PNDR in the management of important and complex city, which is also the federal capital, and its respective metropolitan area, we suggest a theoretical and methodological analysis of the urban governance model. Throughout the analysis, we will demonstrate the relationship between PNDR I and II with the - RIDE-DF and Entorno, a proposal for territorial management of the Federal District of Brazil and its urban agglomeration. In this context, the objective of this article is to analyze the instruments proposed by the New National Policy for Regional Development in the face of the challenge of ensuring better regional or metropolitan governance for the RIDE DF e Entorno.
