The efforts to remedy such conflicts have been focusing on attempts to pass a tax reform to consolidate state’s value-added taxes (ICMS) laws. They propose to shift the interstate tax incidence to the time and place of consumption. This paper aims to investigate the conjunctural determinants of this space-time matrix, by identifying the concrete features of this new order. Through a critical review of the organizational and institutional formats - considered as "adequate" for the context of modern state - by identifying contradictions. In addition, to subsidize the debate in the literature about the subject, the text seeks to subsidize the orientation and application of public policies in the area.</p><p></p>
