Top Attractions in Sergipe State

Santa Maria Airport

Aracaju–Santa Maria Airport is the airport serving Aracaju, Brazil and it is operated by Infraero. The airport is under reform. From 2014 until now, there has been a controversial movement around changes on the airport naming rights. Aiming to honor the then PT governor Marcelo Deda, who died in December 2013 in full respect of its mandate, the act play on changing names seeks to recognize one of the greatest institutional reformers on state of Sergipe history. This scene has strained the local political mood through the possibility for the also appointment of parliamentary Pedro Valadares who died in the same accident with then 2014 presidential candidate Eduardo Campos. More recently other more traditional namesless political and, the ones truly representative of local culture, have also been mentioned such as Silvio Romero and Tobias Barreto. Symptomatic parliamentary resistance by making the naming exchange has enraged some religious groups that have stated that public goods must represent all society and not to favor one particular group over others. They argue, therefore, that more impartiality is needed to local public goods regarding as, for example, its cultural projections. Indeed, it is also undeniable that the current naming rights do not even have specific representation of local culture but of a certain hegemonic roman-catholic group that arbitrary commands 'under the table' major public local goods.
