O Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia (PPGEO) do Instituto de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas (IFCH) da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA). Sendo referência na Pós-Graduação em Geografia na Amazônia, o Programa tem por meta configurar-se no Centro de Excelência em Geografia da Amazônia, com ênfase na análise dos agentes, processos, e conflitos nas diferentes escalas. Este é o objetivo científico e institucional estratégico do curso de mestrado, por meio do qual se amplia inserção social e regional na Panamazônia permitindo-nos estreitar intercâmbios na pesquisa e formação de pesquisadores em temas amazônicos com outros centros afins para este estudo na região.

Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Cidades pequenas na Amazônia: um estudo das particularidades urbanas da cidade de Brasil Novo, Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2025-03-10) CRUZ, Hugo Alessandro Meireles; HERRERA, José Antonio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3490178082968263; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8249-5024The Legal Amazon, which encompasses a vast area of tropical forest, has been deeply affected by economic and political dynamics since the mid-twentieth century. In this context, this study aims to understand the urban dynamics of the city of Brasil Novo, considering its unique characteristics as a small city in the Amazon. The socio-spatial formation of the city is understood to have resulted from policies aimed at developing and integrating the Brazilian Amazon into the national economy. The method used to analyze the processes shaping Brasil Novo is historical and dialectical materialism, which supports interpretations based on the periodization of the city’s spatial phenomena to explain its reality. The following methodological procedures were employed: a) documentary and bibliographic research; b) secondary data collection; c) administration of surveys in the city’s commercial sector; and d) administration of surveys in residential neighborhoods. The research revealed that Brasil Novo, which emerged with the construction of the BR-230 highway, exhibits socio-spatial dynamics marked by strong integration between rural and urban areas, driven by agricultural production and the actions of various social and economic agents. The highway plays a central role in connecting the city to external markets and integrating it into the regional urban network. Additionally, it was observed that the neighborhoods of Centro, Cidade Alta, and Jardim Valadares display distinct socioeconomic dynamics, reflecting the productive and social transformations that have occurred over time.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Geograficidade e espacialidades urbanas na Amazônia: o caso das juventudes reassentadas em Altamira-PA com a construção da UHE Belo Monte(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-03-27) CONCEIÇÃO, Ronicleici Santos da; OLIVEIRA, Assis da Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1543002680290808; HTTPS://ORCID.ORG/0000-0003-3207-7400; HERRERA, José Antonio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3490178082968263; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8249-5024This thesis analyzes the urban spatialities of resettled young people, affected by the compulsory displacement caused by the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant, in the Xingu Integration Region, Pará, Amazonia since 2011. This study reveals the complexity of the changes and challenges faced by young people and offers insights if other similar projects are planned for and in the region. Compulsory displacement has resulted in the severing of material and immaterial ties with their former territories, leading to the reconfiguration of spatial dynamics. In addition, these groups have been demonstrating resilience, constructing multiple identities and subjectivities and circumventing socio-spatial inequalities. Although the resettlements offer better physical facilities than the palafitas, socio-spatial segregation persists, and young people continue to face a nuance of these inequalities in their daily lives. This highlights the importance of considering not only the physical infrastructure of the housing context, but also the economic, social, political and cultural dimensions - when designing projects of this nature. A critical aspect is the need to consider the multiple temporalities involved in these processes, recognizing that each resettled person has a unique trajectory and experiences for and with the geographic space. This points to the importance of a holistic and interdisciplinary approach to analyzing the impacts of major projects in the region, with a focus on the well-being of local communities, especially young people who face real and significant challenges in (re)constructing their urban spatialities. The study reveals various aspects of youth in the Jatobá and Laranjeiras Collective Urban Resettlements (RUC), highlighting that creating new spatialities requires time, through the space that conditions youth relations, as well as socio-spatial relations that shape space, such as the rupture of the border between the RUC and the city's public spaces, from which new and old relationships are being (re)constructed, such as interactions with the job market, use of public spaces, recreational practices with the Xingu River, inclusion in social movements, insertion in criminalization, as well as the perpetuation of human rights violations.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Produção forçada de um novo espaço para viver: o caso do Reassentamento Rural Coletivo km 27 – RRC, em Vitória do Xingu/Pará(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-08-29) ARCANJO, Nathany Melo Machado; HERRERA, José Antonio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3490178082968263; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8249-5024Brazil's economic growth is heavily reliant on the exploitation of natural resources, particularly in the Amazon region. However, this exploitation disrupts the socio-spatial dynamics of local communities. The increasing demand for energy, driven by the country's political discourse on development, has led to the implementation of large hydroelectric projects in the Paraense Amazon. An example of this is the construction of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant (UHEBM) on the Volta Grande do Xingu, which resulted in the compulsory displacement of several families living in areas affected by the realization of this large technical object, resulting in deformations in the traditional ways of life of riverine subjects, de characterizing their origins and necessarily transforming them into urban individuals or farmers/rural workers. Those who were once recognized as riparian families, given the condition of the space in which they lived and their direct relationship with the river, are now characterized as resettled families, still under the condition of space that transfigures them into resettled individuals from the Rural Collective Resettlement. In view of these transformations in the region, the research aimed to understand the production of space in the Collective Rural Resettlement of km 27, located in Vitória do Xingu - PA (RRC), this resettlement is conceived by external agents with the purpose of providing conditions equivalent or superior to those that the families had before the construction of the hydroelectric plant. For the primary data survey, semi-structured interviews were conducted with both the resettled families and the families living in the Resettlement in the years 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022, allowing an understanding of the production of the RRC space, as well as the apprehension of the reality of the relocated families. In addition to fieldwork, official documents from Norte Energia, such as consolidated reports and others related to the object of study, were analyzed. It was verified that the relocated families obligatorily seek to establish new modes of production, new strategies, and new socio-spatial dynamics in the new space, trying to adapt to what external agents have imposed as reproductive assistance for their new living conditions.
