The metropolitan dynamics that characterize the current amazon context, lead to an urban spatial reshape that need to be considered, based on a dialectical reading of this reality. In Belém, it is noted that the metropolis shows a dispersed mold. As it decentralizes, it expands, creating new expansion arrays beyond the considered legal metropolis’ borders. In this sense, this paper’s objective is to analyse the city of Castanhal’s socio-spatial dynamics against the sprawl process in Belém, considering the notorious link between them. In order to achieve this goal, three variables were considered: the providing of residential areas, industrial production and access to basic services. Therefore, the interpretation method based on the historical and dialectical materialism was used as theoretical-methodological tool, where the relations of production are analyzed as a social-historical consequence. That said, the metropolization process and urban sprawl must be realized from the dialectical movement of society’s spatial using. About the technical and empirical instruments, it must be said that this research’s nature is approached in a qualitative and quantitative perspective. In the quantitative perspective, some techniques were applied: the urban expansion quantification of Castanhal made from an analysis of satellites images from 1984, 1994 e 2008, using a software called ARCGIS 9.3, as well as the making of graphics and tabs using gathered data from official bodies, such as the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), in order to statistically identify the relations force between Castanhal and Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB). For the qualitative perspective, techniques such as survey and bibliographic analysis were used, as well as documental analysis and survey, and the making of interviews with representatives of the main Castanhal’s industries and distributors, in order to examine this city’s industrial production and its link to the metropolitan sprawl in Belém. Based on gathered and analyzed data, it was found that the urban spatial use in Castanhal dedicated to residences, industries and the third sector, create an interdependency link with RMB. One could infer that such relation is created by a new metropolitan configuration, based on flux dynamics that leads to the existence of an more amplified, disperse and discontinuous urban unity, confirming the need to study such metropolitan phenomenon beyond its institutionalized borders, and the importance of understanding the urbanization process that leads to metropolitan considered features on certain areas.
