This doctoral thesis presents the conceptual and methodological contributions of systemic analysis involving social sciences and natural sciences in the debate about the applicability of sustainable development on the costal Amazon territory. The main challenge is to use an innovative theoretical framework that articulates social-ecological systems - SES and resilience in the analysis of primary and secondary data. The research focuses on the bragantina coastal region, and uses the social (communities of fishermen) and ecological (mangrove) systems as the sampling area. The program “Dynamics and Management of Mangrove Areas – MADAM”, involving ten years of interdisciplinary research, serves as the main source of information. Based on the concepts of resilience and SES, this thesis analyzes the relationship between the use of natural resources and the local organization and socio-economical structure. The objective is to analyze the resilience of Para’s coastal socio-ecological system, based on the ongoing process of socio-economic development, identifying what changes are generated, and how the coastal system reacts and adapts to new settings. The goal is to provide alternatives for the correct development of the region studied. The result reflects a panorama of current conditions of the coastal bragantina region. In this work it is shown that the main facts contributing to increase or decrease of the region's socio-ecological resilience, understood as the ability to self adapt and reorganize in the face of changes and disruptions, are particularly endogenous driving forces, especially the social capital and the Local Ecological Knowledge - CEL, which potentially provides a feed-back for the sustainable planning in the Amazonian shore region.
