Canaã dos Carajás: um laboratório sobre as circunstâncias da urbanização, na periferia global e no alvorecer do século XXI
(Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Planejamento Urbano e Regional, 2018-04) CARDOSO, Ana Cláudia Duarte; CÂNDIDO, Lucas Souto; MELO, Ana Carolina Campos de
This article addresses the processes of urbanization and urban sprawl in Canaã dos Carajás, a small relatively recent Amazonian municipality. The analysis is dialectically structured according to Lefebvre’s interpretation of the levels of social reality. The global level captures how capitalintensive activities (mining, ranching, and monoculture) have impacted the connection between the place of production and the global market. The mixed level explains how local social groups, inspired by global processes, have mediated urbanization. The local level demonstrates how blind spots in understanding the ongoing processes have impaired the strengthening of diversity, and led to the exclusion of social groups that most depend on the land and nature. We conclude that it is necessary to articulate contemporary formulations and studies on Brazilian urbanization so as to demonstrate the selective manner in which modernization takes place and is constituted in new forms of colonization, whenever economic opportunities formulate socioenvironmental issues in a conservative manner.

Modernização e transformações recentes nos processos intra-urbanos no sudeste do Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-02-05) MELO, Ana Carolina Campos de; CARDOSO, Ana Cláudia Duarte; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3138101153535395
Since 2006, the southeastern Pará has seen great changes in the intra-urban space, led by the private sector, with the participation of various fractions of capital (agricultural, commercial, real estate, financial). Developers, builders, land owners, retail chains and agribusiness investors, supported by the State produced new and modern developments in a previously unprecedented scale in the region. These changes showed the city space, the arrival of recent modernization processes in line with global capitalist dynamic and, at the other end, the grievance of intra-urban inequalities as they are introduced these new processes. It is observed in that context, an increasingly marked subordination of architectural and urban forms to the imperatives of capitalist enterprise, changing, so the sense of architecture and therefore the role of the architect himself, progressively farther from possibility of alliance with the recipients. In the wake of these events, this paper discusses the recent changes in the intra-urban area in southeastern Pará, particularly observed in the cities of Marabá and Parauapebas, and how this scenario articulates the processes that follow global trends, assumed as local manifestations of the contradictions of capitalist expansion of the city.

O papel da grande mineração e sua interação com a dinâmica urbana em uma região de fronteira na Amazônia
(Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, 2016) MELO, Ana Carolina Campos de; CARDOSO, Ana Cláudia Duarte
This article deals with particularities of the urbanization process associated to the mining dynamics, which articulate directly the extraction territories to the global accumulation circuits. On the Amazon frontier, the forms of capital operationalization, altered the urban structuring, the urban-rural relationship and caused an enormous impact on the nature and on the most vulnerable sections of the population. The analysis is based on the Lefebvrian derivation of extended urbanization and on the notion of levels of social reality; has the objective of exploring the relational connections of the urban with the global and local levels and allow the construction of parallels between the iron ore extraction at the Serra dos Carajás and the gold exploration, at the Vale do Husco, northern region Chile. We observe an urban dynamic governed by the global sphere, and parallel processes, embryos of a new urban matrix, in the local sphere, centered on the reproduction of life and the construction of citizenship.
