The large development projects in the Amazon are agents of transformation in these territories until the present moment. In the municipality of Cachoeira do Piriá, in the northeast of Pará, several projects such as mining and the construction of BR 316, boosted the formation of a critical area, in a disorderly occupation process, where illegal mining was structured as the main economic activity in the region and advancedaround the urban core and among vulnerable social groups, changing their territories and their quality of life. The problem of this study, therefore, is to understand how goldexploration produces socio-environmental risks in the territory of Cachoeira do Piriá- PA. This study brings a political ecology approach as a theoretical contribution and asmain authors Acselrad (2004), Martinez (2007) and Porto (2012). The research is a case study and has a qualitative nature with methodological procedures anchoredin bibliographic and documentary research, through access to secondary data and public websites. The field study carried out took place in gold exploration areas locatedin rural communities and in the urban core, and in relation to the use of geotechnologies, maps of land use, location and heat maps (Kernel) were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the territory presents systematic socio-environmental risks that are mainly concentrated among vulnerable social groups, among which peripheral communities, quilombolas, fishermen and family farmers. The disproportionality in the distribution of risks over the territory is characterized by high potential among social groups, with emphasis on security risk, water risk, pedologicalrisk, health risk, and risk to the way of life, which are intensified by the absence of actions from public power and the fragility of legislation aimed at gold mining. Finally, a booklet on the socio-environmental risks of mining was created as a research product, as an information instrument to contribute to knowledge and resistance among vulnerable social groups, as well as assisting public authorities in monitoring and managing socio-environmental risks.

Os grandes projetos e suas implicações na saúde de comunidades tradicionais em Barcarena-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018) SILVA, Silvany Favacho da; NASCIMENTO, Nádia Socorro Fialho; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0757907626776627; HAZEU , Marcel Theodoor; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1235685116888097
This dissertation addresses the implications of large health projects in traditional communities of Barcarena / Pa. The objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between the impacts of large companies on the health of the traditional communities of Barcarena, health conceptions and practices of traditional communities and those introduced by the modern state through health services. For that, an exploratory study was carried out, through ethnographic research, anchored to the contribution of the dialectical historical method. Thus, with the opening of the capitalist logic in the region of Barcarena, with the creation of the industrial pole, there was the unbridled exploitation of natural reserves, the appropriation of the suppression of pre-existing social and cultural relations to this logic, the suppression of the violation of rights of the traditional communities and rupture in the traditional identity of the residents, besides promoting, through the industrial activities present in the region and its environmental impacts, consequent situations of risk to the health of the populations through the contact with waters and soil inadequate for use that led to changes in the structure of local communities. Official public health has neither accompanied the quantity nor the complexity of the demand generated by the transformations in the municipality, according to the researches carried out, whereas traditional health practices have persisted and become forms of resistance, as affirmations of traditional identities and also as the coverage of public services are being made available.

Resistência e expropriação de famílias na Volta Grande do Xingu: o caso de duas áreas atingidas pela barragem de Belo Monte, Pará, Brasil

This study made it possible to detail the mobilization against the construction of Belo Monte Hydroelectric Dam, from two distinct locations in Volta Grande do Xingu. Twenty six interviews have been made from May to July, 2012. The resistance against the construction of Belo Monte Dam spans over two decades, and it has gone through phases where there were position changes of the actors involved regarding the project, including the civil organizations. Regarding the peasants, these changes have dramatically influenced the way the conflict began, especially because their perception of the project depends upon the experience lived in the cited areas. In the municipality of São Raimundo Nonato and on the rural road connecting Ramal dos Penas, the mobilization turned possible due to the fear of changes, such as, losing their land and their production, the changes in their singular social relations grown in the area, the control in food production; however, such resistance emerged especially in those forced to leave the area, and the confrontations have been undermined fundamentally by the rapid social and environmental transformations after the beginning of the construction. In the areas named Ressaca, Garimpo do Galo and Ilha da Fazenda, one may notice that apart from the issues concerning the dam construction, there is the pressure as a result of the implementation of the mining project named Mineração Volta Grande. These expropriation fronts seem to increase even more the conflicts due to the changes in the construction area and the imminent displacement that may occur because of the mining project. Therefore, this study provides elements to the debate over other large investment projects that have undergone project or construction in the Amazon, followed by the peacemaking debate, the irreducibility in the construction, and consequently the natural displacement of residents for the progress and the common good, that overshadows lives and broaden social injustices.
