As contradições do EIA-RIMA ante os impactos ambientais da indústria de alumínio na Amazônia: o caso Hydro Alunorte em Barcarena-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-05-18) BEZERRA, Danilo Victor da Silva; LOPES, Luis Otávio do Canto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1013147545099173; FARIAS, André Luís Assunção de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5310171409459863
The development has long been presented as an essential process for life in society. In Brazil, to accelerate this process, many projects for the implantation of large industrial projects were created, with emphasis on mining and metallurgical projects aimed at the Amazon region. It turns out that the installation and operation of these large projects cause environmental impacts that mainly affect marginalized local communities. To prevent and mitigate such environmental damage, there are legal and administrative instruments created by law, such as the EIA-RIMA. In this context, there is the situation of the Hydro Alunorte industrial complex in Barcarena City in the State of Pará. Based on documentary and bibliographic research, the study aims to demonstrate the contradictions of the EIA / RIMA as a proposed instrument to deal properly with the impacts of these large enterprises industrial operation. From the final discussions, it is possible to verify the insufficiency of the instrument and its historical use as a document that validates environmental inequalities and injustices. At the end, it presents a product for those most fragile by the local industrial dynamics.

Grandes objetos na Amazônia: das velhas lógicas hegemônicas às novas centralidades insurgentes, os impactos da Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte às escalas da vida
(Universidade Estadual Paulista, 2017-08-25) PADINHA, Marcel Ribeiro; WHITACKER, Arthur Magon; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9260024751979241
This thesis analyzed socio-spatial impacts on the life scales of people affected by a "big project", the Belo Monte HPP, built on the Xingu River, Brazilian Amazon. These "great objects" promote the re - de - structuring of the territories where they are implanted, causing a strong impact on the existing and historically constituted spatiality of river dwellers, peasants, natives, as well as residents of the outskirts of the city of Altamira - Pará - Amazônia. We then analyze the "spoiling" force of these large enterprises on "subalternized" populations, based on a scalar-based theoretical proposition, which involves considering space as a "polymorph". Space-spatiality, technique and scale were used as methodological tools for the realization of the reading of our empirical reality. The life-scale impacts of "deterritorialized" people on both mobility and immobility are felt in view of the spatial condition of belonging, appropriation and identification that different subjects carry out in their territories and places. Nonetheless, as a response to this spillover process, a series of strategies of struggle and resistance are verified in relation to "developmentalist" projects. Despite the Brazilian government's hand in hand with iron hands, it was a strong opposition to the Belo Monte HPP project. Social Movements of different scales of action, from different places on the planet, joined the impacted ones of Altamira and region, constituting, therefore, a great field of confrontation against the "biopolitical" conception applied by the Brazilian government and the national and international capital. This confrontation was carried out by the rural and urban poor and by the traditional populations, under the leadership of the social movements ("Xingu Movement Vivo Para Semper", "Women's Movement") of Altamira and region, together with the important work of the Public Ministry Federal, Public Defender of the State of Pará and the work of NGOs (as a Socio-Environmental Institute), fought and struggled to ensure that the territoriality and place of the socio-residents affected by the set of works and actions that gave rise to Belo Monte HPP somehow, be compensated. An intense and enduring social struggle has caught on in the Xingu region so that the (re) structuring effects of this "big project" can be (somehow) offset. This struggle of the hegemonized / subalternized subjects, which was called "insurgent centralities", was established between subjects of politically and economically (asymmetric) and unequal economic power, the Brazilian State and Capital being on one side and, on the other spatially affected and its protection network, has generated deep conflicts of a spatial nature. Despite the important achievements of social movements and those affected, the strength of the "state of exception" used to implant Belo Monte Power Plant by the Brazilian Government, in the midst of a democratic period, has promoted impacts on the scale of people's lives that are immeasurable and irreparable. Implicating the need to propose and invest in other and new forms (sources) of energy generation in Brazil and the Amazon as a way to overcome this scenario of spoliation, which is a product of the "spatial adjustment" of capitalism.

Grandes projetos e a relação com os recursos naturais na fronteira amazônica: os acordos de pesca como instrumentos moderadores de conflitos em Limoeiro do Ajuru
(Instituto Histórico e Geográfico do Pará, 2021-06) RODRIGUES, Suzi Carolina Moraes; CARVALHO, André Cutrim; SILVA, Fernanda Kelly Valente da
Since the 1960s, the Brazilian Amazon has suffered from several territorial transformations, an immediate result of the process of institutional integration and federalization by the military regime. The impacts caused by this development model, based on large enterprises, fell upon the social environment, directly affecting local populations and traditional peoples, as well as on the environment, by causing a series of irretrievable damage to the region's natural resources. The implementation and operation of these large projects on the frontier of the Brazilian Amazon, however, began to present a territorial dynamic marked by intense conflicts, particularly in the state of Pará. Fishing resources make up a considerable part of natural resources, which were considerably impaired by the large mining and hydroelectric projects, causing pollution of the water bodies, the silting of rivers and a decrease in fishing stocks, considered the main food-economic source of these traditional communities. It is in this perspective that the fisheries agreements emerged, acting as empowering instruments for the fishing communities and conflict moderators in the fishing territories. The fundamental objective of this article, therefore, is to understand how fisheries agreements may act in moderating conflicts over fishing resources, resulting from the implementation of large enterprises, seeking to assess the repercussions of this in the municipality of Limoeiro do Ajuru in the state of Pará. The main conclusion is that the fisheries agreements are capable of acting in the governance of the territory by strengthening a series of actions within the scope of sustainable management of fishing resources and local development in its social, economic and environmental aspects.

Grandes projetos urbanos e mobilidade na Amazônia: danos socioambientais do BRT (Bus Rapid Transport) da Augusto Montenegro e a repercussão da política pública de mobilidade urbana, Belém/PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-01-18) BORRALHO, Jéssica Anire Abdoral; VASCONCELLOS SOBRINHO, Mário; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7843288526039148; FARIAS, André Luís Assunção de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5310171409459863
The study addresses the socio-environmental damages of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) work of Augusto Montenegro, Belém-PA, capable of affecting the economic, social and environmental development of the metropolis Belém. The research aims to expose a new look at socio-environmental damage, expand the debate on the impacts of large urban mobility projects and contribute to academia, public management and society. Given the above, the general objective of the research is to understand what are the socio-environmental damages of the Augusto Montenegro BRT and how they relate to the issue of urban mobility in the metropolis of Belém. The study involves an approach to political ecology under the eyes of Little, Muniz and Leff, and from this focus, the understanding of the concepts of socio-environmental damage in large urban projects and the importance of sustainability in these undertakings. To make the research viable, the methodological procedures were based on bibliographical and documental survey, direct observation technique for data collection and application of a semi- structured interview model applied to public authorities, group representatives and BRT users. From the results obtained, it was noticed that urban mobility in the RMB is precarious and that the BRT does not serve the large mass of public transport users. And finally, it was concluded that the BRT was not an urban mobility solution, as intended, for the city of Belém and its socio-environmental damages affected and still affect the population and the environment.

Impactos socioambientais de grandes projetos e organizações comunitárias na Amazônia: o caso do porto da Cargill na Ilha do Capim, Abaetetuba-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-05-25) FERREIRA, Gessivaldo de Jesus da Silva; LOPES, Luis Otávio do Canto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1013147545099173; FARIAS, André Luís Assunção de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5310171409459863
This study discusses the increase in socio-environmental conflicts and social injustices that affect the way of life of riverside populations, artisanal fishermen, rural farmers and others, considered vulnerable minorities due to the implementation of large projects in the Amazon, more precisely the possible implementation of the port terminal of private use TUP of Abaetetuba of the North American company Cargill in Urubuéua- Abaetetuba. This is an analysis of the indirect impacts, since the port has not yet been implemented. The general objective is to understand how the latent socio-environmental impacts of implementing the Cargill port relate to the social organizations of the Ilha do Capim community. Documentary, bibliographic research, semi-structured interviews and direct observation were carried out. The results show that the socio-environmental impacts caused by the process of installing the Port of Cargill brings harm to residents, harming traditional activities, such as fishing, directly interfering in the daily life of the community, in turn generating a dialectical process with the creation of new processes and organizational spaces and political resistance.
