This research aims to understand the urban economy of a riverside city in the Amazon, in light of the theory of spatial circuits of the urban economy - the upper and lower circuit, proposed by Milton Santos in 1970. The locus of this research is the city of Porto de Moz/PA, located in the Lower Xingu (mesoregion of the Lower Amazon), at the confluence of the Xingu River and the Amazon River. The focus of the research analysis is to understand, through the theory of circuits, the urban economy of a riverside city, considering that the small riverside cities of the Amazon present peculiarities regarding their formation, the relationship with the river, and traditional ways of life. Thus, the dynamics and elements of these cities differ from other regions, as many emerged during colonization in the Amazon and through developmental projects in the region. In this sense, the riverside cities of the Amazon present a lower and traditional economy, it is hypothesized that the city of Porto de Moz is based on a lower economy that contributes directly and indirectly to the local economy. Through the realization of field research through (photographic/aerial records, application of forms with commercial agents, in addition to cartographic mapping), it was found that the city of Porto de Moz presents more elements and characteristics of the lower circuit and the marginal upper circuit, since the city aggregates different economic agents, such as fishermen, street vendors, hawkers, etc., these local agents contribute significantly to the local and regional economy of the city, as it establishes economic relations with the other municipalities in the region around it, and also, has economic relations with the RESEX, which is part of the territory.

This thesis on marketing in the family farming fair circuit of Marabá, in the southeast of Pará. The objective was to analyze the contribution of the role of fairs to establishing material living conditions for rural families of farmers and strengthening peasant activity in this part of the Amazon territory. The research sought to identify and learn about the two fairs studied and how the development of the lower food marketing circuit works, seeking to understand the social and economic characteristics developed by family farmers. In this aspect, the settlement responsible for the majority of food production that is sold at the city's main fairs was studied, as well as its importance in the flow of food. As a methodological aspect, the starting point is part of a broad bibliographical and documentary research on the struggles of rural workers for land in the 1970s, the year in which the city's main fairs were created. The field research offered necessary tools that made it possible to collect information through semi-structured interviews, where families of farmers, market traders and consumers at the fairs were interviewed. As a result, it is possible to point out that the forms of commercialization at fairs contribute to maintaining the material living conditions of family farmers, strengthening the struggles of rural workers and protecting the environment with family agricultural production, and with commercialization, the gains Monetary funds return to city commerce when purchasing building materials, household appliances, accessories, among others, in stores. It is observed that production in the Alegria Settlement contributes beneficially to the maintenance of ecosystems and biodiversity, and that there, much of the food produced is used to sell the main fairs in the city of Marabá.
