The development policies carried out in the Amazon in the last decades have interfered in the biodiversity, in the way of life of the populations and in the popular cultures in health. Findings indicate that this knowledge is still present nowadays, but it is necessary to know how it is maintained before the economic model excluding and averse to cultural care. The aim of the study is to maintain popular medicine through resistance, practical transformations and social tensions. In this sense the design of the study was guided by the method of qualitative explanatory research by case study, through problematic issues involving popular medicine, public policies and capital interventions in traditional health spaces and trades. The study site was the city of Oriximiná, located in the State of Pará, Brazil. The methodology was based on a multiple case study, executed through semi-structured interviews, participant observation and anthropologically based photographic record. Municipal managers, health managers, health technicians, legal representatives, managers of public and private organizations, professionals in the folk medicine profession, historians and traditional leaders participated in the study. As a geographic area of coverage, surveys were carried out in the entire urban area, community of Boa Vista and surroundings, region of low Trombetas, CASAI and Polo Indígena de Oriximiná and Basic Health Units of the urban region. Considering these facts, the orientation of the study was interdisciplinary, encompassing the theoretical foundations underlying the method of interpretation and analysis by dialectical historical materialism, so the choice of basic theories reveals the antagonism of class struggles, cultural diversity and the implications for culture within the critical analysis of development. After evaluating the data, the content was organized into thematic categories and the analyzes pointed out that popular medicine presents new arrangements in response to the demands of regional development, resulting from development policies in the Amazon, reorganization of health systems after sanitary reform, new public policies which seek to represent the cultural diversities and infrastructure deficits of health services in rural communities, as well as the interferences of the mining enterprise.

Metrópole e região na Amazônia: trajetórias do planejamento e da gestão metropolitana em Belém, Manaus e São Luís
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-02-02) SANTOS, Tiago Veloso dos; TRINDADE JÚNIOR, Saint-Clair Cordeiro da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1762041788112837
This proposal aims to analyze the relationship between metropolis and region in the Brazilian Amazon. The classical discussion that states the cities and the region dimensions is recomposed due to the new social-spatial dynamics of the metropolization of space, demanding a new look on the relationship established between them. Such a process, however, is not characterized by revealing a possible particularity at the macro-regional level. The configuration of an economical borderline that expands in an unbalanced and differentiated spread in the Amazon inland is also responsible for the formation of distinct sub-regions. The metropolis that have appeared there are product, condition and way to this movement of differentiation, what may be exemplified by the agglomerations of Belém, Manaus and São Luís. Considering, amongst other elements, the relationship that they establish with the region, the urban structure and their type of institutionalization, it is aimed to show the importance and meaning of such metropolitan formations in face of differentiated processes of production of the space in the region. And, although they are product, condition and way of production and reproduction of relations inside a specific regional context in the Amazon, there are not, at the standards of the institutional orders to the metropolis, policies of planning and management that may configure institutional arrangements, so that those particularities may become an articulation component of the urban development in those metropolitan centers. This statement may be verified through the analysis of the characteristics of the policies of planning and management of those spaces, what, most of the times, reproduces the metropolitan institutional arrangements performed in other regions of the country, being the institutionalization of metropolitan regions the most prominent example of this, in a very similar way to the other agglomerations that present more distance than proximity as for the Amazon particularities. Such a characteristic results in the establishment of instruments to the planning and management with questionable degrees and levels of efficiency and efficacy, focusing its standards of implementation.
