Based on the theoretical framework of the social production of space, the thesis addresses the society-nature relationship in the metropolitan Amazon and its socio-spatial contradictions. The islands of Caratateua, Cotijuba, Paquetá, Combu, and Grande were chosen as empirical references for analysis, as they combine rural, urban, and hybrid characteristics, each with its economic, environmental, and historical particularities. Additionally, they were selected due to the state and market policies directed towards them, as well as the (dis)encounters, struggles, and resistances of the social groups existing within them. The main objective is to analyze the social production of the island space in Belém based on the uses and consumptions of and in nature, as expressed in policies and actions that promote leisure, tourism, and real estate developments. It is argued that these relationships meet specific metropolitan demands, both local and distant, with aspects of capitalist reproduction and domination, which are sometimes more subtle. Insularity, at times, poses itself as resistance to non-local interests and values, while at other times, it aligns with them. From these contradictions and conflicts, insurgent movements of belonging and recognition of differences emerge, suggesting alternative and more creative possibilities, along with contestable stances regarding ongoing hegemonic processes. Methodologically, the following procedures were adopted: a) bibliographic research about theoretical approaches related to socially produced space, social relations of production, and daily life; b) bibliographic research concerning the history and geography of the analyzed empirical realities; c) analysis of primary and secondary data collected from documentary sources; d) systematic observation of the landscape in the field and on virtual messaging platforms involving the analyzed environments and subjects; and e) semi-structured interviews with representatives of public sector associated with district administration and tourism and leisure public policies, with long-time residents holding political and community leadership roles, and with both new and old residents engaged in commercial activities. The results show that, due to the metropolization of Belém since 1960, urban processes and their economic, social, and environmental repercussions advance differentially on the island spaces. Thus, the new ways of conceiving some of them gradually transform the lives of their inhabitants, who become influenced by the presence of exogenous agents and the State, and by different interests regarding leisure and tourism uses, making them prone to new economic aspirations and spatial disputes. There are also those directly affected by urban expansion, giving rise to neighborhoods where residential settlements predominate, and the associated issues lead to struggles for both permanence and dignified access to public services. These struggles coexist with the presence of actions from the State and real estate capital. In others, permanent and occasionally used residences alternate, intertwining and/or competing with inns and second homes intended for tourism purposes. Finally, there are those in which, despite annihilations and invisibilities, traditional riverine daily life persists in the constructions, territorial configuration, and emotional and identity bonds, strongly linked to the rivers and the forest. These differentiations allowed the recognition of an island typology for the municipality of Belém, which was compared with existing planning and management perspectives conceived for the specificities of these spaces.

A Produção do espaço pelo e para o turismo na Área de Proteção Ambiental da Ilha do Combu (Belém- Pará)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-06-25) RODRIGUES, Ágila Flaviana Alves Chaves; TRINDADE JÚNIOR, Saint-Clair Cordeiro da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1762041788112837
Based on the theories of the social production of the space of Henri Lefêbvre and of the space as social instance of Milton Santos, this work establishes reflections about the production of the tourist space in Belém, capital of the Pará state, in particular on the Environmental Protection Area of Combu Island (APA Combu), located in the southern part of the city. Environment endowed with biological and cultural diversity important for the quality of life and well-being of the groups that inhabit it, has been undergoing long and slim bureaucratic processes in order to make sustainability of the use of natural resources difficult. The main objective is to analyze the perceptions, tensions and conflicts related to the practice of tourism by the different social actors that use this fraction of space (management institution, businessmen, organized civil society, local and external visitors, old and new residents), considering the urban and regional diversity in which APA is inserted. To carry out the study, the following methodological procedures were used: a) theoretical-conceptual bibliographical review of relevant themes, theories, concepts and notions; b) a bibliographical review of a historical-geographical character and a survey of secondary data on the southern part of the island and the insular region of Belém, as well as on the public policies pertinent to the environmental and tourism; c) Photographic survey of the Combu island. and surroundings with systematic observation in the field about the interaction between city-river-várzea-forest; d) conducting individual interviews recorded with semi-structured questions with technicians, planners and representatives of the public institution, linked to the policies of planning and environmental and tourism management of the Combu island; e) analysis and systematization of the data collected in relation to the theoretical framework previously defined and revised. The results showed us that the way of conceiving space has been transforming the lives of the residents of Combu, influenced by the presence of external agents, who have different interests regarding the use of space for leisure and tourism purposes. The presence of the new actors has repercussions mainly on promotional actions and interventions carried out by the State, making the island a place conducive to the search for new economic aspirations, the construction of commercial establishments and leisure activities, inspired by the growth of tourism in the place, happens to occupy one of the center of space disputes. In this way, it is understood that local-based tourism, which goes beyond the representation of sustainable discourse, should be strengthened, so that local populations maintain control over the processes imposed on them, prevailing the right to difference and collectivity, so present in the dimension of riverine experiences.
