(Sobre)vivências ribeirinhas na orla fluvial de Marabá-Pará: agentes, processos e espacialidades urbanas

Abstract

This work is an approach of the cityriver relationship in the Amazon through a case study, the riverside of Marabá city (Southeast of Pará). The main objective is to analyze the importance of riverine living spaces in that city and their relationship to urban policies materialized at the local level. Through bibliographic, documental and field search (record life histories, semi-structured interviews and systematic observation), it was possible to find that riverine living spaces within Marabá city coexist with the new trends of riverside appropriation. This reality is often neglected by the action and intervention of public power which turn to the ordering of this space that have a strong relationship of the citizens with the water element.
