Programa de Pós-Graduação em Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Trópico Úmido.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/2706The city of Maraba has experienced an intense process of transformation as a result of urbanization, the strong performance of the State and dynamics of new economic, demographic and spatial that contributed to the current condition of Maraba, as Middle-sized city frontier, in Eastern brasilian Amazônia. This condition is revealed from an urban centrality of this city over the southeast Pará, as functional space that tends to meet demands for trade and services, as well as the condition of space for a decision with respect to government strategies of economic agents and counter-strategies of social movements. Thus, this study aims to examine what is the importance of training to understand the social and special current centrality of Maraba. To this end, we opted for an 'inter theoretical and methodological approach, taking into account the scale intra-urban and interurban, and the dimensions of social reality. The choice of this theoretical and methodological perpectives resulted from the need for developing ideas that take into consideration the movement of contradictions inherent in the production process of the space of Maraba.porAcesso AbertoUrbanizaçãoPlanejamento urbanoMarabá - PAPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::PLANEJAMENTO URBANO E REGIONAL
