De área de trabalho à área de lazer: estudos dos impactos causados pelo turismo à comunidade pesqueira de fortaleza do Mocooca-Maracanã-Pa.

Abstract

This work is part of the Project "Anthropology of the Maritime, River and Lake Populations of the Amazon; Study of the relationship between Man and his Environment" - RENAS. It seeks to analyze the changes that occurred in the fishing community of Fortaleza do Mocooca (Ilha de Maiandeua), Municipality of Maracanã-PA, due to the development of tourism, from the 70s and 80s. We study the impacts of this socio-economic activity, which has been changing the reality of the permanent population of this area. This research is expected to contribute to the community in order to preserve its natural environment and culture, as well as to provide subsidies for a planned tourism that takes into consideration the local population and respects the man-environment relationship. The methodology is based on a bibliographic survey, field work, and direct observation. The techniques used are visual registration (photography), open interviews (recorded), and life stories.
