The North Fluminense Region has undergone significant transformation in recent decades. Currently, the oil-producing region is also host of the biggest portindustry enterprise in Latin America: the Industrial Complex of Açu Superport, still under construction, and located in the southern portion of the city of São João da Barra, who has been suffering with the transformation of their rural are in industrial expansion area, which has generated environmental conflicts such as expropriation of small producers, disruption of family agriculture, ecosystem impacts on the sandbank and about fishing. Another venture observed here and also designed as industrial port is the Port Complex of Suape, located 40 km from Recife, Pernambuco. Conceived in order to not only meet the demand of the region, but being able to generate new demands, Suape has been consolidated as a key economic development of the state. In this sense, the present work aims to make a comparative analysis between the (potential and existing) effects of the construction of the Port of Açu and the changes occurring in the catchment area of the Port of Suape, as the expropriation of traditional populations, the exodus rural, the population growth and social tension related to the control of natural resources.Downloads
