Abstract

This study aims to identify the main socio-environmental conflicts in the Açu Lagoon State Park, based on the analysis of different social actors involved in the implementation of the park. Therefore, we conducted interviews with researchers, technical park staff, president of the fishermen's association, environmental activists, land owner and mat producer artisan. In conclusion, it is understood that there is some community resistance on the implementation of the park, causing some conflicts to be already installed. According to respondents, these conflicts are mainly: the problem of illegal fishing, plant extraction, foreclosures and poaching.
