Resumo: This paper addresses the fraught relationships among commodity trade, urban economic development and the environment in the world’s largest rainforest reserve, in a historical narrative fashion. The conceptual framework in which we position this narrative is provided by Hesse (2010), in the “site” and “situation” dimensions of the interaction between places or locales on the one hand, and material flows or global value chains on the other. It is argued that the assemblage of both site and situation is what shapes the wealth of cities. The case study of Manaus and Belém shows how the rapid urbanization of the Amazon rainforest is accompanied by the growth of shipping as “new” commodities are being extracted from the jungle interior.

A estrutura conceitual na qual posicionamos esta narrativa é fornecida por Hesse (2010) nas dimensões de “local” e “situação” da interação entre locais ou localidades, por um lado, e o fluxo de materiais ou cadeias globais de valor por outro. Argumenta-se que a assemblagedo local e da situação, que forma as riquezas das cidades. O estudo de caso de Manaus e Belém mostra como a rápida urbanização da Amazônia é acompanhada pelo crescimento do transporte conforme “novas” mercadorias estão sendo extraídos no interior da selva.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-12-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/17488Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 15 No. 30 (2013): mobilidade urbana nas metrópoles contemporâneas; 389-410Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 15 Núm. 30 (2013): mobilidade urbana nas metrópoles contemporâneas; 389-410Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 15 No. 30 (2013): mobilidade urbana nas metrópoles contemporâneas; 389-410Cadernos Metrópole; v. 15 n. 30 (2013): mobilidade urbana nas metrópoles contemporâneas; 389-4102236-99961517-2422reponame:Cadernos Metrópole (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporenghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/17488/13006https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/17488/13007Jacobs, WouterPegler, LeeReis, ManoelPereira, Henriqueinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-05-15T13:58:48Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/17488Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/metropolePRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadernosmetropole@outlook.com||cadernosmetropole@outlook.com2236-99961517-2422opendoar:2024-05-15T13:58:48Cadernos Metrópole (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
