| dc.description.abstract | In March 2006, Brazilian national government had announced the installation of a huge industrial complex based on oil and gas exploitation, guided by PETROBRAS, in the city of Itaboraí – named COMPERJ. The Pandora’s box was opened. The current work focused on these massive ongoing transformations within the eastern Baía de Guanabara region, which represents a drastic rupture with its historical, territorial and institutional precedents. The local and regional scale reveals a complex and diverse urban fabric, due to simultaneous land concentration/dissolution, urban’s fabric fragmentation and soil’s privatization. Within this erratic framework, the role played by the infrastructure into the urban planning arises pursuing new demands regarding the environmental, spatial, and institutional dimensions. Additionally, the land occupation pattern has also been investigated into the current research. In fact, the physical-territorial fragilities have signaled the deep need of a dialogue between urbanism and environmental engineering. A bachelor thesis and a scientific research1 have conducted an exploration that, as an outcome, has promoted new discussion and debate moments where strong apprehensions have emerged within Maricá’s foggy scenario. For instance, the huge demographic growth on a ten year time lapse2, land speculation, non-infrastructured spaces3, informal settlements and gated communities, low sanitation levels, transportation based essentially on cars etc. | |
