The purpose of this dissertation is to understand the influence from the village Santa Fé on the
municipality Marabá on the social reproduction of the farmers families assettled at its
surrounding.The field research was realized at the months June and August of 2010 through
interviews with the farmers families, local storekeepers and public employers. The results
show that the occupation and transformation process which is passing the region of the village
Santa Fé reflect the dynamics from the region Marabá as a frontier region in stabilization. Its
formation and consolidation as nucleus of povoation occurred in middle of regional
transformations which stimulated the migration of a great number of people to the countryside
of the municipality. As the same time in which the village passed to exist on occasion of the
areas occupation, it passed to influence the social reproduction of the family farmers of its
surrounding too, performing functions like the business, leisure places and that one of access
to public services. These characteristics had generated dynamics and simbiotic processes
which constituted the village and the regional family agriculture. We observed that along the
time the village turn into a fundamental social and structural space of the lifestyle of the
family farmers from its surrounding. On this box of changes the families have adopted
various productive and social strategy types to achieve their objectives. These strategies have
been also a structural factor of the relations lived by the families considering different spaces:
the village, the city of Marabá and the assettlement projects. The emergency of new forms of
sociability, of work relations and productive ativitivities has contributed for the remaining of
relations which marked the construction of the local society as a society of interknowing, such
as confidence, reciprocity and clientelism.
