The thesis investigates The Chão Legal municipal program of agrarian regularization, run by the municipal government of Belém, on sub basins 1 of Estrada Nova. Its objective is found in the verification, analysis, nd interpretation of verifiable social developments during the implementation of the agrarian regularization program.The sociological methodology applied used the various data were collected and analyzed with the following premise: what is at stake on the Chão Legal in Estrada Nova in Belém? My thesis is that the execution and management of projects, sanitation and urbanization are expressions of classist and racist rationality, according to the logic of the market. In this logic, the residents are not seen as a priority of programs, i.e. your presence in the place is not considered a foundation of urban politics. The residents are regularly treated as obstacles to a selective redevelopment, intended for the area. The social and urban redevelopment of these areas means the removal of the original residents, poor and racially completely outnumbered. The popular housing is not contemplated in the sanitation and urbanization process, as something inherent in the project, the solutions adopted are precarious and provisional. The project does not consider as a priority the maintenance of people in their places. Therefore, contrary to the rhetoric produced by the State that the sanitation, urbanization, and adjustment of urban land will improve the lives of residents, what occurs is a war against the poor people. It is known in Belém that "sanitized outskirts is not for the poor people‖. But it is important to ask: who are the poor people who have been historically racialized and made inferior?Are these people given the right to dream of a "cool" place, with ownership and security without flooding? The racism of the ruling elites in relation to the populations of the Belém‘s watersheds associates three elements by assigning them related and overlap meanings: related and directions: social, racial and dwelling place, based on hierarchy of superiority and inferiority. In other words: to be poor, black and live in neighborhoods that make up the basin of Estrada Nova carries derogatory and unbiased meanings, that result in the production of an overlay image of stigma where the sense of humanity to these people is denied. Such a denial legitimizes the barbarism that afflicts these people despised. This process converts The Estrada Nova in a ―vast territory of reserve" to be appropriated by the legal market. To the extent that the areas are consolidated as of interest to the real capital state, there is a strong market pressure on the residents, which may result in the forced or consented expulsion, observing the examples of what has been done in other cities around the country and even in the Belém city in similar projects. Finally, the desire and understanding of the present work is not limited to the academic environment. It resulted in the production of a booklet that, through synthesis and repertories, aims to inform the public about ongoing clashes and the ones to come, providing indications of what is at stake.
