| Resumo: | During the years of 1986-1987, the city of Joao Camara, located in the microregion of Mato
Grande, in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, was destroyed by a series of earthquakes
which changed the lives and daily routines of its population. The population had to adapt to
this new reality in order to live with the earthquakes. These earhquakes brought great
consequences, such as the destruction of interdiction of public and private buildings. They
also affected their dwellings, leaving many without a place to live. The objective of this work
is to analise how the earthquakes of 1986-1987 transformed the city of Joao Camara. In order
to analyse those changes, the following questions are posed: How was the City of Joao
Camara affected by the earthquakes? How did the population perceive the earthquakes of
1986-1987? How did they react to this natural adversity, since their daily lives were drasticaly
affected? Which were their feelings about what had happened? How did they try to explain
the earthquakes? How did the individuals relate to the places affected by the earthquakes?
How did they manage the unstable environment? Which were the ways developped by that
society in order to deal with the changes? This present work is based on the articulation od the
Environmental History and the History of Spaces. The objective is to investigate the
transformations that occurred in the space of the City of Joao Camara during and after the
earthquakes of 1986, observing how the populations reacted to those changes. Through the
concepts of Space and Place of the geographer Yi-Fu Tuan, territory and deterritorialization
of Rogério Haesbaert and Paisage of Tereza Duarte Paes Luchiari,we will demonstrate that
the transformations that took place in Joao Camara came from the earthquakes and the human
relationswith the environment, which helped to intensify the consequences of the disaster. In
order to answer the posed questions, we used the followinf sources: newspapers such as A
Ordem, Diário de Natal, Tribuna do Norte, O Poti e A República published in the decades of
1940, 1950, and 1980; Photographs; Documents produce by geologists and geophysics of
UFRN, Unb, and USP, such as reports on the sysmic activities; Official documents, such as
the Domestic Defense report and other documents produced by the people, such as poems and
oral reports. |
