Summary
The Utinga State Park (PEUT) is one of the few green areas with the function of preserving biodiversity remaining in the urbanization process of the Belém space Added to this is the fact that the effectiveness of controlling the use of the park is directly linked to the maintenance of the quality of the supply water, since it houses the so-called “water granary” of the city. The sustainability discourse is socially incorporated by the social actors and, at the same time, challenged in a mutable, contradictory and complex interaction according to the power relations at stake The relevance of this perspective lies in the inclusion within the logic of ecological protection, the question of the uneven dynamics of the costs and benefits of cities associated with the creation of a “conservation territory” that necessarily involves the consolidation of environmental management. The fact is that the restrictions on land use and occupation that were imposed by the presence of a protected area in the middle of the expansion area of Belém, affected the dynamics of spontaneous occupation of the Utinga area
