Abstract

The aim of the present article is to present the forms of occupation and use of the coastal area of
Paraná, bringing the fundamental descriptive elements, but also trying to research some conditional
and explicative factors, as well as noticing the present tendencies. The main current forms of coastal land use in Paraná are related to harbors, fishing, tourism and the conservation of the present ecosystems
and their biodiversity. In order to know its origin and comprehend its current form, it’s presented the
historic of the region and shown data which characterize and give dimension the four coastal land uses
just mentioned above. From this information, the geomorphologic conditionals of these uses are
analyzed, as well as their consequences, in terms of conflicts and tendencies. Finally, there is presented
basic data of the populational dynamic, understood as a reflex or expression of the economic dynamic
which controls the occupation of the space, and the appropriation and use of the resources. This way,
this work tries to understand the dialectic between the natural conditions and the historical processes
which determine the configuration of the social space.
