Abstract

The paper proposes to show a study on the territorial dynamics caused by the arrival of a traveling business marketplace, in the district of Aprazível, in Sobral (CE). Such activity triggered a reorganization process of its territory, both physical with the construction of buildings, houses, roads, sewage systems, etc., and in the way of life of the local population. However, the changes occurred over decades, since the first marketplace, according to reports from the oldest residents of the district, date from the mid-1960s as will be described in the context below, although the most significant changes have occurred with the present-day clothing marketplace. For the development of this work, it is necessary to use procedures to support the data collection, such as conducting a bibliographic and documentary survey, observing through field activities, applying questionnaires, and conducting informal interviews. The flows generated by the marketplace in the district, over the past sixty years, show the dynamics existing among the various actors involved, for example, marketers, buyers, the Association and the residents of the district, given the recurrent transformations of the spatial relations favored in the face of such activity. Thus, the marketplace establishes several changes, which, it seems, will continue over the years, thanks to the contributions it offers for the economic and structural growth of the Aprazível district.
