Sumario:The reflections of this study are in line with the theme: the relationship city-river in the Amazon developed through of a case study, the process of modernization of Maraba’s waterfront. The objective is to analyse the social production of space, the conflicts of territoriality and the resistances to the recente regional dynamics of capitalist modernization of the Amazon and Maraba, taking into account local specificities of the economic, functional, and symbolic-cultural relationship/interaction among different agents/groups with the Tocantins and Itacaiunas rivers. This article shows that was found a residual permanence of the riverine way of life in waterfront of Maraba, mainly through of the spaces of riverine identity and riverine living, in spite of the modernization processes executed and planned (construction of the boardwalk, retaining pier, bridges, roads, ports, hydroelectric etc.) for this city.
