RESUMO

This thesis is about the landscape formation and has as main object the city of São Luiz do Paraitinga in the region of Alto Paraíba, Estate of São Paulo. The analysis of a great volume of historical data elucidated a detailed description of the region settlement considering the social and political contexts involved in this occupation initiatives. The settlement of São Luiz do Paraitinga was not spontaneous but a result of local interests in agreement with a politics for population reordering which was been applied in the Captaincy of São Paulo from 1765. This thesis details this settlement steps, showing how in a period of a decade the landscape started to hold a structure unmodified until the present. From beyond, the analysis of the demographic and economic evolution shown the influence of these social aspects on the landscape evolution. In this thesis, the concept of landscape has two directions. First, it is understood on its own concrete reality, always as an unfinished result of interactions between society and the space. Second, it deals with a particular conception about the space. In this native landscape the land tenure has prominence role creating the social references for the neighborhood relations. Affirming that the land tenure is essential to understand the landscape, this thesis diverge from the classics studies about rural sociology which consider the rural village as the most significant sociological entity.
