| Resumo: | This paper is about the relationship between protected areas in the Amazon, highways and tourism. This is a case study, in the interfluve of the Purus and Madeira River basins, in the south of the state of Amazonas, specifically in the Igapó Açu Sustainable Development Reserve. This Reserve is crossed by the BR 319 road. Through bibliographical and documental review, and field work, it was made an analysis of the potential, fragilities, threats and opportunities of territorial development based on tourism. It is concluded that the protected area can be an important factor for territorial development, based on the improvement of social conditions and protection of nature, if the logic of tourism development is subordinated to the local community. |
