Abstract

This article makes a particular link between the concepts of society and environment, in a perspective that it seeks to reach a normative objective: sustainable development. ln this perspective, the case of the municipality of Guaraqueçaba is studied, within a period of ten years. The results show that this area has been suffering direct consequences of the confrontation between society and environment. ln such situation, tourism has become an
alternative for the local community. However the ignorance of such mechanisms to operate in the tourism market, merged with the historical path of the region made it impossible to enhance the convergence of preservation and tourism in a socio-economic matter.
