MOSER, Gisele. Transformations of the coastal urban space: the patrimonialization of the environment in the city of Florianópolis/Santa Catarina - Brazil. GOT [online]. 2015, n.8, pp.133-144. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2015.8.007.

In this paper we discuss the city of Florianópolis in aspects of development of mariculture, projecting it as a large national producer of oysters and shellfish, and the beach, which once served to receive the city evictions and was raised to become a leisure area and a site for summer vacations. These elements - sea and beach - experienced new settings, from the appropriation and reinterpretation of old uses of natural resources, in a way that they changed the social and environmental perspective. Environmental patrimonialization is part of a touristic perspective as a process that appears inseparable from the new strategies of appropriation of images of the city and city marketing, turining the city into an image to be consumed with an idealized model of standardized urban spaces.

Keywords : city; urban history; environment; patrimonialization; Florianópolis.
