Acionando territórios: a mobilidade na região metropolitana de Goiânia e em Aparecida de Goiânia

Abstract

This article focus on the mobility in Goiana Metropoli-tan Area from the point of view of the territory category. We understand that, when moving in intra-metropolitan space, individuals activate territories with diverse con-tents and functionalities, expressing not only a hierarchy betwen places but also among individuals themselves. To support our thesis, we analyse both regionalized data on commuting and the profile of individuals who com-mute from Aparecida de Goiânia, Goiânia’s most inte-grated neighboring town. We will be able to show that such an integration occurs in a quite irregular way, thus producing, in that town, an irregular territorial organiza-tion.
