SUMMARY:

This research aims to analyze the process of urban formation in the city of Anori and
understand how the phenomenon of globalization impacts its urbanity. In addition, it seeks to
examine the constitution of the local economy, the products and services produced and
offered in the city. In Amazonas, the discussion about urban centers and those with the
greatest economic expression is broad, whether due to their political centrality, high
agricultural productivity or cultural relevance. However, few studies address the small
Amazonian cities that developed in the shadow of these consolidated urban areas or that, due
to their location and economic condition, remain invisible. Such cities, however, are part of
the state urban network, serving as spaces where capitalism reproduces itself in an exclusive
and selective way. Focusing on the city of Anori, this paper investigates how globalization
manifests itself in Amazonian spaces and its influences on that municipality. Based on the
analysis of the process of urban formation in the city of Anori, its urban profile is discussed,
tracing the milestones that defined its territorial configuration and insertion in the globalized
world. Furthermore, the aim is to understand its economic structure. Its economic connections
with neighboring municipalities and states were also analyzed, as well as the city's urban
organization. Methodologically, the research used qualitative approaches, including the
application of electronic forms open to the general population and interviews with merchants
and high school students from a full-time school in the city. The results obtained a detailed
description of the formation process of Anori, divided into two periods: from 1956 to 2010,
characterizing it as a riverside city with strong traces of Amazonian culture; and from 2010 to
the present, a period marked by the introduction of technology from the modern world.
