Abstract

This research disserts about the characterization of the industry trajectory in São Paulo city, focusing on the evolution of citys urban structure over the years, and on public policies that might influenced this process, with the objective of giving assistance to urban governance of the citys industrial areas. The geographic frame is the city of São Paulo, which has played fundamental role in the Brazilian process of industrialization and which maintains the position of economic leadership until nowadays. The timing frame started since the first installation of industries in the city, around mid nineteenth century, until 2005, with emphasis between 1985 and 2005 a period of time characterized by the end of descentralization industrial process and during the production restructuring process. To analyze this period of time, we had used RAIS database from Ministry of Labour, and we prepared series of GIS maps containing the industrial trajectory in the São Paulo city using a special geographic unit called distrito. The aim of this research is to evaluate transformations that might have occurred in the number of industrial establishments, in the number of employees, in the prevailing industrial sectors and in the industrial spatial localization in the city of São Paulo, to the years of 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, and 2005. In the conclusions we presents seven important geographic units of the city (distritos) which have been relevant to the citys industrial trajectory from the beginning of 20th century to the first years of 21th century.
