Caminhos e descaminhos de uma rodovia: a Rio-Santos em pauta na sala de aula.

Rio-Santos. Angra dos Reis. Dictatorship. Local History.

The present research investigates the construction of the Rio-Santos highway during the dictatorship period, its memory, and its implications on the population of Angra dos Reis during the time of the construction and currently. Our goal is to problematize, through local history, the socio-spatial impacts brought by the construction of the Rio-Santos highway on the organization of the city and, through this problematization, develop didactic material aligned with this theme to be used in the classroom, enabling students to reflect on their territory. To achieve this objective, our theoretical-methodological framework is based on the analysis of sources and bibliographic support on the period, and the discussion of the contributions of Local History and History Teaching on the subject. Additionally, materials, mainly digital archives, related to this period will be presented and how they can be used for analysis in class. As a product of our research, we have developed material containing activities based on sources about the construction of the Rio-Santos highway in Angra dos Reis. With the aim of reaching a broader audience, this material will be made available as an attachment and digitally. Through the material, we intend to provide students and teachers with activities that generate discussions about the effects of the highway on the lives of Angra's residents, as well as generate debates on issues such as the right to the city, the caiçara and quilombola way of life, propaganda during the dictatorship period, unorganized city occupation, and quality of life.
