Abstract

From the 1970s, a new demographic phenomenon has been identified
in the United States, which consists of migratory displacements
with significant exits from large urban centers. Depending on its characteristics,
this phenomenon has been described as “Population turnaround”,
characterized by an emigration process that occurs in rural
areas; or, as “Counterurbanisation”, when emigration occurs to less
dense areas in the same city. In the context of this phenomenon, we are
currently seeing what we are calling “Coastalisation”, which consists of the
emigration of urban centers to coastal areas; natural environments, which
have been demanded as capable of providing better living conditions, with
traces of dissociation and rupture with an intense urban environment, in
an attempt to “synergistic redesign” in which we seek to associate the nature
of the sea coast with comfort and infrastructure found in urbanized
environments. Identify this phenomenon in the coastal town “Barra dos
Coqueiros”, which was developed in the present analysis.
Keywords: Population turnaround. Counterurbanisation. Costeirização.
