The research entitled Tradition and Recent Changes in the Territory of Amélia Rodrigues - Bahia was carried out with the objective of analyzing what are the factors that are present in the changes that take place in this municipality, where the traditions of the historical Recôncavo Açucareiro are present. These productions have repercussions on the municipal demographic dynamics, initially concentrated in the rural areas of the districts that, in the 1960s, form the municipality of Amélia Rodrigues. Its economic base is agricultural, more specifically sugar and its mainly urban population. As a result, a population that demands work, incipient in the municipality. The research reveals that the year 2015 represents for this community the end of the predominance of sugar cane with the paralysis of the activities of the sugar and ethanol company Aliança, of the group União Açucareira Limitada (UNIAL), its largest employer that leaves by legacy, sugar structures and a Low school education and professional qualification that needs to migrate to other municipalities in search of work. These factors are associated with the presence of the BR-324 highway, which cuts the headquarters district and increases the possibilities of displacement of this population, geographically approaching the urban centers of Salvador and especially Feira de Santana, with repercussions on the growth of the economy local. At the same time, the highway reveals itself as an element that contributes to a possible integration into the economy of Feira de Santana, as we can see the attraction of some small and medium-sized industries installed in the municipality in the period from 2000-2016, along the highway And other activities in the services segment in the headquarters district, mainly in the city center.Acesso AbertoTradições açucareirasMudançasTerritórioAmélia Rodrigues - BahiaSugar TraditionsTerritoryTradição e mudanças recentes no território de Amélia RodriguesDissertaçãoPlanejamento Urbano e Regional/Demografia
