Abstract

The inequalities and differences in access to opportunities influence the process of segregation of cities. In the state of Rio de Janeiro, some regions stand out economically for several factors. This paper aims to understand the relationship between industrial activity in the State of Rio de Janeiro and inequalities, in the territory, related to the segregation process, with emphasis on the Vale do Paraíba Fluminense. For this, the methodology employs different scales of analysis. Initially, it performs an analysis of the predominant GDP of 2002 and 2010; then it makes spatial segregation indexes using data from the 2010 Demographic Census; and, finally, performs the correlation analysis between spatial segregation indexes and the proportion of industries using RAIS data from 2000 and 2010. As a result, it was possible to see in which municipalities the industry generates more wealth in the State of Rio de Janeiro, as well as the municipalities that are more segregated. We also observed that there is evidence of a correlation between the amount of industry in the territory and the segregation of the wealthiest people.
