A implantação da usina de Itaipu foi necessária para cobrir o déficit de produção de energia no país. Porém a implantação e a operação da usina causam significativos impactos de natureza socioambiental. Na década de 70, o município de Foz do Iguaçu não estava preparado para receber a massa trabalhadora para a construção da usina. Sem infraestrutura e planejamento urbano, Foz do Iguaçu foi extremamente impactada com o elevado crescimento demográfico e alto índice de urbanização. Neste contexto, este trabalho tem como objetivos realizar levantamento histórico da implantação da usina hidrelétrica de Itaipu, avaliar a formação da cidade com base na dinâmica populacional e avaliar a expansão da malha urbana, considerando o período de 1960 a 2007. Durante o período de 1960 a 2007, o município de Foz do Iguaçu passou por grandes transformações tais como: redução da área territorial em 14,91 %, crescimento populacional na ordem de 920,12 % e crescimento da malha urbana 10.520,00 %. Por outro lado o município recebeu da Itaipu compensações financeiras na ordem de US$ 190,54 milhões Em face dos atuais problemas que o município vem enfrentando na área social, como favelização crescente, elevados índices de violência e déficit de moradia e alto índice de desemprego. Impactos socioambientais podem ser minimizados se aplicado ferramentas adequadas de gestão publica nos municípios situados na área do entorno do reservatório / To reach the energy demands of a developing country, an alternative is to implant several large production hydroelectric plants for the production of clean and renewable energy, such as Itaipu hydroelectric plant. The construction of this plant caused significant environmental and social impacts in the Western region of Paraná State, mainly in the Foz do Iguazu County. In the 1970’s, the city was not prepared to receive the large numbers of workers for the plant’s construction, which arrive in Foz do Iguazu from different regions of Brazil. Without infrastructure and urban planning, the town of Foz do Iguazu was highly impacted due to the elevated population growth and the high rate of urbanization. Therefore, this thesis has as main goals to undertake a historical survey of implementation of the Itaipu hydroelectric plant, to analyze the population growth and the expansion of the urban area of the Foz do Iguazu town considering the period between 1960 and 2007. During this period, Foz do Iguazu County has suffered several changes such as: reduction of its surface area of 14,91%, population growth of 920,12% and growth of urban area of 10.520,00 %. On the other hand, the county has received financial compensation in the order of US$ 263 million. Despite receiving these funds, the county has been facing problems in the social area, such as growing slums, high levels of violence, large housing deficit and high unemployment rate. Social impacts can be minimized if applied appropriate tools for managing public administration in the counties situated around the reservoir
