doi: 10.12957/geouerj.2017.24648 The objective of this article is to raise some reflections on collective memory to understand the concept of identity and, subsequently, that of territorial identity in relation to traditional population living places, through a case study carried out at the Ilhabela County, São Paulo State, Brazil, in the Curral neighborhood/beach, using interviews and memory analysis in relation to the place. Through observation, interview analysis and theoretical discussions, it is understood that, by constructing the individual memory of the common past, collective memory is essential for territorial identity and can allow the passage from a resistance identity to a project identity, based on the cultural wealth idea brought by socio-diversity.
