Abstract
Brazil has 588 municipalities in its Border Band, some of which are in regions still lacking in development, such as those located in Arco Norte. Therefore, the present work proposes to carry out a case study of the presence and contribution of a Military Organization of the Brazilian Army in the city of Barcelos-AM, to answer the following questions: how the presence of the 3rd BIS directly contributes to the generation in employment and income in the municipality of Barcelos-AM, in 2018? Does this presence significantly add income to the municipality? Does it generate jobs? Is it an alternative for the young population? These questions guide the objective of understanding the impact of the State's role in a region distant from the great economic centers and geographically isolated from the rest of the country and how state investment promotes development. In this context, the research has as its method the analysis of economic indicators that collaborate with the composition of the HDI in the municipality of Barcelos. The work is based on bibliographic research, primary data and government documents.
