The methodological procedures adopted in the research consist of bibliographical and documental reviews, in addition to the use of statistic data, especially the ones published by the Brazilian Institute for Geography and Statistics (translation for Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística - IBGE), and by the Paranaense Institute for Economic and Social Development (translation for Instituto Paranaense de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social - IPARDES).
