Resumen Espectáculo
-
The region known as the the Amazon estuary dominates the production and distribution of the açaí berry, a fruit that has gained popularity in various diets worldwide. Ethnographically following the açaí production chain in this region, the dissertation aims to reconstruct the process of commodification of the fruit, specifically regarding the labor and production relationships typical of the traditional riverside communities of the Amazon estuary when used for the purpose of economic development. The research interlocutors of this dissertation are the riverside dwellers who produce and distribute açaí in this region, specifically residents of Capim Island in the municipality of Abaetetuba, Pará. As the implications of the expansion of the açaí market become apparent for the numerous stakeholders involved along this chain, insights are gained into the contentious process of expanding the commercial networks of Amazonian products. This discussion raises the question about relationships beyond the market and highlights the economic diversity of the region and the conflicting front of market expansion. Systems of reproduction, care, and knowledge that characterize the economic diversity of the Amazon, especially concerning riverside communities, are co-opted by these expansion dynamics. Thus, it is observed that the açaí chain operates through the ecology of riverside practices, social relations of care among people and their environment that allow them to live well in their territories. The market network appropriates the autonomy of the ecology of practices that ensures the flow of resources to the market and undermines the sovereignty that riverside dwellers have over their territories and ways of life. Therefore, within this complex process of açaí commodification, challenges are posed regarding community relationships, individuals, resources, and income generation among riverside communities and paradigms of economic development in the region.

This ethnographic dissertation analyzes the social organization of the Apurinã people led by the exogamous moieties, Meetymanety and Xiwapurynyry, whose objective is to value and strengthen Apurinã knowledge and culture, located in the Apurinã TI Kamikuã territory, and its inhabitants. The analysis is built on narratives, testimonies, interviews and dialogues with the Apurinã people's teachers and the kiiumanhe (old trocos, sages and masters of knowledge), to which anthropological work is added and always connected with these two halves, such the social, political, economic functions and the command of the people. In this way, I also discuss the Kyynyry ritual of the Apurinã people and its symbology, values and cultural aspects. I also try to highlight the contradictions between two forms of knowledge and thought, the indigenous and the non-indigenous, in order to situate humanity in relation to the environment in which the Apurinã people live, describing and analyzing their behaviors and relationships.

This dissertation is the result of ethnographic research conducted at the 2a Vara da Infância e Juventude do Distrito Federal, aiming to analyze the production of discourses that underpin precautionary decisions and that culminated in provisional internment decrees for adolescents between the years 2018 and 2022. From an anthropological perspective, the study aimed to unveil how categories of truth and danger are invoked to substantiate judges' discourses and legitimize their practices, in order to understand the decision-making process for selecting, categorizing, and determining which adolescents should be deprived of liberty. In this sense, it was demonstrated that when there is no discourse of truth, what assumes the role of legitimizing the state's power to punish is the discourse of danger.

The present work is an ethnography carried out in a terreiro in Umbanda in Brasilia DF. Interested in understanding the relational dynamics in a space afro-religious, made up mostly of white people, I sought through participant observation and interviews, to investigate whether there was space the reproduction of the various forms of racism that can be observed in Brazilian society. Among the discomforts of being inserted in a space with a majority white and having to interact with the Terreiro entities, I followed a path in the attempt to carry out an ethnography that was not separated from everything that was going through me as a “black researcher”. Starting from that place, I realized that the racial element was already very present in the narratives that were constructed about the history of Umbanda. That Terreiro itself was intensely crossed by this story and that, just as in the institution of Umbanda there were many racial tensions, these were also present in the Terreiro, according to a dynamic of spatiality, “inside”, “outside”, which established a prohibition on the discussion of the agenda racial.

The dissertation presented here stems from an ethnographic study of the Clube do Violeiro Caipira, a non-profit organization that, in 2023, marked three decades of continuous growth and expansion in its activities. This work delves into the main strategies behind its remarkable success. Across four chapters, various facets of the organization's existence are scrutinized. Chapter 1, titled "The Solemn Session – 30 Years of Clube do Violeiro Caipira," provides both a descriptive account and analytical insights into a modern-day ritual. This serves as a narrative device to set the stage for subsequent chapters, introducing key themes and central characters. Chapter 2, "Identity and Collective – Myths and Rites; Meetings and Affections," offers a historical and symbolic contextualization of the entity's existence. It underscores elements linking it to a perceived "tradition," thereby reinforcing the authenticity of its endeavors. This chapter features narratives recounting the experiences of members, detailing pivotal moments such as their induction into the collective and the formation of meaningful connections. Chapter 3, "Economy in 3 Acts: Practices, Discourses, and Symbolisms," delves into reflections on the diverse exchange mechanisms employed both internally and externally by CLUVIC and its associates. Furthermore, it examines processes wherein language and market-driven economic practices become internalized and normalized. Finally, Chapter 4, "Between Institutionality and Realpolitik – Strategies and Agencies," explores the nuanced relationships forged between CLUVIC, governmental bodies, and other stakeholders, particularly in the context of accessing public cultural policies. It sheds light on the inherent ambiguities of such mechanisms, oscillating between democratic incentives and neoliberal punitivisms. In sum, this dissertation critically engages with the interplay between tradition and modernity within the Clube do Violeiro Caipira, unraveling the intricate strategies that have underpinned its enduring success amidst contemporary socio-political landscapes

The narratives around the fashion industry have been so far centered mostly around the Global North experieces. Taking into consideration the richness of production from cities outside the leading fashion capitals, this work turn its eyes to the fashion industry in Cape Town, South Africa. From the runways, to the work of fashion designers, models, activists, and a fashion council this research centers the perspective of fashion as collective action. From the analysis of a fashion week as a ritual, to the work conditions and mentality shaped by neoliberalism, till the aftermath of COVID-19 in the south african fashion industry this work aims to provide better insight on the mainstream fashion from an anthropological lens.

Resumen Espectáculo
-
The present work analyzes mural art in Mozambique as a product and producer of discourses that perpetuate the official narrative about the liberation struggle and the construction of the post-independence country. Their texts are polysemic narratives with easy access to the public, but not always democratic in the ways they are used. Using photography, from the perspective of recording, presenting images for analysis, as well as an instrument for reading social reality, several murals were captured in the cities of Maputo and Matola. The work examines murals whose narratives point to the (re)construction of collective identity memories, from the perspective of official discourse. The murals Ode Samora, Life and Work of Samora and the Mural of Heroes have greater “attention and respect” from the surrounding community, as long as sufficient consideration is given to it for its symbolic value to contribute to its preservation. These murals praise great figures of the country’s history, besides reinforcing official narratives; adding to other means by which FRELIMO constructed the “liberation script”, in Borges Coelho’s terms, and the image of the Mozambican nation. Other murals, with their texts understood as ways of social strengthening, exemplify how their narratives are polysemic and that lessons can be drawn from them, going beyond the official narrative of the anti-colonial struggle.

There are many attributes and characteristics that, throughout history, have sought toseparatehumans from the rest of the animals, the latter being defined, mainly, by the absenceofattributes found in the former. Ethology, the science that studies animal behavior, carriedouta true scientific revolution by carrying out research and questions about the social andculturalaspects of animal behavior, especially in Primatology, the science that studies primates, whichuntil then were investigated almost exclusively , for biological aspects. Fromthis context, thisdissertation aims to carry out an investigation, in the field of anthropology of science, onanimal culture, mainly primate culture, based on inscriptions in specific scientific articlesbyprimatologists, and will focus on the contribution of a species of neotropical primates, thecapuchin monkeys. Therefore, chapter 1 will contextualize the debate on animal cultureinaddition to bringing a new approach to understanding and investigating this issue andchapter2 will focus on demonstrating the contributions of capuchin monkeys to the notionof animalculture based on inscriptions on the notions of tool use, social learning, culture andsocialtradition within scientific articles.

With the national call made by President Juscelino Kubitschek for workers from the interior of the country to build the new capital, Brasília, in 1957, Tapuya indigenous Candangos from Pernambuco also joined in and began to occupy a cerrado area in part of the old Bananal Farm to the manifestation of their cults, prayers, traditional spiritualities away from the visibility of construction sites - the site from which the indigenous community of the Santuário dos Pajés was formed, led by the Pajé Santxiê Tapuya. Since this initial historical milestone, the indigenous community Santuário Pajé Santxiê has established itself in the current territory in the Northwest Sector, of the Plano Piloto de Brasília, known as Santuário dos Pajés, triggering a process of territorialization based on its traditional forms of use and occupation anchored in traditional, cosmological and spiritual knowledge. At the beginning of this century, with pressure and threats to remove the indigenous community from its territory to implement the urban expansion project, Setor Noroeste, the community launched a process of demand and struggle through the indigenous movement of the Santuário Sagrado dos Pajés (Santuário Sagrado dos Pajés) (The Shrine of the Shamans Doesn’t Move!). Today, indigenous territory has been recognized as traditionally occupied land in accordance with Article 231 of the Federal Constitution and has been in the demarcation phase by the Federal Court since September 2019, after a long and dramatic process of judicialization and interethnic conflicts within the scope. of State.

This dissertation's central objective is to understand the dynamics of the conflict experienced by the Fulni-ô in recent times, starting in 2018. It intends to follow the discussion of the conflict by mapping the history of the conflict, how it arose and why it continues; by discussing among the Fulni-ô how their lives were affected by this rupture and what conflict resolutions were like in the lives of the Fulni-ô in the past and by analyzing the impact of the conflict on the lives of leaders and children as well. As a starting point, it raises the theme of the colonization of the hegemonic world, which today associates capitalist fronts and their allies in the state, which has intensified the conflicts that mark our socio-cosmology. I understand that conflict is part of Fulni-ô social life, but among our people it has taken on alarming proportions. I am a Fulni-ô researcher and I will carry out an ethnographic study, seeking to immerse myself in the topic that has disrupted the social life of my people.

Resumen Espectáculo

This dissertation studies technotopic proposals for bioeconomic innovation and their conceptual frameworks regarding Amazonian sociobiodiversity. Bioeconomy encompasses economic strategies for preservation based on the sustainable use of renewable resources for the production of goods and services. Echoing this rationality in different ways, the nine proposals investigated also stand out for recognizing two elements related to Amazonian peoples and communities: (1) their production chains based on the region’s natural resources; and (2) the knowledge associated with their traditional uses of biodiversity. Overall, they suggest the existence of an incipient Amazonian bioeconomy, whose development through technological innovation can prevent the complete savannization of the Amazon and ensure its future. Through dialogue with studies on technology, the dissertation examines this technotopic representation, outlining its assumptions. Based on this, it presents the economic prism that underpins the recognition of Amazonian populations. It also demonstrates that this entails framing cosmo-technical otherness according to assumptions stemming from the dichotomies of nature//culture (different cultures symbolize a Nature to be preserved) and culture//technique (in interactions with Nature, techniques are merely instruments of production and subsistence).

Resumen Espectáculo
-
The present dissertation aims to carry out two investigative movements that culminate in a theoretical-conceptual approach involving the extractive gathering activity in the Amazon. The first movement concerns a recovery of the mobilizations and the historical-contextual trajectory of the use of the term gathering in anthropology. The second movement follows the same process but centers on the term extractivism, expanding its scope to the human sciences. These movements emphasize certain aspects and crystallizations regarding the extractive gathering activities, particularly those concerning trees and plants. I understand these categories as not merely descriptive labels, but analytical prisms of diverse realities. It becomes evident that the use of these categories can be slippery and, at times, confusing. Notions such as 'primitivism,' 'low technology,' 'low impact activity,' 'wild/domesticated' oppositions, 'nature/culture,' among others, have been and still are, to varying degrees, elaborated or reified in various texts and research that seek to explore the reality of extractivism. Therefore, in the final movement, I aim to outline an anthropological approach that can dismantle many of these arguments which, ultimately, obscure certain aspects and dimensions of the plant extractive gathering activity. Thus, I employ an approach that emphasizes the constitutive dynamics of extractivism, not its absences. Techniques, gestures, and modes of action are presented as a possibility for a new understanding of the extractive activity in the Amazon. I conclude that the exploration of movements, flows, and forms of mediation within a techno-environmental approach can help better understand multiple extractivist ontologies and the constitution of Amazonian extractivist selves.

This doctoral dissertation examines the situation of indigenous people who live or have lived in prison units in Roraima. It show how the system penalizes indigenous people for their acts and crimes. There are four chapters showing how this process of criminalization in the indigenous world has increased. Acculturation is increasingly stronger, with the taking on of the values of non-indigenous people. In the First Chapter of this dissertation I seek to show a little of the history and colonization of the village communities that exist today, talking about the social and cultural organization of the indigenous peoples that inhabit Roraima. I emphasize the process of acculturation and the imposition of the non indigenous world on indigenous peoples. In the Second Chapter I try to demonstrate the historical process of colonization of indigenous peoples in Brazil and especially in Roraima, and that the rate of indigenous people imprisoned is very high. In the Third Chapter, I talk about the Prison System that punishes and judges and show how the process of incarcerating indigenous people in prison units occurs. Knowing that the process does not only includes investigation by competent units, and it also includes observing the point of view of indigenous
people who find themselves deprived of freedom. In the fourth chapter I try to give
some meaning to this order and disorder of cultural information in school education and indigenous education.

From an intersectional andethnographic perspective, this paper aims to understand theprocesses of mobility, constructions of belonging and the impact of anti-blackness on theeveryday lives of women from the West African continent living in the Cape Verdean capital.By choosing the conflicts built on the racial grammar in a black African country, I try to shedlight on the flows that these women weave, the differences they experience in relation to menof the same origin, their family (re)configurations, and how they develop new networks ofprotection and sociability-which are crucial for their survival-as well as how they make itpossible to maintain the old ones in the midst of the mobilities they weave, beyond the tropes.In order to understand this phenomenon, I base my research on three axes: the processes ofarrival and the daily and legal challenges they face in order to stay in the country; the productionof affection during their stay, reflecting on family, associativism, and conjugal relations; andfinally, I highlightthe national discourses of welcome, bringing up the production of the colorline and new grammars of difference as channels for segregating these women. In this way, byfocusing on those who are "on the margins" of Cape Verdean society, this thesis aims toobservethe persistence and updating of the colonial armor in its structuring

Among the multiplicity of experiences of the pandemic, this thesis describes scenarios for coping with covid-19 in Pauini/AM, based on dialogues with indigenous people of the Apurinã people, recording strategies of institutions and communities to prevent the arrival of the disease and organize care to the cases that arose. The ethnographic research involved semi-structured interviews, document analysis and experiences from my work at Funai's Coordenação Técnica Local in Pauini. Initially, when telling how the pandemic was in that context, I describe how the numbers and categories they intended to measure were produced, pointing to the possibilities and limits of the versions they tell. I reflect on the construction and management of health policies, investigating movements between national and state scales and the local context, when analyzing the presence and absence of guidelines around medications recommended in primary care. Documents from the Ministry of Health that addressed medicines are described, paying attention to the way in which the government constructed its denialist stance in relations between state and science. Returning to the local context, I describe perceptions about the use of medicines, discussing their place in Indigenous Health polices and articulation in the various care practices carried out by communities. I talk about the work of protection and guidance of their people carried out by the Apurinã Pajés, as well as about the home medicine, many types of teas, mobilized at that time. Thus, I describe ethnographic situations that point to relevant particularities in making and learning teas, such as technologies intertwined in care practices.

The thesis examines the largest cash transfer program in South Africa, the child support grant (CSG), focusing mainly on the perspective of seven beneficiaries - all pregnant at an early age - and three of their children. A quarter century after its inception, the CSG’s health, educational, social and economic outcomes have been demonstrated by abundant research. To a lesser extent, so has its insufficiency. This notwithstanding, influential scholars have proposed a new era of cash transfers as a substitute for labour-based patterns of livelihood and citizenship. Drawing on three periods of presential fieldwork and eight months of remote research, I argue that historical struggles for liberty and labour interwove, laid profound roots within Black commoners, and continue to inform their desiderata and standards of legitimacy. Like fertility, presence and sharing, liberty and labour remain paramount values in South Africa, part and parcel of its moral infrastructure. The ultimate grip these values have over concrete lives, including the pleasure and suffering they inspire, can only be grasped by a social anthropology attentive to what Marcel Mauss once called disciplines nourricières (law, morals, and political economy). In a more prospective vein, I also argue that psychoanalysis can help ethnographers deal with interlocutors affected by poverty and other forms of social violence - gender-based, above all.

From the 2000s onwards, the expansion of large enterprises proved to be the possibility of strengthening the neoliberal State - which redesigns the borders and the character of citizenship through its policies adapted to the market. The Samarco disaster, which occurred in 2015, brings to light several aspects, from the structural and circumstance elements that may have led to the dam failure, to losses and damages - changes to the river, impacts on people and their ways of life - and conflicts around mitigation caused by the destruction and then its compensation. This doctoral thesis aims to investigate the performance of State institutions facing the biggest disaster resulting from the collapse of tailings dams in Brazil, through understanding the process of participation, demands, negotiation, mediation and deliberation of rights in the documentary spheres that constitute the repair process of Samarco disaster. I seek to contribute to the deepening knowledge of the way Brazilian justice operates, through Public Prosecutors, in defense of human rights. The repair, mitigation and compensation process, was administered by proposing Public Civil Actions and the adoption of Terms of Conduct Adjustment, both oriented for negotiated resolution of socio-environmental conflicts. Some of the negotiations culminated in agreements made in court and, in an unprecedented solution, which was the creation of a private foundation that became responsible for repairing the damage caused by the collapse of the Fundão dam. Furthermore, it was established the Independent Technical Advisory, aiming at the institutionalization of social participation in the repair process and the support of technicians that people who were affected could trust for the construction of programs and actions that address their demands. Thus, the objective is to describe how legal instruments and social technologies for conflict management were used in the Samarco disaster, in addition to reflecting on how the logics of neoliberalism, extractivism and environmental injustice are related.

The theoretical object of this ethnography is how identity or identification – be it ethnic or national or otherwise – is articulated and constructed (or transformed), particularly in border or conflict situations. The empirical object is about the borders of the Russian category of identification, with a focus on the post-Maidan Russian-Ukrainian border region (2014-2020), more specifically Donbass, and also the Don Cossacks. To this end, fieldwork was carried out in Rostov-on-Don, with Cossack interlocutors and also in the so-called Republic of Lugansk. This ethnographic case is then located within a larger ethnological context, namely that of East Slavs and that of post-Soviet situations. This work employs and refines Stephen Shulman's and Chew Sock Foon's notions of loyalties and attraction and also Brubaker's concept of groupness. It does so by drawing on John R. Eidson and others' notions of alignment and reframing, thereby thinking of categories of identification in terms of frames; as such, these categories can (re)align and re-frame themselves in different ways. This dissertation proposes the notion of a post-Soviet vacuum as a generator of identity demands and dilemmas. This work also addresses the notion of Russkiy Mir (Russian World) and the Compatriots policies. Moreover, it discusses how a matrioska conception of the State collides with national State concepts and with nationalizing projects in post-Soviet states such as Ukraine. Finally, it identifies, paradoxically, a Moscow-centered ethno-cultural-religious core even in post-national Russian projects. Some considerations are also briefly made about the Russian-Ukrainian conflict post-2022.

This work proposes a reflection on female agency among the Yanomami in the Maturacá region, located in the part of the Yanomami territory that lies in the Amazonas state. The ethnographic analysis of the research was based on the forms of political participation of Yanomami women, taking as its focus their experiences within an organization constituted from non-Indigenous models, but intertwined with the daily lives of these women in the production of social life. Despite the challenges faced during the research, this thesis addresses the monitoring of the expansion of Yanomami women's political activities, including their strategies of resistance to the ongoing threats suffered within their territories. The results suggest that female agency is projected from everyday life into the functioning of the association, causing women to assume, without strangeness, the management of new political relations as they previously did in caring for the crops, food, the formation of the Yanomami person, and in neutralizing unknown forces. Through the construction of a political space that articulates different alterities, Yanomami women have shown skill in navigating non-Indigenous models. They face new experiences aiming for dialogue with diverse knowledge, contradicting limiting and crystallized views regarding the Yanomami as a whole.

To deceive memories, the Serpent of Colonialism often shed its skin, changed its name and disguise, was the scale of escaped kings, was a homeland against those who didn't even have a homeland, dictatorships dictating pains in acts, decrees and laws; reptilian republic, parties fragmenting people, trampling on utopias. To expand its body and grow, the Colonial Serpent recently shed its skin once again – its old skin was too ugly and dirty – it crawled over ancient ashes and bones, devastating trees, macerated leaves, flowers and roots, dust from living stars, gathered sap and juice in a macabre ritual, until visible greenish scales appear. Camouflaged is the infectious wound that covers the body of the Green Serpent of Capital. Adorned crawls. It constricts, constrains, suffocates and kills. Your unliving progresses over the body of our great Mother Earth. The Earth has a fever. Even so, we continue walking, opening the paths of Arandu to our tragedies, insisting and fighting, sowing seeds of rebellion and freedom in our journey on the Ywy Mba’e Megua, sick land, land of things that waste away. Our grandparents always knew: the One is bad, the One is sad, the One is the turning point, the One is power, and power is the first cousin of fear that drives genocides, erasures, murdered memories, evil words. said, the screams, the speeches through which and on which power builds its poor arguments, the terror that emanates from them. The important thing here is to capture, at the same time, the strength and forms of the irrepressible desire for freedom insurgent against the “fantastic attraction for the One” on which the constant temptation of voluntary servitude is fed.

The COVID-19 pandemic had numerous consequences in the Brazilian context. Markedly unequal, people lived in different ways in this continental country and along with this some quick solutions appeared, mainly in speeches by public figures such as the former president of the republic and other health professionals. Hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin, Nitazoxamide or Annita, all medicines included in the Kit-COVID, were some of the immediate bets in response to the context of the global health crisis. Since then, a series of debates about forms of treatment and dealing with a pandemic have been published in the newspapers, creating an infodemic scenario. This was characterized by a profusion of messages, scientific discoveries monitored in real time and new findings about an unknown illness. Instigated by these events, I began an investigation via 3 newspapers and news: CNN Brasil, Folha de São Paulo e Jornal Matinal, with the aim of better understanding the magical solutions represented by medicines, based on Toniol (2020), and its consequences in the Brazilian context. This work was splitted into two stages: a documentary stage, which consists of news analysis and another field trip, which consists of interviews carried out with scientists. From reading and systematizing news from media outlets, I understand that there is a certain appropriation of narratives within the sciences and their dissemination in these media. Furthermore, monitoring scientific findings at different times gave rise to more or less credibility for new treatments for COVID-19. At first, in March 2020, Hydroxychloroquine revealed itself as having potential for treating the disease, but as of June of the same year, the suspicion was not confirmed and became “proven ineffective”. In this sense, the scientific field could respond to the productions and reproductions of these statements. Curious about the possibility of reflecting on the scientific manufacture of the Kit-COVID medicines within the space of the scientists who researched the substances. In total, I carried out 28 interviews with 26 different researchers between September 2022 and February 2023. Most of them were located in the southeast of the country, due to the large record of research via Plataforma Brasil of experiments coordinated by scientists from this region. The researchers reflected on the loopholes in the regulation of experiments with medicines already on the market, the relationship between science and politics and the conduct of some health professionals in their clinics. There is a set of factors that cause a medicine to be advertised and thus pose a risk to public health, which was early involved in a sequence of medical prescriptions for substances still undergoing scientific experimentation

This thesis, which results in the present research work, is research carried out in the ethnic context of the Tupinikim Indigenous People in the indigenous village of "Pau Brasil", located in the state of Espírito Santo. between the years 1970 and 2023. According to Almeida (2015, p51), "[...] An example of a social construct is social status." This author also argues that Malinovski (1978) proposed an important theory about the social context, it is in this multiethnic, multilingual and intercultural context that we carried out the research whose general objective is to identify, study, discuss and analyze the contributions of ancestral knowledge to the linguistic revitalization and the strengthening of the ethnic and cultural identity of the Tupinikim indigenous people of the State of Espírito Santo, southeastern region of Brazil. The research is configured as autoethnography (SOUSA, 2021), considering that the researcher is indigenous and has always lived with the researched environment, being born in the village where he lives and works until the present day. It is also an ethnosociolinguistic research (ALMEIDA, 2015; ALMEIDA, ET ALL, 2021), to the extent that we work on the theories of ethnography considering anthropological, linguistic and socio-communicative aspects (BORTONI-RICARDO, 2014), in all its complexity. In addition, we situate Indigenous Education in its own epistemological framework, differentiating it from Indigenous School Education, through a careful review of the pertinent literature. With this, we intend to situate the Brazilian scenario in the context of interculturality, so that we can appropriate the concepts and representations of what we understand as "Specific, Differentiated, Intercultural and Bilingual/Multilingual Indigenous Education". It problematizes questions about cultures and educations in their interfaces with territorial struggles, and seeks to answer questions not always present in pedagogical inquiries: Does the indigenous struggle for land educate? The theoretical and methodological framework is multidisciplinary. The methodology is based on the principles of ethnographic research (ERICKSON, 1984, 1988; SOUSA, 2006); quantitative and qualitative (GUNTER, 2009, ALMEIDA, 2015). The main strategies were the application of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Due to its investigative essence, the procedures of bibliographic and documentary research were widely used. The theoretical foundation uses a broad front of categories that complement each other dialectically in a multidisciplinary conception. For Indigenous Education and Indigenous School Education (LOPES DA SILVA, 2001, GRUPIONI, 2001, 2006, MAHER, 2006, ALMEIDA, 2012, 2015); on Indigenous Brazil, Land and Territory (GALLOIS, 2006; ISA, 2016; FUNAI, 2016); About the Tupinikim of ES, Téão, 2016. Finally, it proposes a complex perspective to understand and guide the development of educational contexts that promote the articulation between different subjective, social and cultural contexts.

Resumen Espectáculo

This thesis is part of a fifteen-year research trajectory among the Terena das people, villages of the Cachoeirinha Indigenous Land (Miranda-MS) and the urban village Marçal de Souza (Campo Grande-MS). It proposes, through the recovery of field data collected by the researcher from the scientific initiation and master's degree research, and from the critical review of the specific bibliography on the Terena, looking at connections between body, relationships and land. Starting from terena trunks, the thesis covers bioethnography of Seu Calixto Francelino, one of the main interlocutors of the research, who died in 2017. The reflections that unfold from this story resume and update the possibility of thinking about trunks as a way of life/earthly relationship with the land and with relatives that escapes Western interpretation. The second part of thesis deals with the earth and the understanding of the notion of terrestrial earth from some observations about how the fight for it has been, proposing a interpretation also from the xuve. In the third and final part, the thesis seeks imagine possible worlds based on the aesthetics of earthly relationships and the earth as relationship. In general, the work points to the idea that it is not possible to separate the attacks on the land of affronts to a way of life that values good coexistence between beings, starting from the earthly learning that there is a correct way to act in the world to make life, and its landscapes, appear with their joy and beauty.

Resumen Espectáculo

The pandemic scenario that struck us from 2020 onwards unfolded, in the Tapajós basin, in an unprecedented onslaught of predatory mineral extraction, with serious consequences for the Munduruku people in general, and particularly for the leaders with whom I worked for almost 8 years. In one word: mining. That is, devastation of forests and bodies of water, militias within villages, death threats to leaders and – unfortunately – much more. This contextualization is relevant to justify why, given the events, I dedicated a portion of my time to supporting the Munduruku by intervening in the public debate. In addition to insertion in the press and digital media, I turned to technical production regarding mining, between 2020 and 2023. This thesis seeks to take an ethnographic look at the technical material I produced, and what I followed from the Munduruku amid the onslaught of mineral extraction. predatory – which, although it does not appear precisely in this way in the literature, is a preponderant aspect of the extreme right's political project, which threatens people and land, life, munduruku.
