SUMMARY:

This dissertation investigates the cosmopolitics of the Yawalapiti indigenous people, a historical analysis of the political organization of the Upper Xingu. To perform this analysis, the oral history methodology was used. Interviews were collected among the Yawalapíti and, based on their individual and collective memories, it is possible to understand how the culture and tradition of this people guide their political actions. The present research seeks to answer who are the Yawalapíti, what is the context of the Xingu Indigenous Land, as an ethnopolitical territory. Going through the social history and socio-cultural organization of the Yawalapíti people, through their sacred rituals, their social rules, the spirituality and ancestral customs of the people. Finally, we analyze the political history of the present time, portrayed in the current political context of the people.
