Estudantes Indígenas Na Universidade Federal Da Paraíba: Reflexões Sobre a Interculturalidade E a Decolonialidade
Este artigo analisa o significado da presença de estudantes indígenas na Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB) e como essa presença tem sido capaz de promover o processo de interculturalidade no espaço acadêmico. O processo de inclusão social dos povos indígenas no ensino superior representa um desafio, pois envolve a discussão sobre o conceito de interculturalidade, que exige rompimento de paradigmas (decolonização), desconstrução do repasse un…
Educação Superior Indígena No Século Xxi: Aproximações Entre México E Brasil
A educação superior indígena implantada no século XXI instituiu um novo modelo de educação pautado no princípio da interculturalidade, gerando numerosos estudos que trouxeram luz a esse novo campo de saber. O presente artigo tem por objetivo identificar aproximações e discrepâncias nas experiências de dois países: no México, com a criação de universidades interculturais indígenas; e no Brasil, com a criação de licenciaturas interculturais indígen…
Beyond the Nature-Culture Frontier: Sea Urchin Festivals in French and Brazilian Communities
In order to challenge the culture–nature dichotomy, this article investigates two festivities centered around fishing and consuming the sea urchin in two different locations: the Suape Bay Ouriçada (Brazil) in the Southern Hemisphere, and the Carry-le-Rouet Oursinade (France) in the Northern Hemisphere. This study employs both bibliographic and ethnographic research carried out at the two festivals over the last six years. The communities that or…
Terra Indígena Em Disputa: A Reterritorialização Dos Potiguara Na Terra Indígena Potiguara Montemor/Paraíba/Brasil
A disputa pelas terras ocupadas pelos Potiguara tem se processado em ondas históricas, iniciadas com as invasões coloniais portuguesas no século XVI e a ocupação efetiva do litoral paraibano entre 1585 e 1634, com a introdução do plantio da cana-de-açúcar. No século XX, nos anos 1970, novas ondas de ocupação tiveram origem na instalação de complexo industrial têxtil e de agroindústrias sucroalcooleiras. Nos anos 2000, a produção de camarão em tan…
Diálogo de saberesin La Vía Campesina: Food Sovereignty and Agroecology
The transnational rural social movement La Vía Campesina has been critically sustained and shaped by the encounter and diálogo de saberes (dialog among different knowledges and ways of knowing) between different rural cultures (East, West, North and South; peasant, indigenous, farmer, pastoralist and rural proletarian, etc.) that takes place within it, in the context of the increasingly politicized confrontation with neoliberal reality and agribu…
Rural Social Movements and Agroecology: Context, Theory, and Process
Rural social movements have in recent years adopted agroecology and diversified farming systems as part of their discourse and practice. Here, we situate this phenomenon in the evolving context of rural spaces that are increasingly disputed between agribusiness, together with other corporate land-grabbers, and peasants and their organizations and movements. We use the theoretical frameworks of disputed material and immaterial territories and of r…
Participatory Democracy in Action: Practices of the Zapatistas and the Movimento Sem Terra
Participatory democracy has been studied as an auxiliary to state processes and as an institutional and cultural part of social movements. Studies of the use of participatory democracy by the Zapatistas of Mexico and the Movimento Sem Terra (Landless Movement-MST) of Brazil show a shared concern with autonomy, in particular avoidance of demobilization through the clientelism and paternalism induced by government programs and political parties. Bo…
La Vía Campesina: The Birth and Evolution of a Transnational Social Movement
The origin and evolution of the transnational peasant movement La Vía Campesina is analysed through five evolutionary stages. In the 1980s the withdrawal of the state from rural areas simultaneously weakened corporativist and clientelist control over rural organisations, even as conditions worsened in the countryside. This gave rise to a new generation of more autonomous peasant organisations, who saw the origins of their similar problems as larg…
