    Aparecida Vilaça, Aparecida M N Vilaça et al.BOOKStrange Enemies2020

    In 1956, in the Brazilian state of Rondônia, a group of Wari' Indians had their first peaceful contact with whites: Protestant missionaries and officers from the national Indian Protection Service. On returning to their villages, the Wari' announced, "We touched their bodies!" Meanwhile the whites reported to their own people that "the region's most warlike tribe has entered the pacification phase!" Initially published in Brazil, Strange Enemies …

  • Conflict, Peace, and Social Reform in Indigenous Amazonia

    Carlos Fausto, Tommaso Montagnani et al.BOOKCommon Knowledge2016Cited by: 4References: 10

    Sociocultural transformations brought about by indigenous leaders in Amazonia have been described as prophetic, millenaristic, or messianic and contrasted with modern reformism.

  • The rationalization of rural life

    Open AccessArilson Favareto, David RodgersARTICLEEstudos Sociedade e Agricultura2006

    The article seeks to establish the conceptual distinction between territorial and traditional approaches to rural development in the social sciences. Based on the emergence of what has come to be known as “the new rurality,” there has been a shift in social content and in the quality of the relationship among its three fundamental defining dimensions: rural-urban relations, proximity to nature, and interpersonal ties. The more important implicati…
