Vila Tauiry: choque de naturezas, capital versus tradição. Uma visão antropológica sobre vidas em transformação

Abstract

This study aimed to measure the impacts that may occur on the riverside population of Vila Tauiry, which is part of the municipality of Itupiranga in the southeastern region of the state of Pará. In the area known as Pedral do Lourenção, fruit of the opening of the Araguaia-Tocantins Waterway. Considering previous impacts. As the implementation of the Tucuruí HUP, and the understanding that this population has of this time. In this sense, the objective was to try to analyze how this population, when triggering collective memories of a past event, may behave in the face of an event of the present. How this affects material and symbolic connections al- ready established, between them and the natural environment. For this, the research effort was carried out through data collection, which included fieldwork and reflections. As well as con- sultation of printed or digital material (fundamental depending on the pandemic). Such impacts suffered by the traditional riverside community of Tauiry, would come from various economic interests, acting with the state bureaucracy of the Federal Government, as a means of enabling hat through DNIT. Thus, an active arm of the great capital, in this stretch of the Amazon, as opposed to the traditional way of life riverside. Thus originating what I called a "clash of na- tures". All these possible shocks can generate circumstantial conflicts related to their way of life, and the objectification brought by DNIT. Therefore, such a project was not well received by the population of Tauiry. The main reason would be the removal of the stone that make up this part of the Tocantins riverbed, in a total length of about 43Km (a stretch that would go from Vila Tauiry to Bogéa Island). The place has its importance, as a place of reproduction of fish, and of territorial reference. By not "receiving well" the waterway project, as well as other local communities. It did not do so as a mere reflection of fear of the unknown (of the future), or of a possible "socio-economic development" where they would not be included. But based on facts, as promises not made at the time of the implementation of the Tucuruí HUP. This environmental impact may be reflected in a series of changes in conviviality, relationships “between”, and "entre" these traditional communities. Coming from the socio-environmental transformation of their space-territory.
