Respostas decoloniais à governança híbrida: agência indígena em zonas disputadas pelo crime organizado e o Estado

Abstract

This research presents an exploratory analysis of indigenous agency in areas disputed by organized crime and the State in the Amazon basin region based on concepts from the field of Peace studies. Its objective is to understand how the presence of organized crime affects indigenous communities and identify the actions that these peoples have taken to combat this problem. In addition, it also aims to discuss how coloniality and racial classification contributed to power and domination relations, perpetuating the marginalization of indigenous peoples. A qualitative approach was used for this research, with occasional quantitative aspects, starting from a systematic review of both the literature and journalistic materials on the theme worked on. In this way, the research presents a comprehensive and important view of the presence of organized crime in the Amazon region, highlighting the need to understand local dynamics and promote effective actions to combat violence and guarantee the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples.
