Desterritorialização e reterritorialização das famílias da comunidade Deus é Amor com a construção da usina hidrelétrica de Belo Monte em Vitória do Xingu
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-08-20) AMORIM, Edilane Bezerra; HERRERA, José Antônio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3490178082968263; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8249-5024
This dissertation discusses the transformations that took place in the Deus é Amor community, municipality of Vitória do Xingu, with the construction of the Belo Monte hydroelectric power plant, which, upon arriving in the territory, disrupted the socio-spatial organization of the families, in addition to causing a rupture with the place. and change the ways of life historically established by the subjects, contributing to the geographical movement Territorialization-Deterritorialization-Reterritorialization (TDR) in the Amazon. The community under study is part of what was demarcated by the hydroelectric project through the studies of the EIA-Rima (2009) as a rural Directly Affected Area, located in the sector referring to the Canals Reservoir. This area began to be occupied by families in the early 1980s, until 2011 had 59 families, and after the arrival of the Belo Monte HPP there were only 5 remaining families. The development of the research allowed the analysis of three central points about the object, the first with the understanding of the actions that made possible the territoriality of subjects in the Amazon (1970-2012), the second with the departure of the subjects from their historically constructed places, the deterritorialization (2011-2016) and finally the current process in which they are inserted, with the experience of progressive reterritorialization.

Mudanças geoecológicas na terra indígena Paquiçamba com exploração hidroelétrica do rio Xingu - Amazônia Centro-Oriental
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-02-22) SILVA, Nadson de Pablo Costa; PAULA, Eder Mileno Silva de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8647718165947306; HTTPS://ORCID.ORG/0000-0002-6895-2126; VELOSO, Gabriel Alves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9757471213923099; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3655-4166
Human action, guided by the logic of "progress", has intensely altered the natural landscape, exploiting the environment without considering its capacity for regeneration. In this way, understanding nature's capacity to regenerate is fundamental to developing strategies that can mitigate the various environmental impacts, or even be able to remedy such interventions, especially in areas of socio-environmental vulnerability, such as indigenous lands. Therefore, the study area is the Paquiçamba Indigenous Land located in the Greater Xingu, which has been experiencing an intense process of occupation and environmental impacts. From the 1970s onwards, public policies boosted the occupation of the Amazon, with projects to open roads and create settlements in the region. More recently, the construction of the Belo Monte hydroelectric plant has created new challenges for the TI. In this context, the problem of changes to the environment of the Paquiçamba Indigenous Land has arisen, which has significantly altered the lives of the Juruna indigenous people of the Volta Grande do Xingu. The research analyzed the change in water and land within the boundaries of the Paquiçamba Indigenous Land, from a Geoecological perspective, which was guided by Bertrand (2004), Rodriguez, Silva and Cavalcanti (2013), Rodrigues and Silva (2013; 2019), Souza (2010), Paula (2017). The geoecological compartmentalization and analysis of changes in the Paquiçamba Indigenous Land between 2011 and 2023 showed intense changes. The main one is the decrease in the flooded area, which went from 4,911.27 hectares in 2011 to 2,854.03 hectares in 2023, a reduction of 41.88%. This reduction, attributed to the construction of the Pimental dam in 2016, caused significant changes in the area. Beach areas decreased, while rocky areas increased from 1,477.80 hectares in 2011 to 1,889.80 hectares in 2023. Navigable areas have also been reduced, directly impacting the lives of the Juruna indigenous people who depend on the rivers for fishing, transportation and access to resources.

“Tem que mover uma ação”: mobilização, participação e resistência indígena no processo de licenciamento ambiental da usina hidrelétrica Belo Monte
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-02-22) SOUZA, Estella Libardi de; BELTRÃO, Jane Felipe; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6647582671406048; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2113-043X
In this thesis, I analyze the mobilization, participation and resistance of the indigenous peoples of the Middle Xingu in the course of the implantation process of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant (HPP), located on the Xingu River, in the municipalities of Altamira, Vitória do Xingu and Brasil Novo, in the state of Pará. I discuss the political action and the resistance of the indigenous peoples to the actions for the implantation of the plant, with the purpose of understanding: how do indigenous peoples act and react in the face of damages and losses to their territories and ways of life, caused by the implantation of Belo Monte HPP? How do they act to deal with violations and violence? What rights are enunciated and claimed in your political struggle? For the development of the thesis, I used qualitative research methods, such as participant observation and interviews, through fieldwork in Altamira/PA, Brasília/DF and in indigenous lands, between July 2015 and February 2017. In the first chapter, I address the historical trajectories of the indigenous peoples of the Middle Xingu, in an attempt to understand the specificities of the different social and historical situations experienced by them. In the second chapter, I examine the political and legal context in which the hydroelectric project on the Xingu River, which gave rise to the Belo Monte HPP, was created, and explore the project's chronology and history. In the third chapter, I discuss the implementation of the Belo Monte HPP, focusing on the environmental licensing of the project and the (im) possibility of participation of indigenous peoples, having as main sources the documents of the process of the indigenous component of environmental licensing, which is being processed at Funai, and that build a state narrative about the implantation of the hydroelectric plant. Finally, in the last chapter, using the narratives of Juruna/Yudjá and Arara people from Volta Grande do Xingu as main sources, I analyze the mobilization and strategies of struggle and resistance of indigenous peoples in the course of the environmental licensing process of the project, whether to do recognize the losses suffered, to “negotiate” with the Brazilian State and Norte Energia the mitigation and compensation measures for impacts, to pressure for the implementation of other measures established as conditions for environmental licenses or to demand actions that guarantee the improvement of their conditions of life, even if not provided for in environmental licenses.

UHE Belo Monte e as concepções espaciais do conceito de atingido por barragem: uma análise a partir da lagoa do Independente I em Altamira-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-08-24) ESTRONIOLI, Elisa Mergulhão; MIRANDA NETO, José Queiroz de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3367795786739987
This work aims to identify different conceptions of space that support the concept of being affected by dams - subjects that emerge from the contradictions within the expansion of the energy industry in the context of the development of dependent capitalism in Brazil. The research is a case study about the residents of the Lagoa occupation in the Jardim Independente 1 neighborhood, in the city of Altamira, Pará. They have been organized together with the Movement of People Affected by Dams (MAB) to be recognized as affected by the Belo Monte hydroelectric plant, in a case that highlights the limits of the spatial concept used by the electricity sector to define those affected. The research was based on secondary data and semi-structured interviews with former residents of the area and other actors involved with this process. The result of the research indicates the existence of at least two spatial perspectives that shape the disputes around the concept of the affected: an “areal conception of space”, which is related to the territorial-patrimonialist and water view of the affected, prioritizing the physical aspect of space and hiding social relations; and a “human” or “relational” conception of space, which considers the spatial effects of these large-scale projects under the logic of totality, taking into account the social relations in the production of space, including political determinations.
