(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-04-24) GOMES, Peti Mama; BELTRÃO, Jane Felipe; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6647582671406048; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2113-043X
In Guinea Bissau, the feras - Crioulo word for “fairs” - play a significant role in the country's economic, social and cultural life. They are places of intense buying and selling of goods, encompassing issues of female emancipation, meeting and reunion points, historical narratives, experiences, and shared living. Therefore, they are configured as plural public spaces, and privileged contexts for ethnographic fieldwork, where a series of complex sociocultural relationships develop. This thesis aims to understand, through a female-centered and anthropological perspective, the socioeconomic dynamics of Guinean women, who sometimes are bideras (official fair female vendors), fassiduris di bida (women who make a living by selling), sumiaduris (women who own orchards), and bindiduris (female sellers in general) who played active roles - before, during and after the pandemics - in the three main local feras: Bande, Caracol, and Bairro Militar, all in Bissau city, capital of Guinea-Bissau. This study is the result of ethnographic research, whose methodological process combined online research and in-person fieldwork. For this, oral narratives from digital platforms were used, such as social networks, through messages and audios interchanged with di mindjeris di fera (the fair female vendors). During the research period, the main ethnographic strategies included informal conversations, transcriptions, and ethnographic data analysis. The last stages of research took place in Bissau, with a focus in the bideras and fassiduris di bida. In conclusion, the analysis focused on the problematization of gender relations and work, and how they were affected by the pandemics. The results indicate that my research interlocutors are responsible for a large part of the country's material and symbolic subsistence, which was evidenced and intensified with the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemics.

Feiras-livres e feiras de exposição: expressões da relação cidade-floresta no sudeste paraense
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-02-19) NUNES, Débora Aquino; TRINDADE JÚNIOR, Saint-Clair Cordeiro da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1762041788112837
Based on theories of circuit of the urban economy of Milton Santos and of the everyday life of Henri Lefèbvre, the reflections of this study are in line with the theme: the relationship city-florest in the eastern Amazon. Analyze this relationship in the face of actual regional dynamics is our main goal. Thus, free fairs and exposition fairs in the city of Marabá appear as empirical clippings, because it are representatives spaces of changes and continuities of the city-forest relationship in southeastern paraense. For this, we used the following instruments: a) theoretical and conceptual bibliographic review of issues, theories, concepts and notions relevant to the search; b) bibliographic review of historical and geographical character and secondary data survey about southeastern paraense, city of Marabá and its free fairs and exposition fairs, and also about public policies relevant to relationship between city and forest; c) photographic survey in the free fairs and Agricultural Exposition Fair of Marabá (EXPOAMA); d) systematic observation field on the interaction city-forest; e) realization of individual interviews recorded with semi-structured questions applied in the technicians, planners and public officials linked to planning and management of Marabá; in the representatives of the free fairs; in the representatives of the Farmers Syndicate of Marabá (SPRM) and of the Commercial and Industrial Association of Marabá (ACIM); in the frequenters of fairs; in the workers of free fairs; and representatives of companies participants of the EXPOAMA; f) analysis and systematization of data collected on the theoretical-conceptual framework previously defined and reviewed. The forest is denied and removed in benefit of the economic production and capitalist everyday life in southeastern paraense. In this context, is highlighted the role of mining and agricultural activities. The state produces and provides the basis for this process, which destroys traces of the past and build new representations and socio-spatial relations in region. Thus, the spaces that gain prominence are insert in the logic of modernity, such the exposition fairs. That fairs are oriented by exchange value and by absence of the forest, serving as windows within the national and international market. The modernity in Marabá along with the negation of the forest invades even the spaces of free fairs. This fairs has an important role in the reproduction of social groups with lower purchasing power, and have been invaded, increasingly, by extra-regional products and distant logical. Neglected by the actions and interventions government, the free fairs are treat sectorally, ignoring the agro-extractive activities practiced and possible. Thus, in Marabá and its relationship with its surroundings, the forest is deny in its multidimensionality (economic, ecologic, symbolic and ludic).
