This thesis is based on the conception that the universe, our society and ourselves experience different life spans inextricably interwoven. It means that past, present and future cannot be understood apart from each other and / or as a sequence of steps. However, modernity has established the idea which time is linear, uniform, eternal and universal. Such perspective has become hegemonic in our society and, moreover, adopted the concept that time is ascendant and progressive. The work presented here seeks to demonstrate that thinking the time into this way imposes barriers to intelligibility of the world we live in; both in social phenomena and nature. On the basis of distinct theoretical contributions from Physics, History, Sociology and Geography, among other sciences, the assumptions of modernity are questioned over the time, so that it is introduced another viewpoint concerned about the three temporal dimensions in a plural and integrated aspect. In consequence of this analytical course, it is raised to discuss pasts, presents and futures, as well as randomness and uncertainty are considered as integrated part of history itself. In regard to this framework, it is possible to analyze the conflicts arisen from the construction of Santo Antônio and Jirau hydropowers in the Madeira River, in the state of Rondônia, the repercussions on regional populations, especially on coastal communities. The clashes fought by these people against companies and other stakeholders in the erection of dams are named as temporal conflicts. The focal point of this reflection deals with multiplicity of time and temporal conflicts which are current in waters of the Madeira River.
