This dissertation studies the dynamics and interrelations between the colonies of “Oriente” and “Potiritá” within the frame of the Bauxite Project of Paragominas. The study focuses on the communities around Platô Miltonia 3, where the bauxite exploitation is centered, taking into consideration the area of the mineral pipe system running through the municipality of Paragominas. The study examines the interrelation of private mineral companies, in this case represented by VALE, through the Bauxite Project of Paragominas, with local power represented by the city management council (“prefeitura”) and the communities. The methods used in this analysis are qualitative research and ethnographic method; techniques such as interview scripts and others were also used in order to identify participation characteristics and the meaning of interrelations. Conflict, power and rural community participation were the categories considered in this analysis, in order to learn their meaning within the studied framework. The analysis allowed us to understand how the intervention capacity occurs when facing social problems, claims and wishes. The conclusion leads us to say that participation as citizens and access to information create responsibilities, making individuals responsible for their acts and capable of changing their reality. Particularly, transformations in accordance with social projects which favor their goals.
