Abstract

This work deals with disputes around the Earth and future from a small community of inland Acará (PA)named São Francisco do Cravo. Methodologically, i made a triadc option to approach the subject, reflecting onthe peasant community, agribusiness palm oil company and the State, namely, São Francisco do Cravo, theBiopalma SA and different levels of government in Brazil, taking the concept of territory by Oliveira (2003) andthe Situational Analysis presented by T. Murray Li (2014) theoretical that assisted in the management of fieldinformation, documentary sources and interviews carried out over these three years of research. I understand thatreflect the implantation and advancement of Amazonian agribusiness in the Amazon, particularly in the northeastof Para, means considering the projects and models that have been identified as alternatives for the developmentof the region. The peasantry present in the community, in turn, manifests in their practices the will to remain onthe land and continue reproducing as a class and way of life (SHANIN, 2008), from small-scale agriculturebased on family work. In the meantime, it is sought here to reflect on how the ongoing land disputes constituteand lead to disputes over the future.
