Resumo
Mining is an extractive activity with a high capacity for decimating nature. In
turn, it is one of the economic activities that is part of the list of
developmental and neoliberal policies exercised since the early 1980s in Brazil,
but has a history of compromising the well-being of nature and traditional
populations, such as indigenous peoples, since the European colonization of
the American continent. The genocide in the face of indigenous peoples was
not stopped with the advent of capitalism, it only transformed the already
existing colonization. The catastrophe of the junction between State, capital
and mining is once again perceptible, when the new coronavirus pandemic
spreads across planet Earth, and the decimation of indigenous populations and
nature remains, by Decree no 10.282/2020, when it became the mining as an
essential activity, in the midst of the chaos that was putting the lives of the
entire Brazilian population at risk, but the danger suffered by indigenous
peoples with the state’s failure to take political decisions during the critical
period of the pandemic stands out. Thus, in this dissertation, the hypothesis of
the contradiction between the reality of indigenous peoples and their
territoriality living in constant threat is raised, in view of the provisions of
articles 231 and 232 of the Federal Constitution, and the propulsion of mining
in indigenous territories, taking advantage of the pandemic by COVID-19. The
general objective was to evaluate the state contradiction in the face of the
developmental policy unfolded in Brazil, and the protection and demarcation of
indigenous territories, in the face of the social and economic dynamics of
neoliberalism, during the pandemic. With that, the specific objectives are to
describe mining in Latin America, understanding the socio-environmental and
economic context and the territorial organization, as it is reflected in the
present day; verify the effects of the pandemic on capitalism and indigenous
populations in Brazil; finally, verify the contradictions of the State between
protecting indigenous territories and promoting mining. The methodology of
approach used is the historical and dialectic materialism, with a methodology
of procedure of bibliographic research, audiovisual and collection of data in the
state autarchies. The conclusion was that the state contradiction became more
flagrant in the face of the pandemic, by defining mining as essential for the
Brazilian population, even if its action processes provoke agrarian conflict,
death by intoxication, the destruction of nature and compromise the
well-being of indigenous peoples.
