OS HUNI KUIN E A LUTA CONTRA O COLONIALISMO DE ESTADO NA FRONTEIRA ACREANA

Abstract

: We present here, a reading proposal about the struggle of a Huni Kuin group, which debased by the logic of the Brazilian National State, are silenced in its unique epistemologies and culture, possessing categories of space and territory that challenge the non-indigenous society and its parameters of relationship with the land. In this sense, we are interested in investigating the implications and developments of the actions of a State that acts in a perspective of discipline and control, of narrated borders, and therefore arbitrary and always vio-lent. As part of the problematization, we work here with the space-time category within different perspectives. Furthermore, we are interested in how these issues can be articulated with the notions of space and territoriality of a Huni Kuin group in their struggles for land, their cultures and identities, and how their singularities have a potential to confront the categories of space-time imposed secularly by the state enterprise.
