STUDENT: GICELE BRITO FERREIRA
ABSTRACT: The present Doctoral research proposal, submitted to qualification in the Postgraduate Program in Social Work, aims to identify how the process of expropriation of means and ways of life is updated in the Western Marajoara Amazon, which results in the forced displacement of traditional populations. riverside areas of conservation areas. The central focus of this research will be forced displacements, migrations-mobilities caused by expropriations, violence and other determinants of socio-environmental relations in conservation areas from their respective historical and environmental landmarks, with their internal flows and complexities. It is from this totality that it is necessary to understand the instituting social conflicts in order to be able to assess the socio-environmental conflicts and, therefore, to discuss the conflicts that involve the management of natural resources, considering the cosmology of traditional populations. will be searched identify the different social subjects, territories and environmental resources (TRINDADE JUNIOR, 2006; ENGELS, 1999 [1876]; MARX, 2011; PORTO-GONÇALVES, 2019) involved in the conflictual displacement procedures. In this context, we can consider the access to new forms of mobility, in space and time, of traditional populations that began to confront other political and economic rationalities and to “enjoy modern technologies” (ESCOBAR, 1997; ÁLVAREZ, DAGNINO, ESCOBAR , 1998; LITTLE, 2004). This modernization is also associated with the expansion of recognition of their social rights (LITTLE, 2004). This process, which apparently renews social utopias for these populations, takes place in a field of social disputes and the redefinition of relations with the market that now incorporates care for the preservation of natural resources, with the symbols of the ecological market, and brings together the characteristic elements of what has been identified by some authors as a process of ecological modernization (LITTLE, 2004; CUNHA, ALMEIDA, 2001; DIEGUES, 1996; COSTA, 2012) that generates conflict between those who used it in common. The previous considerations point to the need to rebuild the project of professional training of the Social Worker, demarcated transversally by the dilemmas of contemporary Brazilian society. As one of the expressions of the social question, the process of migration and forced displacement of conservation areas, which were constituted as spaces for the preservation of nature and humanity, are now expropriated, this process needs to be studied.
