LIVING IN THE AMAZON STATES AND THE CONTROL AND DOMINATION STRATEGIES OF THE IMPERIAL STATE OF BRAZIL
This article analyzes the discourses on the way of life of the populations that occupied the Amazonian hinterlands of the 19th century, in this case, the provinces of Pará and Amazonas, residing on the banks of rivers and streams and who worked in extractive activities and planting in small swiddens. Using government and expedition reports as Sources, we demonstrate how these values, associated with agricultural activity, required the State to perform not only in maintaining order, but as an institution promoting policies that would elevate the habits of populations in the Amazon, in dissonance with life experience of the locals.

Abstract:
This article analyzes the discourses on the way of life of the populations that occupied the Amazonian hinterlands of the nineteenth century, in this case, the provinces of Pará and Amazonas, residing on the banks of rivers and streams and who worked in extractive activities and plantations in small clearings. Using government reports and expeditions as sources, we demonstrate how these values, associated with agricultural activity, required the State to perform not only in maintaining order, but as an institution promoting policies that would elevate the habits of populations in the Amazon, in dissonance with life experience of the locals.
