• Abstract:

  The present work has as object

  an ongoing socioenvironmental conflict in Gleba

  Nova Olinda, county of Santarém, Pará, involving

  social actors with different modes of ecological

  relationship with the territory in dispute:

  indigenous, extractive, logging companies,

  public administration and the judiciary. In this

  conflict, the territorial dynamics of the Borari

  and Arapium indigenous peoples struggling

  for the demarcation of the Maró Indigenous

  Land are in direct collision with the economic

  interests of timber companies operating in the

  area. Supported by these companies, a group of

  agro-extractive associations of the Gleba Nova

  Olinda proposed action in the Federal Court of

  Santarém to annul the acts of recognition of the

  indigenous territory. The Judiciary, called to resolve the conflict, issued a ruling declaring

  that there were no indigenous peoples in the area, but rather traditional riverside

  populations. Faced with this scenario, the present work makes an ethnographic analysis

  on the discourses contained in the judicial process that questioned the demarcation

  of the Maró Indigenous Land, especially the speech of the judge responsible for the

  case. It seeks, from the clash in the process, to carry out a dense description of the

  socio-environmental conflict in Gleba Nova Olinda and its socio-cultural, political and

  territorial meanings.
