The "Pioneer" Front In The Amazonia: Struggle And Rubber Tapper Resistance And The Invention Of The Extrativist Reserves

Abstract

The present work aims to study the history of the creation of Extractive Reserves, based on the analysis of the struggle and the political involvement of the rubber tappers in the Amazon against the destructive advance of the "pioneer" front. The process of capitalist occupation of the Amazon region has brought to itself fragmentations of the endogenous territorial coherence by altering the past forms of land use, arousing various social tensions in the forest.
