Demarcação de terras indígenas: um estudo acerca do Decreto nº 1.775/1996

Abstract

The demarcation of indigenous lands is a historical and extremely controversial topic, given its object loaded with discussions and disputes over spaces that white men believe they have the right to access. Such discussions are commonplace with the National Congress, since the motto is linked to the interests of landowners represented on the bench, as well as by environmentalists who, even in small numbers, have been fighting the search for territorial expansion of agribusiness that, in watering, does not measure environmental, social or cultural consequences. The main objective is to clarify and promote awareness of the essentiality of demarcated and protected lands so that the Indians, primordial remnants of national history, can preserve their culture. The study focused on the analysis of Decree 1,775/1996, as well as on the need for efficient legislation that guarantees rigid and functional supervision in order to guarantee the security and legitimacy of indigenous peoples. It is an explanatory research, using a bibliographic review, with a deductive approach and bibliographic research.
