Retomadas, autonomy and (cosmo)politics in the Tupinambá moviment

abstract

The lands occupations (retomadas) by the indigenous peoples of Brazil has become, in recent decades, an practice that has become important for putting pressure on the authorities to demarcate the Indigenous Lands and attack those who have appropriated their territories. However, the retomadas are not limited to conflicts over land, since they are not only fights for material or symbolic resources, they are also not just a fight for their identities, since they are not limited to agency the differences coordinated by the state. In another order of arguments, the retomadas are practices that have been rescuing places and propagating important relationships for indigenous peoples, materializing what is proposed and proposed to us in terms of a ontological conflict, where is produced and counter-produced what we call politics, territory, culture, power. This article explores this problem, maintaining a dialogue between the retomadas and the autonomic indigenous practices, following the understandings that the Tupinambá de Olivença maintain within their movement for the “recovery of the territory”.
