Description
Summary:This article proposes partial connections between the paths of the Sateré-Mawé, pueblos of the Tupi trunk that inhabit the Lower Amazon, to manage the devices of interculturality in the production of political and educational utopias guided by the Guaraná complex in the context of it higher education training. , and modes of Tuxá, of the Submédio San Francisco (BA), of, through the “ritual complex of science”, articulating the self-demarcation of its lands, linguistic revitalization projects and the establishment of heterogeneous cosmopolitical networks. We highlight how the political and educational projects of indigenous groups are entangled by the constraints of legal and state stabilizations of national society that frame statements by rights, as well as triggering multiple instances of distinct categorical and systematic statements. more diverse encounters. Thus, if Tuxá's linguistic and political-pedagogical projects establish a dimension of the study of knowledge of science, in which relationships marked by caution with enchanted beings, rather than human beings, are decisive for access to the language and al ritual complex. through which one understands the strength of the territory; the Sateré-Mawé search for access to the university potentiates and dynamizes political networks and practices that develop from the beginning, updating the attributes of leadership and, at the same time, the ways of relating to the whites, mediated by sese (the true guaraná in opposition to the waranã-rana) and prefigured in the dichotomies inscribed in the Puratig (the magic oar found in analogies with the Bible, school manuals and the Federal Constitution). In both ethnographic contexts, festive and ritual elements – the Tucandeira Dance for the Sateré-Mawé, science for the Tuxá – delineate interethnic frameworks when performed in different contexts with different intensities, but also delimit restricted, esoteric knowledge for the what other conceptions of translation and understanding are needed.
