Abstract

This article aims to reflect on the processes of territorialization associated with the systematization of public policies and territorial development projects that, combined in their different scales, aggravate the social and environmental problems that afflict the indigenous Xokó people in the contemporary world. Based on an analysis of the spatiotemporal mediations that constitute, historically and geographically, the precariousness of the current environmental conditions of the Saint Francis river basin, we reflect on the territoriality developed by these indigenous people in their modes of material and immaterial reproduction, keeping our territorial approach in the strategies of political and productive organization of the community of the village of São Pedro Island, particularly in relation to artisanal fishing.
