A Identidade Kinikinau como máquina de guerra para a ocupação e manutenção territorial no Mato Grosso do Sul

Abstract

We seek in this work, to understand the territorial dynamics developed by the indigenous Kinikinau ethnicity, throughout the social territorial process of building thereof, including the period in which they were considered to be extinguished. We emphasize, from the moment of desinvisibilization of the group, showing how they developed from its identity, its floating territory. We also work the dispossession and disterritorialization processes that ethnicity passed at various times, including one during the process of preparation of the research, which took place the process of dispersal of individuals by numerous Terena villages in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. To meet these processes and resist all the violence suffered by the State and elsewhere, during its history, developed various forms of resistance here identified as war machines that are critical to the development and strengthening of the struggle for the right to its territory Traditional they engender against the National State, one responsible for the lose of it. Thus, here we work with new concepts, but we consider important to geography, such as the concept of frontiering, war machine, floating territory; and other known concepts and worked the longer the Geography of research, as deterritorialization, identity.
