Dilemas do processo de desterritorialização de famílias atingidas por grandes projetos na Volta Grande do Xingu, Pará, Brasil.

This paper discusses elements of the drama experienced in relation to the process of deterritorialization and resistance by the peasant families of the villages of Ressaca, Ilha Fazenda and Garimpo do Galo in the Volta Grande of Xingu due to the construction of the Belo Monte hydroelectric and Volta Grande of Xingu Mining project. Besides the work of direct observation and frequent dialogues with the local residents, interviews were conducted, of which 11 were recorded, in the period between May and July, 2012. It was possible to observe a process of deterritorialization of drastic consequences in which corporations naturalize the consequences in the lives of the people under the argument that the ultimate goal is the common good. This manifestation is emphasized insofar as the State supports the reproduction of the discourse that local populations are barriers to the development and justify the actions that overlap the local way of life, even though they amplify social problems.
