Abstract

The Amazonian development ideology found in the Large Mining Projects a mechanism capable of suspending all regional diversity, in the name of a more "rational" geography. This article problematizes this process, taking as an empirical field of analysis the territorial diversity of the Carajás-Itaqui corridor in order to pluralize the meanings of a space thought, solely, to follow the financial times of commodities. More than analyzing the political technologies of exception that normalize the capitalist flows of matter and energy, we take distinct territorialities in r-existence to mining in Carajás as a political and epistemic imperative to demonstrate that the iron roads in the Amazon are also indigenous, quilombolas, peasants, and fishermen roads. These experiences of alterity, marked in the expressiveness of the indigenous forest-territory, in the territorialization of the sounds of the Awá-Guajá, in the territories of quilombola care, in the territories of common use of babaçu coconut breakers and in the territoriality of fishermen, are not only different ways of thinking, but also different ways of thinking about space, other ontologies that present us with another geographical and political repertoire.
