Ouro e Deus: sobre a relação entre prosperidade, moralidade e religião nos campos de ouro do Suriname

Abstract: IntroduçãoAconteceu no ano 2000. Expulsos da região por um grupo de surinamenses, os brasileiros foram perseguidos até a pista de aterrissagem à beira do rio, onde ficavam as canoas, e entraram em desespero. O que eles poderiam fazer para voltar e recuperar seus pertences? Um deles era a Dona Maria, a quem muitos consideram a fundadora de Benzdorp porque em 1998 foi a primeira a abrir um bar e bordel na região. Dona Maria começou a rezar e prometeu entregar o bordel para ser uma casa de Deus, se os brasileiros… Show more

“…Despite this relentless pressure, Brazilian gold miners continue to haunt the jungle, in the same way that they are heavily active in environmentally protected areas and indigenous lands in Brazil. 4 According to the French authorities, around 10,000 garimpeiros work in French Guiana and produce 5 to 10 tons of gold annually, most of it smuggled to Suriname (de Theije & Luning, 2016;Le Tourneau, 2020). Their presence broadly follows gold-rich deposit geological formation named greenstone belt (Figure 1).…”

“…Some authors particularly focus on the sociology of the garimpeiro society, especially Larreta (2002), Tedesco (2015) or Kolen et al (2013), while Wanderley (2015) focuses more on its geography inside the Pará state in Brazil. The migration of Brazilian gold miners to Suriname has been studied by Oliveira (2014), and De Theije and Heemskerk have extensively researched the organization of garimpeiros in Suriname, their relationships with local Maroon communities and health issues related to the intense mobility of Brazilian migrants between Suriname and French Guiana (de Theije, 2008;2011;de Theije & Heemskerk, 2009;. This last topic was linked to Suriname's malaria program because, though it has succeeded in controlling malaria on its territory, residual clusters continued appearing due to the constant exchanges between mining areas in Suriname and French Guiana.…”

“…Difusas ou voluntárias, tais estratégias de iniciação, interiorização e/ou prescrição movem muitos indivíduos na direção de uma fé que fortalece traços étnicos, culturais e/ou identitários (TOPEL, 2003;RICKLI, 2004;DROOGERS, 2008;FERREIRA, 2009;SEGATO, 2007). De uma maneira mais explícita, outro grupo de artigos considera a força da religião no controle de comportamentos e nas prá-ticas cotidianas, reforçando a ideia de comunidade de sentido, que algumas religiões ainda possuem na contemporaneidade (LUNA, 2008;THEIJE, 2008;BIRMAN;MENESES;GOMES, 2011 No que se refere a novas estratégias de divulgação das religiões, vale ressaltar que se trata de um tema emergente. Quatro artigos destacam o turismo religioso no Brasil e sua dimensão festiva e mercadológi-ca.…”
