“…La guaraná se cultiva, cosecha, transforma parcialmente y vende para asegurar ingresos; solo una pequeña parte de la cosecha se conserva para el consumo. De manera complementaria, las familias que viven agrupadas en comunidades (Stoll y Theophilo Folhes, 2014) 5 a lo largo de los ríos cultivan mandioca, otras raíces, plantas aromáticas y frutas, consumidas o vendidas en el mercado; practican la pesca y, de vez en cuando, otra actividad para completar los ingresos familiares. Hasta los años 80, los guraranicultores caboclos no interactuaban con otros actores sino para la comercialización, ya que numerosos atravessadores (intermediarios) que recorren la región acaparan la compra de guaraná, al momento de las cosechas.…”

ResumenEn los últimos años, Brasil ha conocido importantes transformaciones, entre las cuales se encuentran el refuerzo de la participación ciudadana en la elaboración de políticas públicas e instrumentos innovadores para el desarrollo rural; por un lado, "los territorios ciudadanos" conformados en 2008, y por otro, el acceso al sistema de indicaciones geográficas creado en 2002. Consideraremos a estos mecanismos como favorables a la institucionalización de territorios específicos donde la gobernanza rompería con políticas tradicionales, de manera que la valorización de recursos agrícolas localizados garantice un acceso seguro al mercado. Analizaremos el caso particular de la región de Maués (Amazonas), conocida originalmente como la tierra de la guaraná (Paullinia cupana var. sorbilis). Esta planta forestal amazónica fue domesticada por la tribu Sateré-Mawé para luego difundirse en la región y en otros estados. Aparte de su valorización en el marco de cadenas productivas, mostramos que la guaraná es el objeto de luchas de apropiación por parte de distintos colectivos, con el objetivo de su reinscripción en su territorio de origen. El acceso a las indicaciones geográficas se encuentra en el corazón de un proceso multiforme de territorialización de la guaraná, en el que diversos actores se enfrentan, se excluyen o se coordinan para defender su especialización.Palabras clave: guaraná, Amazonía, desarrollo territorial, colectivos, indicaciones geográficas, cadena productiva. AbstractIn recent years, Brazil has experienced major transformations among which the strengthening of citizen participation in public policy development and innovative instruments for rural development such as on the one hand, "the territories of citizenship" formed in 2008 and on the other hand access to the geographical indications (GIs) scheme established in 2002. We consider these mechanisms as favorable to the institutionalization of specific territories where governance would break with traditional policies so that the valorization of localized agricultural resources ensure a secure access to the market. We discuss the particular case of the region of Maués (Amazonas), originally known as the land of guaraná (Paullinia cupana var. sorbilis). This Amazon forest plant was domesticated by the Sateré-Mawé people before spreading in the region and to other Brazilian states. Apart from its valorization within classic production chains, we show that guaraná is the object of appropriation struggles by different groups aiming at reinscribing it in its territory of origin. Access to GIs finds itself at the heart of a multifaceted territorialization process of guaraná in which different actors face each other, are excluded or coordinate to defend their specialization.

“…It can also be noted that this approach depends, on one hand, on presenting their own image to the world in a particularizing way and, -which, as we shall see in the third part, does not exclude identity reversalsmay be intended to revert an unfavourable conjuncture into a group of allies, as Emilie Stoll (2014) there are two occurrences (in 1978 and 1983) of the name São José de Piratininga before the locality appeared in 1988 as São José and later, in 1996, as São José da Ponte. This suggests that the settlements today asserting their differences used to consider themselves a single collective, which, for unexplained reasons (family disagreements, political clashes, sorcery accusations or so on) ended up splitting, reiterating a dynamic common throughout Amazonia (Stoll & Folhes, 2014). Already separate, each constituted itself as a 'community,'…”

Despite the constitutional inscription of the territorial rights of indigenous and quilombola peoples, a new kind of conflict has emerged between differently classified populations. This article documents this conflict through the study of a disagreement between 'quilombola' and 'indigenous' populations in central Amazonia. The solutions of various actors reveal doubts concerning the real 'ethnic contrast' between the protagonists. The current organisation in ethnic territories is seen as the most recent instance of a series of socioterritorial reorganisations already adopted by the populations in interaction with diverse bodies. The article reconstructs the shifting alliances between opposed factions, highlighting the modalities involved in their formation. When the rights granted by the State to groups of populations due to their exceptionality come under threat, as at present, it is essential to recognise that the fluidity between legal categories reflects their shared struggle for survival.
