“…Rodeos are argued to be an extension of frontier life, the domination of culture over nature, by Lawrence (1982). Particularly for ranchers and descendants of early settlers of the West, rodeos may have importance as a ritual, a celebration of their western heritage (Stoeltje, 1989). However, skills required for success in professional rodeo events have little historical precedence or use on working ranches (Clayton, 1990).…”

“…As técnicas e outras características culturais da criação de gado nas Américas se desenvolveram a partir de suas raízes Ibéricas, mas tornaram-se particulares, à medida que criadores de gado se adaptavam aos novos contextos econômicos, ecológicos e políticos (BUTZER 1988;SLATTA, 1990 Barretos (DENT, 2009: 7;GONÇALVES;IACOMINI, 1997). Os rodeios Norte-Americanos têm origem semelhante (STOELTJE, 1989), indicando caminhos nos quais a economia da criação de gado orientada para o mercado, construídas sobre tradições comuns Ibéricas, deu origem a formas de expressão ritual semelhantes nas regiões da América (STRICKON, 1965). No final dos anos 1980 a crescente popularidade da música sertaneja inspirou empresários locais que decidiram transformar o festival em um tipo de "torneio…”

O presente artigo trata de aspectos da cultura rural/urbana no Acre, desenvolvidos durante o processo recente de reocupação da região, trazidos por diferentes grupos migrantes. Tomando o gado bovino, o boi, como elemento a partir do qual se traçam análises da reorganização da vida nesse novo local, recriando com cores próprias a chamada cultura country, com roupas, músicas, danças, apropriada por pessoas, geralmente jovens, sem relações com o universo rural e, por outro lado, o cotidiano dos pequenos proprietários rurais, marcado pela dura rotina de trabalho, poucos recursos e sofrendo as atrações do modo de vida urbano. Nesses cenários onde o boi vai de anima de estimação a commodity, reconstroem-se com cores próprias, as influências trazidas de outros pontos do país que pautam a construção de relações sociais e econômicas.

“…Its roots are spread between the Wild West Show, the traveling circus, and local, ranchbased competitions of the nineteenth century. 19 Embedded within its very language are deeper origins in Spanish horse culture, the haciendas of Mexico, and cattle ranches of the American southwest. 20 Equally resonant in rodeo are the horse cultures of the Great Plains First Nations where equestrian skill conferred status on men and the beauty of beaded tack demonstrated the talent of the women who made it.…”

Each year, people gathered in small towns across the Canadian west to participate in rodeos and stampedes. While these events were often organized to promote and celebrate the non-Native community, organizers were keen to invite Aboriginal people. And Aboriginal people flocked to them. This paper explores the ways in which rodeos and stampedes functioned as points of contact between First Nations, mixed-heritage, and non-Native people. It explores why non-Native communities invited First Nations and why Aboriginal people accepted. It examines the place of on-reserve rodeos in the development of rodeo in western Canada and the extent to which they attracted non-Native people. It then examines how interactions at rodeos were structured by gender and racialization, and how these structures were sometimes overcome. Finally, it offers a glimpse at the emergent community of professional rodeo which, reputedly, embraced all rodeo cowboys regardless of ethnicity. In so doing, this paper explores how hybridity and liminality played a role in the development of Western Canadian rodeo and hence in the community celebrations in towns and cities in British Columbia and Alberta.
