Resumo: |
The present work aims to analyze the relationship between death, violence and religion, from the context of power and domination over indigenous people and how this contact gave rise to a certain “way-of-being-Latino”. Some categories were worked on, mainly from authors such as Veena Das, Enrique Dussel, Eliane Potiguara, Giorgio Agamben and Achille Mbembe. Everyday life, testimony, violence, “Other”, devices, “land” and periphery were some of the main categories used. Some other categories were also proposed, in order to be added to future studies, such as: Tripod of Power, Peripheral Counterspeech and Suffocation Devices. The importance of this research is in helping us understand our existence as Brazilians and Latinos. The problems raised to guide the research were: a) is it possible to think about Latin existence and other problems (epistemology, for example) from our own daily lives without having to resort to the Eurocentric view of history and knowledge? b) How are the concepts of death, violence and religion interconnected in a power dynamic and used to maintain oppression? c) By analyzing the relationship between invaders and indigenous people in the first 250 years of colonization, is it possible to affirm that the “way-of-being-Latino” is born from exploitation and has its existence based on resistance in the face of such violence? The research was carried out based on three hypotheses raised: the defense of a “peripheral counter-discourse”, based on everyday life and the testimony of the exploited; the proposal of a “Tripod of Power”, composed of the concepts of death, violence and religion, which serves as an analytical tool for studies on Power and Sovereignty; and, finally, the hypothesis of a “Latin-way-of-being” was worked on, which arises from the instrumentalization of death, the violent imposition of the invasive culture and the violation of bodies, minds and cosmoperceptions, with the maintenance of this “wayof-being-Latino” made through everyday life itself and in the field of the ordinary. It was concluded that it is possible to think about existence based on authors from the global south, without having to resort to authors who do not speak from the peripheral reality. It was also concluded that the Tripod of Power presented itself more as an analysis tool than a hypothesis itself, with this category having proven to be falsifiable and well supported historically. Finally, it is concluded that the “way-of-being-Latin” is presented as multiple and complex, and it is not possible to affirm the existence of a “way-of-being-Latin”, but rather “ways-of-being -latino”, in the plural.
