SUMMARY:

The “isolation” of indigenous peoples is a topic widely debated in the public policy, in civil society, in academia and in the media. In indigenous comunities and assemblies, the discussion about “isolated” “relatives” is also debated and often treated in a heated manner, as it is directly linked to discussions about their indigenous territories (and territorial protection). The relationship with their territories (the territorialities) is articulated and influenced by the ways, peaceful or not, of relating to other indigenous groups and/or non-indigenous people - the State and populations aroud their territories. Their territoriality and ways of relating to other collectives are also pressured by the invasion and destruction of the rainforest. Based on different ethnographic experiences, provided by indigenist paths as a FUNAI servant in the Amazon region between 2006 and 2018 - from Acre to Maranhão, recorded in field diaries, intertwined with historical accounts available in extensive bibliographical and documentation, I seek with this dissertation to share indigenous and indigenist accounts and perspectives, developing different approaches and ways of writing about the theme. From the accumulation and interweaving of accouunts and own and bibliographic perspectives, it is possible to see that "isolation" - in its various forms - can be synonymous with "contact", futhermore the mobilization of these concepts does not only occur in relation to Amerindian collectives  categorized  by the state as "isolated indigenous peoples", but to all indigenous peoples.  A deep understanding of what “isolation” or “contact” means can reveal, like a magnifying glass, some particles that constitute the persistent genocidal and ethnocidal process on indigenous peoples. If so, the continuous and well-known indigenous resilience (the “isolation”?) would occur from and would be the proof, therefore, of the persistent genocidal and ethnocidal complex.
