| Sumario: | This paper aims to discuss the influence area of Belo Monte dam, in operation since 2016 in the Xingu river, state of Pará. This discussion starts with the analysis of the perspective of riverine people from extractive reserves of Terra do Meio on the impacts to problematize the spatial category that relates, in particular, to the exclusion of these protected areas as affected territories. Using qualitative methods that involve fieldwork, participant observation, ethnography, and semi-structured interviews, this paper highlight the contradictions surrounding the non-recognition of the riverine populations in the context of impacts of Belo Monte dam. |
