Resumo: Starting from a singular interpretation that the Karitiana, a Tupi-Arikem group in Rondônia, proposed for an event they have watched on television, this article intends to reflect on the relations between disease, history and the environment in a context of inter-ethnic relations and serious and complex problems this contact created in indigenous societies in South-America lowlands. The text suggests that the Karitiana are aware of the various events around the globe, and that they reflect on them based on their cosmological parameters. Thus, they produce comments of global reach that can be taken as forms of knowledge and environmental criticism including, for example, the relations with history, cosmos and its inhabitants, both humans and non-humans.

O texto sugere que os Karitiana estão atentos aos diversos acontecimentos ao redor do planeta, e refletem sobre eles a partir de seus parâmetros cosmológicos. Assim, produzem comentários de alcance global que podem ser tomados como formas de conhecimento e crítica ambientais, ao abranger, por exemplo, as relações com a história, com o cosmos e com seus habitantes, humanos e não-humanos.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2012-03-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/mediacoes/article/view/2012.v17n1p8510.5433/2176-6665.2012v17n1p85Mediações - Revista de Ciências Sociais; Vol. 17 No. 1 (2012); 85-120Mediações - Revista de Ciências Sociais; Vol. 17 Núm. 1 (2012); 85-120Mediações - Revista de Ciências Sociais; v. 17 n. 1 (2012); 85-1202176-66651414-0543reponame:Mediações - Revista de Ciências Sociaisinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/mediacoes/article/view/2012.v17n1p85/10989Copyright (c) 2012 Felipe Ferreira Vander Veldeninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira Vander Velden, Felipe2022-05-12T11:02:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/12611Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/mediacoes/indexPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/mediacoes/oaimediacoes@uel.br2176-66652176-6665opendoar:2023-01-13T10:37:55.173213Mediações - Revista de Ciências Sociais - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
