Resumo: | Latin America figures historically as a continent plundered and exploited, with its people and natural resources, by countries of central capitalism. In the current context of imperialist domination, the extractive mining is recognized as an indispensable productive activity of the globalized capitalism and of the exporting business model that is in effect in the Latin American continent. In view of this context, this article aims to show and reflect upon the extractive mining of iron ore in Minas Gerais, more specifically in the region known as the “ferriferous quadrilateral”, putting emphasis on the recent criminal bursts of tailings dams, on the super-exploitation of the workforce, on the environmental destruction and on the resistance put up by the communities and populations directly and indirectly affected as well as by other collective subjects that adopted as their cause the fight against the current model of mining and against the violence and violations that it entails. |

The extractive mining in Minas Gerais: “ah, if the load was lighter”A mineração extrativista em Minas Gerais: “Ai, antes fosse mais leve a carga” Latin America figures historically as a continent plundered and exploited, with its people and natural resources, by countries of central capitalism. In the current context of imperialist domination, the extractive mining is recognized as an indispensable productive activity of the globalized capitalism and of the exporting business model that is in effect in the Latin American continent. In view of this context, this article aims to show and reflect upon the extractive mining of iron ore in Minas Gerais, more specifically in the region known as the “ferriferous quadrilateral”, putting emphasis on the recent criminal bursts of tailings dams, on the super-exploitation of the workforce, on the environmental destruction and on the resistance put up by the communities and populations directly and indirectly affected as well as by other collective subjects that adopted as their cause the fight against the current model of mining and against the violence and violations that it entails. A América Latina figura historicamente como um continente saqueado e explorado, bem como, suas gentes e seus bens naturais comuns, pelos países de capitalismo central. No atual cenário de dominação imperialista, a mineração extrativista é reconhecida como uma imprescindível atividade produtiva do capitalismo mundializado e do padrão exportador em vigência no continente latino-americano. Diante disso, este artigo busca explicitar e refletir sobre o contexto da mineração extrativista de minério de ferro em Minas Gerais, mais especificamente na região do quadrilátero ferrífero, dando ênfase aos recentes rompimentos criminosos das barragens de rejeitos, à superexploração da força de trabalho, à destruição ambiental e às resistências travadas pelas comunidades e populações direta e indiretamente atingidas e por demais sujeitos coletivos que assumem como pauta de luta o enfrentamento a esse modelo de mineração e às violências e violações que gera.Revista KatálysisRevista KatálysisRevista Katálysis2021-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/79502Revista Katálysis; Vol. 24 No. 3 (2021): Terra, Território e América Latina; 459-469Revista Katálysis; Vol. 24 Núm. 3 (2021): Terra, Território e América Latina; 459-469Revista Katálysis; v. 24 n. 3 (2021): Terra, Território e América Latina; 459-4691982-02591414-4980reponame:Revista Katálysis (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/article/view/79502/47367Copyright (c) 2021 Kathiuça Bertolloinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBertollo, Kathiuça2021-09-28T18:49:39Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/79502Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/katalysis/oairevistakatalysis@gmail.com || kataly@cse.ufsc.br || revistakatalysis@hotmail.com1982-02591414-4980opendoar:2021-09-28T18:49:39Revista Katálysis (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
