Resumo: The crab (Ucides cordatus) picking, done by cabocla women in Northeast Pará of the North Coastal Amazon Region, permits the analysis of the environmental question and of gender relations from an anthropological approach on a specific Amazonian traditional population. The environmental question is dealt with in terms of conservation, handling and knowledge about environmental resources. Evidence shows that crab picking is an artisan activity developed in mangrove swamp areas near the town of Guarajubal in which catching and doing product betterment of the crab are women’s work, stimulated by the growing demand from nearby urban centers. The work of the catadoras (pickers) allows them to manifest their opinions in relation to the environmental problems, albeit in the local context.

Quanto à questão ambiental, é tratada em termos de conservação, manejo e conhecimento de recursos ambientais. Evidenciou-se que a pesca desenvolvida nas áreas de manguezais na vila de Guarajubal é feita artesanalmente e direcionada à captura e beneficiamento do caranguejo, com o trabalho decisivo das mulheres a partir da maior demanda nos centros urbanos próximos. O trabalho das catadoras lhes possibilita manifestarem-se em relação aos problemas ambientais, ainda que no contexto local.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2007-05-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X200700020001610.1590/S0104-026X2007000200016Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2007); 485Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2007); 485Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 15 n. 2 (2007); 4851806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2007000200016/4278Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMachado, Denise2020-01-30T09:10:06Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/4917Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:37:20.934416Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
