Resumo: | This article analyzes the agrarian question and land-related fights in Goiás State, in the context of occupation and territorial transformations. We analyze the phases of Goiás territory occupation and formation processes and the appropriation of indigenous territories, eventually leading to large estates and empowerment of influential people and “masters of the land”. After the waning of gold exploration, the main economic activity in colonial times, large farms were created to raise cattle and promote a subsistence agriculture. Since then, land grabbing, the expropriation and exclusion of workers and indigenous people have become common farmers´ practices so as to have their land expanded. The few families related to land owners have constituted a new breed of land masters, which have bonds with the Federal government and have gained political control over state institutions. The working population was left to organize peasant movements and fight against abuses performed by the dominant class and for access to the land, as an alternative to survive and remain in the country. Important fights have been and will continue to be implemented to change such an unfair reality. |

Este artigo analisa a questão agrária e os processos de luta pela terra e pela reforma agrária no estado de Goiás, no contexto da ocupação e das transformações territoriais. Analisam-se as fases do processo de ocupação, a formação do território goiano e a invasão e tomada dos territórios indígenas, visando a formação dos latifúndios e o fortalecimento do poder dos coronéis e “senhores da terra”. A partir da decadência da exploração do ouro, principal atividade econômica da época colonial, formaram-se grandes fazendas para a criação de gado e produção da agricultura de subsistência. Nesse contexto, a grilagem de terras devolutas, a expropriação e a exclusão dos trabalhadores e indígenas se tornaram práticas recorrentes por parte dos fazendeiros para expansão de seus domínios. Essas poucas famílias de donos da terra acabaram por se constituir em nova classe de coronéis no campo, que, articuladas a instâncias do poder federal passaram a exercer o controle político das instituições estaduais. Restou à população que vive do trabalho organizar movimentos camponeses e lutar contra os abusos praticados pela classe dominante e pelo acesso à terra como alternativa de sobrevivência e permanência no campo. Importantes lutas foram e continuam sendo realizadas para mudar essa realidade.
