Alianças, traições e reconciliação
Um panorama histórico da atual política de reconhecimento territorial indígena no Canadá
Resumo
O estado canadense tem uma relação secular com os povos indígenas que nele habitam, e a sua atual política de reconhecimento de territórios indígenas obteve êxito em concretizar a designação de amplas extensões de terras como de ocupação tradicional. A recente política de reconciliação entre povos originários e sociedade colonizadora, no entanto, é apenas o capítulo mais recente de uma história marcada por alianças e traições que é pouco conhecida no Brasil. Para cobrir essa lacuna, o presente artigo se divide em duas partes. Na primeira, por meio de ampla revisão bibliográfca, objetiva trazer à lume, para a audiência acadêmica brasileira, uma visão sintética dos processos históricos que culminaram na instituição da moderna política de reconhecimento de territórios indígenas no Canadá. Na segunda, apresenta de forma detalhada em que consiste a atual Comprehensive Land Claims Agreements Policy. Concluímos apontando para a importância de aprofundarmos o conhecimento sobre políticas de reconhecimento territorial indígena em países com características similares ao caso brasileiro.Referências
