Os efeitos sociais dos projetos de mitigação socioambiental em Fazenda Pindobal - Alagoinhas / Bahia: uma perspectiva etnográfica

Abstract

his ethnography was produced based on qualitative approaches and participant observation with the aim of analyzing the social effects caused by large developmental projects in the oil sector and eucalyptus plantations at Pindobal Farm, a rural community in the municipality of Alagoinhas, state of Bahia. With the protagonists of the residents, the observations and analyzes start from their perspectives and the social effects indicated in the research are the result of ethnographic processes and interviews. In this sense, this dissertation is organized in two chapters, in the first, I present the Pindobal Farm and introduce information about the socio environmental mitigation projects based on my professional experiences in the development of socio-environmental conditions and as a researcher participating in actions undertaken by large local enterprises. In the second chapter, I approach in more detail the social effects from the experiences and perspectives of the residents of the community using excerpts from the interviews, photographs and the interweaving of narratives of the interlocutors to the anthropological theory. Finally, I present the considerations indicating that the social effects caused by the large developmental projects in operation in the locality, and their implications in the lives of the residents of Fazenda Pindobal, until the present day, can be understood as ineffective and the mitigation occurs discreetly. and without major positive results in the lives of residents.
