SUMMARY:

The focus of this dissertation is the intersection between conflicts and racial relations in the Quati region, in the city of Pedro Alexandre, estate of Bahia. This relationship is the result of the environmental disaster caused by the rupture of the Quati Dam on July 11, 2019. The documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews contributed to the realization of an ethnography of conflicts in the ways in which social agents share and dispute control, and their use of natural, human, and environmental resources. The racial perspective provides an understanding of how relationships are established and based on conflicts and the environmental racism experienced by Quati community members in this context. While the existing conflicts are seen as environmental phenomena, underlying mechanisms of social order are inserted in the normative structure based on racist differentiation practices in the interaction between groups. The research therefore brought how the disaster caused and mobilized changes in the ways of life from the Quati community members, as well as evoked the historical process of conflictual interactions between social agents regarding issues of ethnic identity and representation.
