Abstract

Este artigo focaliza na compreensão das características estruturais e funcionais dos movimentos indígenas da Venezuela que surgiram no cenário político do país e na mídia, protagonizados inicialmente pelos índios Yekuana, durante a década de 1990. A partir dos conhecimentos etnológicos sobre os povos que habitam a bacia do Orinoco, e tendo como referência a matriz cultural orinoco-amazonense, analisam-se as conexões entre esses movimentos indígenas contemporâneos e os movimentos de resistência militar dos séculos XVI, XVII e XVIII que encontram suas raízes no Sistema de Interdependência Regional Horizontal do Orinoco (SIRO).This article attempts to understand the structural and functional features of indigenous movements in Venezuela that appeared in the country´s political scenario and in the media during the 1990´s. Initially, the Yekuana Indians were the major protagonists of these movements. From the ethnological record about the peoples of the Orinoco basin, and having as a reference the Orinoco-Amazonian cultural matrix, the article analyses the connections between these contemporary indigenous movements and the movements of military resistence of the 16th, 17th, 18th centuries, which have their roots in the Orinoco System of Horizontal Regional Interdependence (SIRO).
