The article reflects on the conformation of the world view of a group of
young people from a city in the southeast of Pará, Parauapebas, about the experience of
living on an Amazonian border. The visions of common sense – on the one hand the
promise of wealth and development; on the other hand, the image of crisis and violence
– are contrasted by the representations effectively constructed by these young people in
their daily lives, forming a generational experience marked by the sensation of
transience. The discussion is based on research about the social representations of a group of 38 students of a Communication- Journalism course. For the most part, these
students were born outside the Amazon region and experienced the social situation
identified by several authors as being marked by the conflicting and transient dynamics
that characterize the social processes of occupation of the Amazonian territory – a
situation that is often identified as an ontological void. We test this perception by
contrasting it with the actual daily experience of young people. To do so, we collect
their social representations of where they live, inquiring about how their perceptions of
the world and the rural Amazon are mediated by the intersubjective and media tissues
that make up the Amazonian "frontier" as a space condemning to the transition and to
the eventuality. |
