Abstract

In recent times, South American governments are triumphing in implementing an ultraliberal agenda linked to the destruction of common goods, that is,the privatization of nature and the socially produced heritage of humanity. This article presents a reflection on the life experiences that face this process of destruction of the communitarian, which aims to capture nature, communities, women and sociability. Advisory work and empirical observations of communitarian practices of palm tree use, the ethics of care and the conservation of babassu forest have made it possible to understand the strategies of the Interstate Movement of the Nut Babassu Breakers (MIQCB) in the construction of autonomous territories.
