Dissertação (Mestrado em Antropologia Social) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2015.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/20325The process of indigenous ethnic self-assertion in the State of Rio Grande do Norte is very recent and have been represented as a counterpoint to the official historiography denying the presence of these social actors in the state. The purpose of this research is to investigate a group that identify themselves as Potiguara on the beach of Sagi (RN), valuing aspects related to their identity, social organization and territorial process. In addition to its ethnographic purposes, using the participant observation and the production of a set of interviews, the work analyzes, in particular, the generation of a history of origin, based on kinship and territorialization, from invisibility to identity reorganization amid conflicts and demands for ethnic recognition.porAcesso AbertoAutoafirmação étnicaRedes de parentescoRepresentação histórica e territorializaçãomasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::ANTROPOLOGIA
