Abstract

The present work approaches the violence of the Brazilian State in the face of indigenous peoples as a dynamic and political practice that determines the lives that do not deserve to be lived, as well as seeks to identify the indigenous forms of resistance as ways of affirming the importance of their lives and their culture. Based on the theoretical and doctrinal framework on the conception of necropolitics and biopolitics and their reflexes and impacts on modern society, and having as an analysis the contextualization of data published in the Atlas of Violence 2021 and the Report on Violence against Indigenous Peoples, published in 2020 by the Indigenist Missionary Council, it is concluded that in Brazil the destruction of indigenous lives and their ways of existing translates into one of the forms of regulation of social life, which determines the lives that deserve to be lived and the lives that must be destroyed.
