Resumo

doi: 10.12957/geouerj.2017.22330 The proposal of this research is to comprehend how the Danube Swabians, immigrants from Eastern Europe (Yugoslavia, Hungary and Romania) are constituted as a political and economic power group and the contribution of this group to the development of the region of Guarapuava, in south-central Paraná, Brazil.The Danube Swabians left compulsorily the southeastern Europe to live in refugee camps in Austria after the Second World War. As a result, 500 families enrolled in a project that aimed to create an agricultural cooperative in Brazil with governmental incentives. After their arrival in Brazil, they founded Cooperativa Agrária in 1951. The text was based on the qualitative research obtained through the collection of documentary data on the cooperative, the cultural and political-economic life of immigrants, secondary data from institutional bodies and interviews. As a result of this investigation we can affirm that the installation of the group cooperated economically for the municipality, but not in an equitable way. There was also a process of territorial segregation (or self segregation / differentiation) and intense valorization of the Germanic tradition and culture.
