ResumoThe way the Embera-Chamí envisage, establish access, control and use of the territory is framed by the way they perceive and interact with the other components of the environment in which they inhabit. This is done from conceiving the environment and its components as beings; and the relationship with them as a counterpart to the kind of relationships that exists between human beings. This perception implies that the management of the territory is framed in networks of power that legitimize the social position of the jaibaná; simultaneously generating mechanisms to dominate, safeguard and socialize the territory.
