Abstract

In Brazil, since the enactment of the Federal Constitution of 1988, significant changes have taken place in legislation, especially for the remaining quilombola communities, hitherto criminalized. Thus, in an attempt to repair this damage, one has the Article 68 of the Transitional Constitutional Provisions Act (ADCT), the main legal mechanism for the recognition of property for quilombolas. However, although it is recognized as an advance, the definitive issuance of the property title for the communities is slow in the demarcation and titling stages. Currently, they are countless recognized communities of quilombo remnants, but are very few definitely titled. It is in this scenario of uncertainty that are the quilombola communities impacted by the São Francisco River Integration Project (PISF), under the responsibility of the current Ministry of Regional Development. The present study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Quilombola Land Regularization Subprogram in the remaining quilombola communities listed by the Basic Environmental Plan (PBA 17) of the PISF. The research is a qualitative approach and an exploratory-descriptive study. The 1st stage included bibliographic and documentary research on documents and information from websites, official websites of public bodies, mainly from the Ministry of National Integration, today the Ministry of Regional Development, from the Palmares Cultural Foundation - FCP and from the National Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform. – INCRA. The 2nd stage was aimed at systematization and data analysis. This research is justified by presenting relevant information for the quilombola communities impacted by the project of transposition of the São Francisco River. The results point to a slowness in the processes of demarcation and titling of quilombola lands, the communities affected the PISF, caused mainly by the inertia of the federal government, in addition to pointing out that PBA 17 was partially implemented, as only one community obtained its partial titling.
