Abstract

The colonial administration and management of the indigenous peoples of Brazil has been a recurrent theme in historiography. However, the Amerindians, important actors in the process of the construction of colonial society, have been largely absent from the historical literature. The objective of this article is to critically debate, using modern historiographic methods and theory, three important aspects to understand the governance of the Amerindians of Brazil: the religious administration, the control of native lands, and management of their labor. It is necessary to take into consideration the natives as actors of their own history and their actions of resistance, adaptation, and negotiation when they engaged the colonial powers
