O ENSINO DE HISTÓRIA INDÍGENA A PARTIR DAS LUTAS PELA TERRA DOS AVA-GUARANI EM GUAÍRA E TERRA ROXA, OESTE DO PARANÁ.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the presence of Indigenous history in the textbook "História, Sociedade e Cidadania," used in the 9th grade of Alfredo Boulos, of the public school system in the state of Paraná, focusing on the land struggle of the Guarani Nhandeva and Avá Guarani peoples from Terra Roxa and Guaíra. It seeks to verify to what extent the book complies with legal requirements and engages with the local reality of these peoples. For this purpose, bibliographic and documentary research was conducted, using a qualitative approach and content analysis to study the legislation and the textbook. The results demonstrate that, although the textbook includes references to the Indigenous theme, they appear in a fragmented and superficial manner and maintain a paternalistic perspective, representing the native peoples as passive subjects devoid of agency. It is concluded, therefore, that it is imperative to supplement the material with other sources and critical pedagogical practices in order to foster truly intercultural and decolonial education, which recognizes and values the agency and contemporary struggles of the Guarani people for the real application of the legislation.
