| Sumario: | This work analyzes the role of state institutions in the process of land regularization of quilombola communities in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, taking as its object of analysis the Campinho da Independência community, in the municipality of Paraty. Quilombolas are people descended from slaves who obtained the right to land from the Brazilian Federal Constitution, promulgated in 1988. Despite 35 years of the Federal Constitution, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, there are recognized —according to official data— 43 quilombola communities and only three communities had their lands titled and recognized by the Brazilian State. Here we seek to explain the role of each institution and how this community was granted title, the applicable legislation and the procedural developments for its title. Through documentary analysis of the processes, the opinions issued by State agencies and public agents were studied. It was found that state bureaucracies function, despite their institutional innovations, as administrative and legal instruments that reveal power relations and can inhibit and even interrupt access to land and territorial rights of the remaining quilombola communities. With this, we verified that the institutional slowness in this process was due to the lack of definition regarding the appropriate method of titling quilombola communities at that time, since there was still no regulation for such a procedure. |
