description The region of Santarém, in the State of Pará, suffers from the expansion of the agricultural capital of soybeans, due to a series of public and private actions aimed at the agroindustry, with a view to exporting the commodity. This set of actions is reflected in the different uses of the territory, by peasants and sojicultores, that start to dispute it and, consequently, they come into conflict. The concept of ethnogenesis has been used as an important analytical tool to understand this problem, which involves different interests and strategies for the use of the territory and natural resources, as well as all territorial actions and dynamics, among them the process of peasant resistance in one of the communities in conflict in the Santaren plateau, the Açaizal Community, in which it was verified that the dispute is not only for the right to use the land, but also for the preservation of a way of life.
