TEDESCO, Anderson Luiz  e  BATTESTIN, Cláudia. A decolonial possibility to think about the constitution of the caboclo ethos in the Western Santa Catarina. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2022, vol.17, e2219415.  Epub 23-Fev-2022. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.1719415.012.

In this reflection, our hypothesis considers that the caboclos are remnants of an African matrix of thought in the West region of the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. It is about a history and philosophy problem that shows the constitution of a decolonial caboclo ethos of the Contestado. Therefore, we asume, in the methodological procedures, a bibliographic design, with an interpretative and qualitative approach. If we consider the ethos, for the Greeks (colonizers’ matrix), as the ontology itself, it is not possible for us to exclude or violate the traces of the ethos of the first communities in Western Santa Catarina, as they, the native peoples and the caboclos, are also characterized by the community spirit, equality and solidarity. In our result, we found that: a) the decolonial ethos characterized the essence in the communities of Western Santa Catarina; and b) the ethos corresponded to the constitution of the habits of the original communities, making their survival and temporal resistance impossible. Finally, the caboclo ethos was formed with the peoples who lived and resisted in the Western Santa Catarina, from the cultivation of ancestry and the practices of good living in their territoriality.
