The present review is intended to present the paradidactic work “Amazônias in contemporary times: between diversities and adversities”, published in 2017 by Editora Mórula and organized by Jane Felipe Beltrão, anthropologist and historian, researcher at the Nucleus of High Studies of the Amazon - NAEA / UFPA and CNPq and, Paula Mendes Lacerda, social scientist and anthropologist at UERJ. The book is a collection of 16 chapters and is one of the results of the project “Heritage, Sociocultural Diversity, Human Rights and Public Policies in Contemporary Amazonia” approved in the public call MCTI / CNPq / MEC / Capes-Casadinho / PROCAD, coordinated by Jane Felipe Beltrão (PPGA / UFPA) and vice coordinated by Antonio Carlos de Souza Lima (PPGAS / MN / UFRJ), discusses issues related to the preservation of cultural heritage in contexts of confrontation, traditional territories, landscapes, bodies and objects that gain importance in identity negotiations ( ethnic, racial, sexual and gender) and rights to difference, at the same time that public policies reveal difficulties in the management of a multicultural society in the context of the Amazon Region. The methodology used by the authors is based on bibliographic research carried out in the review that studied collectivities and Amazonian spaces, from a decolonial perspective. The study concluded by the need for knowledge and respect for indigenous peoples and ethnically different communities in order to guarantee their rights.
