BIG AREA: Ciências Humanas
AREA: História
SUMMARY:

The present work aims to analyze the participation of potiguares sertanejos as rubber soldiers, during the Second World War, as well as to understand the events that marked the early years of the 1940s and their reverberations in the backlands of Rio Grande do Sul: the project for the occupation of the Valley Amazon, the drought of 1942 and the war effort in the context of World War II. Thus, the sertanejos of Rio Grande do Norte appear, in this work, as central actors who found themselves inserted in all these events through national and international political actions. As it brings the potiguares and amazonian hinterlands as a spatial cut, the work has the bibliographical contribution of authors who discuss the concept of hinterland, to show how these spaces were interpreted until the 1940s, when they became the center of attention due to events already listed. As a time frame, the research was inserted between 1942 and 1946, as it addressed the entry of Brazil in the world conflict and the beginning of the rubber campaign, in addition to discussing the situation in which many Northeastern workers were post-war. For its composition, the work relied on the use of hemerographic sources, bibliographic material and official documents, which allowed us to conclude that the rubber campaign had not only the North American incentive, but the propaganda of the Brazilian government itself, which had pretensions to mobilize a large contingent of northeastern workers for the North region of the country, with the purpose of promoting the occupation and economic development of the Amazon Valley. The analysis of the material used also allowed to conclude that part of these workers experienced a situation of abandonment by the Brazilian government, a fact that ended up triggering the Rubber Commission of Inquiry.
