This text discusses capitalism in indigenous villages: repercussions for the Baniwa people's fishing, hunting and eating habits. The aim is to present contemporary situations related to technical preferences and industrialized fishing and hunting materials, land management and the consumption of industrialized food in villages. The study was based on the hypothesis that in recent decades, Baniwa communities have faced the strong and inevitable growth and expansion of capitalism associated with the intensification of interethnic relations. Its impacts on traditional ways of subsistence and territorial management are equally strong and growing.
