| Sammanfattning: | The sea is the stage for one of the most complex relationships in human experience;
the meeting possible through fishing between men and marine beings. Unlike the
opposition established between society and nature by the knowledge instituted in our
intellectual tradition, the sea is a space where men, technical artifacts and animals
form a collective. From the empirical experience with artisanal fishing collectives, it
was noticed the existence of the native game metaphor, whose content expresses a
system of relations that comprises the human-technical-animal triad, operationalized
through the mastery of a set of fishing techniques and respect for the rule for
predation (the use of techniques that do not totally eliminate the possibilities of
“victory” of marine beings). In this way, Playing with the fish expresses the
recognition of the capacity of agency and perception of marine animals, representing
a break with the opposition between subject-object. Knowing how to play for the
artisanal fishermen studied means concomitantly operationalizing what I
ethnographically called technical and moral-technical expertise, something that gives
fishermen social prestige in their group. However, the experience shared with the
interlocutors and the analysis of this experience showed that the technical processes
raise and engender specific relationships with the environment and other beings; for
example, the belief of artisanal fishermen in Caiçara do Norte (municipality located
on the north coast of Rio Grande do Norte) that industrial fishermen do not play with
fish, confirm the validity of this argument. In this sense, an ethnographic study of the
industrial fishing collective of Natal-RN was also undertaken, with special attention to
its labor processes, with the purpose of understanding the way in which expertise
and morals are also used in this social segment. From the above, the objective of this
study was to describe and analyze, from an anthropological perspective, the
technical processes used in the two fishing modalities in order to understand the
more general aspects of the relationship between humans, things and animals in the
segment. In order to achieve the objective, investment was made in the engagement
in the technical processes of both segments as a research method, and in an
ethnographic approach that takes into account the coexistence and cooperation
between human and non-human animals. It was concluded in this study that the
forms of ecological association between humans and marine beings are mediated
and transformed by the technical choices in each one of the fisheries, generating
perceptual configurations about the environment specific in each case. |
