This article examines a largely underexplored and non-obvious historical process: the interactions between the Portuguese imperial state and the emerging field of international indigenous law during the post-war period. It demonstrates how this process was shaped by contemporary dynamics of transformation, protection, and discrimination in relation to indigenous populations and their social, po-litical and physical environments. Although these processes were not directly or explicitly connected to environmental concerns, they reflected some of the logics that would later inform environmental actions and discourses at both local and international levels.
Este artigo versa sobre um processo histórico pouco explorado e que não se apresenta como óbvio: a saber, as interacções históricas que se estabeleceram entre o estado-império português e o direito indÃgena internacional, sobretudo nos anos pós-1945. Este artigo demon-stra como esse mesmo processo histórico foi marcado por dinâmicas coevas que visavam, em diferentes momentos, transformar, proteger ou discriminar populações indÃgenas na relação que estas estabeleciam com o seu meio social, polÃtico e fÃsico. Ainda que o conjunto de aspectos e acontecimentos tratados neste artigo não estivesse ligado a preocupações ambientais de forma directa ou explÃcita, era mar-cado por traços e lógicas comuns à queles que davam corpo a discursos e polÃticas que visavam a protecção ambiental, tanto a um nÃvel local como internacional.
