Abstract:

This article analyzes the sociodemographic composition of the Indigenous population in Brazil in the 1991, 2000 and 2010 Demographic Censuses. A methodology is proposed that classifies households with Indigenous residents as “homogeneous” (all residents declared Indigenous), “mixed” with an Indigenous person in the category “responsible for the household” and mixed with a non-Indigenous person in the category “responsible for the household”. Descriptive and multivariate statistical analyzes were performed across different geographic and situational contexts. Regional and situation differences overlapped with differences by type of household and location, with better conditions in urban than rural areas, and in the Southeast and South regions, with the North being the region with the least access in general. Regional differences and differences between urban/rural areas were observed, highlighting better urban conditions and in the Southeast and South regions. These inequalities reflect fragmented public policies, economic pressures and deterritorialization processes, among other factors. The development of new techniques and critical debate are essential to understand and address racial inequalities in the country and promote public policies appropriate to indigenous peoples.
