Abstract:
This work has as goal analyzing discursive changes regarding to the role played by Algaroba in solving
problems of semi-Arid area and also referred to different public policies linked directly or indirectly to
dissemination or eradication of the species of Paraiba’s Cariri. We also analyzed ways in which the Algaroba
and its derived products integrate contemporary economic dynamics. We chose as methodological strategy
to analyze what we called figuration dynamic analyzing individual and collective trajectories. We described
strategies adopted by different actors who produce and live in areas benefited with Algaroba cultivation in
the rural area of Sumé. We concluded that interaction processes between individuals and groups as much
as environmental changes due to those processes produced unplanned results.
