Résumé anglais The New Pioneer Fringes in Brazilian Amazonia. The Araguaia Valley. The opening of the Transamazonian Road symbolizes the policy of Amazonia's integration started by President Medici in 1970. Since 1974, more "realistic" motivations follow the ideological action that was required by the political conjuncture in the years 1 968- 1970. Actually, the role of the Amazonian undertaking is nowadays to reinforce the development of agrarian capitalism. The study of the problems ensuing from colonization in the Araguaia Valley points out the conflicts rising today between the new structures — some sophisticated sort of a penetration process which was initiated a long time ago by the Paulist businessmen — and the forms of rural economy that several generations of "Nordestin" poor migrants had settled from place to place.
