Abstract

In the early 1900s, artisanal fishermen in Brazil were enlisted in the navy, against their will, and organized into fishermen’s colonies. Until the 1950s, they remained under military domination and were content with some social benefits such as health services and schools for children. This dependency failed to create among the fishermen any desire to organize themselves and make their voices heard. Even as control of the fishermen’s colonies was turned over to civilian governments, there was no significant movement to organize.
