Abstract:
The construction of the Brazilian nation went through the period of slavery. Once it was abolished, black people were not included effectively in society. Since the end of the twentieth century, the claims of these groups have become frequent, which generated a compensatory policy, reflected in the legislative context. Therefore, the aim of this article is to examine the effectiveness of the right of these "quilombolas" communities to the titles of lands inhabited by them. To that end the proposed constitutional amendment 215/2000 will be analyzed.
Key words:
