Situação do trabalho análogo à escravidão: análise estatística espacial quanto à vulnerabilidade socioeconômica e à presença de territórios quilombolas em Minas Gerais (2003-2013)

Abstract

This study contrasted the municipalities of Minas Gerais with the records of residents rescued in a situation analogous to slavery between 2003 and 2013, using the records of workers rescued in conditions analogous to slavery by municipality (TRCE) and of the presence of workers rescued in the municipality (PTRM), with the presence of Quilombos Remnant Communities (CQRs) inserted in the municipalities of Minas Gerais. The working hypothesis is that the municipalities of Minas Gerais that have worse socioeconomic conditions and have quilombo remnant communities will have high errescued workes than the others, faciliting the enticement of these workers. We classifyed the municipalities as follows: (1) if whether or not they have CQRs; (2) with PTRM and without rescued workers and (3) municipalities that are part of the spatial grouping of TRCE and the others in the state. The results showed that the municipalities that exhibit the worst socioeconomic indicators have the highest rates of rescued workers, forming a clear spatial grouping of municipalities with high rates of rescued workers in the Triangulo North, Northwest and Vale do Mucuri. As municipalities that have CQRs also have high socioeconomic vulnerability, it is not possible to state whether the presence of CQRs is decisive to the presence of workers in conditions analogous to slavery. These results are important to direct the government's efforts to combat the enticement of workers who could potentially be nailed in conditions analogous to slavery.
