Abstract

Traditional peoples as subjects of law are on the agenda of important discussions on the agenda of social policies in Brazil. From the Constitution of 1988, began the process ofextending social protection to the remnants of Quilombo communities. This fact led tosome analyzes that have focused their access to collective rights, including the right to the territories titrated, the source of their social reproduction, cultural and material. Alsodeveloped were important considerations concerning the access of these communities tosocial security policies. Our research fits into this framework of studies and has as its object the wider policies of social protection for older people belonging to the remnants of Quilombo communities. In that sense, this paper aims to understand the access of seniorsto non-contributory benefits of Social Security (retirement rural and special insured) and the benefit of continued provision, pertaining to social welfare policies. To do so, throughliterature, direct observation and semi-structured interviews, we trace the path taken byelderly Maroons for access to social protection in cross-field between the Pension andWelfare. Our study is the locus of Lapinha Quilombo, located in the town of Matias Cardoso, north of the state of Minas Gerais.
