摘要:The paper presents an analysis of the collective mullet fishing in Honey Island from the theory of reciprocity in Temple (2003) and Sabourin (2009; 2011a; 2011b), as a basis for the observation of an empirical case in the coast of Paraná. The aim is to highlight the practices, relationships and reciprocity structures among fishermen analyzing its implications for development more sustainable local/territorial. It was found that even coexisting relations of reciprocity and exchange, there is a predominance of social and economic relations marked by the logic of reciprocity through collective fishing and these relationships contribute to material subsistence and social reproduction of these fishermen.
