Sumario: This work explores the possibilities of resistance and critique emergence of the populations impacted by hydropower projects and forms of violence contained in the practices of what is being called “Social Management” in such contexts. This form of management is approached as a government apparatus as in Foucault (1980), Deleuze (1991) and Dean (2010), composed by lines of visibility, enunciation, power and subjectivity for conducting the interaction among companies, the State and the impacted communities. The forms of critique and resistance are understood as elements of the apparatus’s subjectivity lines. And analyses of perceptions and manifestations of the affected populations emphasizing in their critical declarations to the process of displacement and resettlement is made, as well as to their sources of justification. Data are provided by documental analyses, ethnographic work and the previous experience of the researcher in the studied resettlement. A variety of discursive and non-discursive strategies to subvert the order promoted by the managerial rationality of the apparatus is evidenced.
