I dedicate this study to all the enslaved workers in the Brazilian Amazon region, who are without a voice, without rights and without dignity, and to those people who, like me, cannot omit themselves from this reality. I thank all those who have contributed in some way to make this project succeed. In special thanks to God, my beloved parents, Francisco and Mary, my beloved sister, Alice, my esteemed advisor, Prof. Dr. Enrique Amayo Zevallos and my dear uncle, Roberto.
