CLACSO Working Group on Agricultural Work, Inequalities and Ruralities
Readers are familiar with the grand history of Brazilian agriculture, widely disseminated, even by the media. However, this collection focuses on a lesser-known story—a counterpoint to that one. A true story shaped by the people who produce the immense wealth of commodities exported to various countries around the world. Our primary intention is that this counterpoint be read and reflected upon by those who yearn for a more just society, one in which humanity can rise above the world of material things. A counterpoint that must not be consigned to social oblivion.
