For this purpose, the text focus the secular process of land’s concentration and the peasantry’s marginal conditions perpetrated by the dominant elites in order to relate it to the recent process characterized by the disenchantment towards the traditional representative institutions experienced by a broad segments of the population submitted to the globalization. Based in this background, the Landless Workers Movement as well as others social movements are eager to strength the mechanisms of participative democracy and also the modes of political action in Brazil and Latin America. O texto analisa o Movimento dos Trabalhadores sem Terra (MST) no Brasil, relacionando-o e comparando-o com outros movimentos contestatórios da ordem vigente na América Latina, ainda hegemonizada pela dinâmica neoliberal. Para isso, retoma o secular processo de concentração de terras e de marginalização das massas camponesas pelas elites dominantes para relacioná-lo com o recente processo de desencantamento com as instituições representativas tradicionais, vivenciado por amplas parcelas da população do subcontinente em face das conseqüências da globalização. Com esse pano de fundo, vislumbra no MST (e nos demais movimentos sociais que desafiaram os padrões de formulação de políticas no Brasil e em outros países da América Latina) não só um processo de fortalecimento da democracia participativa, mas uma mudança substancial nas formas de ação política no Brasil e na América Latina. 2008-08-12 2022-03-18T16:16:44Z 2022-03-18T16:16:44Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/perspectivas/article/view/985 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/60987 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/perspectivas/article/view/985/847 Copyright (c) 2008 Perspectivas: Revista de Ciências Sociais application/pdf Universidade Estadual Paulista / UNESP Perspectivas: Revista de Ciências Sociais; v. 32 (2007) 1984-0241 0101-3459
