Conhecimentos enraizados como ferramenta de luta e resistência camponesa à sociedade da reprodução.

Abstract

The Doctoral thesis: Knowledge rooted as a tool of struggle and peasant resistance to the reproduction society debates the relationship between School and Life, where the teaching action seeks to mainstream the knowledge historically accumulated by humanity and the experiences developed there. The aim of this thesis is to identify, analyze and understand how the knowledge of the way of production of the existence of the peasants of the Renascer Settlement in Canguçu-RS is worked at the Oziel Alves Pereira School and how it contributes to the elaboration of new syntheses, new knowledge. The choice of methodology: Participatory Action Research, as a process of elaborating science for education, occurs through the recognition that allows us the permanent experience of leading the participating subjects to elaborate an analysis and critical understanding of the actions they develop. I took as a challenge to include the Investigation Participatory Action the theme of Permanence, of continuity, taking into consideration the becoming history of the subjects. The work is divided in two parts: in the first one, an initial immersion with the peasants is rescued, where we seek to analyze the findings as well as the explicit challenges that require a continuity of the research. In the second part of the text, based on what was dealt with in the first part, we debate how the production of other knowledge that roots the humanization process of the subjects of a given totality is rooted. The Participatory Action Research based on Orlando Fals Borda and Carlos Rodrigues Brandão points out possibilities for a new and rooted knowledge. It is sought, sustained in Paulo Freire and Karl Marx, to establish the relation of the struggle and the production with the rooted knowledge. The struggle for a school drenched in its historical context, which does not give up the guiding principles of the Education of the Field, is to understand and construct the Popular Agrarian Reform with the wide distribution of land for those who live and work in it, producing healthy food and environmentally sustainable for all society, in addition to the elaboration of the knowledge that has agroecology as the technological matrix and that the development of agriculture is based on the principles of agrobiodiversity and food sovereignty as a form of resistance, understood as a possibility to change the world.
