Resumo: |
This work problematizes the experiences of a large number of workers, and the multiple relations they establish when inserted in coffee farm work in the region of Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba. Furthermore, the work seeks reflective thinking about the new work relations which have been emerging from the Brazilian rural area in the last three decades, and which are due to general social transformations which impact the ways of working and living of a huge number of men and women from the rural areas of this country. This study focused on the history of groups of men and women who dwell in the region of Monte Santo Bahia and who have been traveling to work on the coffee farms in the region of Cerrado Mineiro for at least fifteen years between the months of May and September. The research has led us to reveal how they are recruited, how they organize themselves in groups, how they live in precarious housing, as well as which networks they establish in order to compose their groups. The study has allowed a better understanding of the region which grows coffee, the strategies elaborated by the producers/employers in order to recruit the workers, among others. Methodologically, several other questions regarding the values and the ways of living of the individuals have aroused not only in their work relations in the farms, but also in their region of origin. This was possible due to the analysis of workers narratives, and their statements. Hence, it was necessary to understand the area where the subjects originally came from. When interviewing the relatives, friends and the coffee farm workers themselves, as well analyzing their narratives, demanded new effort in order to understand the logic which guides the lives of these subjects, their options, their dialogues, their motivation, and their insertion in this reality. In time, I came to observe a culture set with aspects of their histories which do not start with their moving, but permeate their strategies and understandings of the world, in which the movement of going from one place to another is only another of their moments and struggles. This line of research has allowed us to problematize some notions of migration, or the movement of groups of individuals from one place to another. When I visited the region of Monte Santo, in Bahia, I understood part of this history and the dispute among men, women, small farmers, dwellers from small properties in the country and small towns in the countryside, who evaluate and analyze possibilities in the search for a better life which does not mean leaving their hometowns |
