We investigate, in this work, the effectiveness of human rights of workers under capitalism, considering the experience of the Movement of Landless Rural Workers. We combine theory sources with the use of empirical research, through interviews with members of the human rights sector of the MST. From the epistemological point of view, we part from the dialectical-materialistic method. This study intents to contribute to human rights theory through the observation of the experiences of popular organizations, in this case by analyzing the standpoint of the MST about the possibility of effectiveness of human rights of workers under the capitalist system. To develop this reflection, the work is divided into three chapters. At first, we treat the history of human rights, considering the relationship between their development and the determinations of capitalist development. In the second chapter, we deal with the critics of human rights: the critics of its form, the critics of its effectiveness, and the critics of the practice on human rights. In the third chapter, finally, we present the history of the Landless Movement, the development of its human rights sector and we characterize its conception of human rights. We conclude, finally, that, on the struggle for land in Brazil, for MST, it is impossible to effective human rights of workers within a capitalist system. We conclude also that the Movement has developed a counter-hegemonic conception of human rights in its practice.
