Description
Summary:The Contemporary debate in Brazil about familiar agriculture shows us that rural workers redefine and generate alternatives to the produtivist model creating strategies of production and social reproduction. One of these strategies is the pluriactivity. Yet, in this context, young people living hostile social contexts to the familiar agriculture do not have many alternatives to remain (living ou inhabiting) and working in the countryside. This work analyses if this familiar agriculture is possible, in pluriactivity and modernity contexts, according to the point of view of rural young people.
