Abstract

We propose this research project to contribute to the debate on political participation and social change, with the object of study the manifestations of socio-territorial movements of the field in the state of São Paulo and public policies claimed in search of autonomy, for a better understanding of the issue agrarian and rural territorial development. We believe these actions within the process of struggle and earth, because besides claiming territories that materialize in rural settlements, movements also claim public policies aimed at developing the conquered territories. Using the Banco de Dados da Luta Pela Terra (DATALUTA), bibliographic sources, documentary and field work, we plan to conduct a study of the period 2000-2012, with the spatial area the state of São Paulo. The objective of this project is to understand the importance of peasant demonstrations as political participation of organized movements to claim, definition and implementation of public policies for the development of their territories and for social change.
