| Abstract | |
This work is dedicated to reflect about the resistance (contention action and speeches) to industrial model of agriculture and the genetically modified main crops of peasant women organized in collectives and social movements on Argentina and Brazil. Mainly the Social Studies of Science and Technology, seeking its interfaces with the gender studies and Feminisms, compose the disciplinary references used in the work. Sociological approaches were also used regarding collective action, social movements and social emancipation. The most relevant part of the empirical work consists of speeches obtained through interviews with militant peasant women. The interviews were obtained through the organization of three phases of the field research, consisting of trips to urban and rural localities in the two countries during the years 2010 and 2011. In these moments, it was performed interviews and moments of participant observation. As part of the results, it was inferred that the speeches of these peasant women promotes a synthesis of values found in feminist and environmentalist thinking and constituted a singular criticism to the hegemonic industrial agriculture model. In these speeches are present conceptions about food, seed, biodiversity, labor, gender. This singular criticism and epistemology construction by peasant¿s women could contribution to rethink theories on social emancipation and power (AU) | |
