A reforma agrária popular na pesquisa e produção do conhecimento do serviço social

Abstract

The present master's dissertation is based on the assumption that the arsenal of works from the Undergraduate and Postgraduate course of Social Work at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS) produced in the last decade of the 21st century brought an important cut, which places the expansion capitalism in the countryside via agribusiness, the land market, speculation and rent-seeking. Therefore, studies, research and knowledge production in the Brazilian Social Service have appropriated this debate, dialoguing with these categories, intersecting historical mediations: social classes, private property, land rent, the social issue and its expressions. In this direction, this dissertation aims to investigate scientific productions with a focus on popular agrarian reform between 2011-2021 in the light of the historical and dialectical materialist approach, whose mediations dialogue with analytical categories that extrapolate the appearance of the concrete reality (KOSIK, 2002). For this, we developed a bibliographic and documentary study of an exploratory quanti-qualitative nature guided by a script of questions previously elaborated from the questions presented in the research project. Therefore, based on the method of the critical social theory of totality, we apprehend and analyze the structure and dynamics of the object, “as it is in itself, in its real and effective existence, regardless of the researcher’s desires, aspirations and representations” , because theory is, for Marx, the ideal reproduction of the real movement of the object by the research subject (NETTO, 2011, p.20 and 21). Furthermore, the methodological paths adopted were: Mapping of TCCs and Dissertations produced at the undergraduate and graduate levels of the social service at UFS, whose clipping focuses on the critical debate about agrarian reform between 2011 and 2021; Secondary and complementary survey of bibliographic references of scientific articles, collections, reports of PIBIC∕2020-2021 that deal with the agrarian question and agrarian reform in the light of the Marxist/Marxian approach. Among the results obtained in the investigative and analytical path, we highlight: the tendency of deepening debates centered on discussions related to the agrarian question and agrarian reform under the tension of rhetorical disputes, in which the critical perspective assumed by the Brazilian social service builds possibilities for reflection on of market agrarian reform, rural business and speculative rent-seeking as strategic to capital accumulation. Still, it makes it possible to extrapolate the appearance of the analyses, whose tensions in the field of neoliberal policies tend to empty and lose the centrality of the policy agenda for workers who fight for access to land, feeding back the meaning and meaning that the Capitalist state has given the agrarian reform policy as a structuring basis is still very incipient, as well as the agrarian question. The research and analysis of the UFS Social Work dissertation works present an intrinsic relationship between the theoretical-methodological, ethical-political and technicaloperative dimensions, however, they required new research and discussions about land rent, the commodification of land and its consequences. multiple dimensions by the monopolization of the current stage of capitalist sociability.
