A IDEOLOGIA DO MST NA LUTA PELA REFORMA AGRÁRIA NO BRASIL

Abstract

In this work the authors seek to unravel the meaning of the ideology of one of the most important social movements in Latin American scenario: the Movimento dos Trabalhadores sem Terra (MST). From the analysis of interviews with key leaders of the movement was possible to reconstruct its history from its origins as a local movement and a single claim (land reform) to a movement of national character with a broad view. Today the struggle for democratization of Brazilian society is its main claim that not only overcomes the struggle for agrarian reform, but the subordinates.
