O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar o curso de Pedagogia da Terra que foi ofertado pela Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Federal de Goiás nos anos de 2007 a 2011, entendendo ser este curso uma ação de fortalecimento dos pressupostos defendidos pelos movimentos sociais do campo em relação à garantia de direitos dos jovens do campo. A abordagem visa reiterar que a educação urbana não atende às especificidades e espacialidades educativas dos sujeitos do campo. Para tanto, se faz necessário uma prática pedagógica específica e contextualizada, visando assim fornecer condições de emancipação dos jovens campesinos. Conclui-se que ao longo dos anos houve avanços significativos no modelo de educação do campo, sendo que iniciativas como a do curso de Pedagogia da Terra (FE/UFG) vêm a fortalecer as práticas educativas e a cultura campesina, especialmente na região do centro-oeste brasileiro. Contudo, considera-se como necessário investigar os impactos sociais de tais ações pedagógicas dos concluintes do curso nos percursos formativos dos jovens que habitam o campo.Palavras-chave: Jovens; Pedagogia da Terra; Movimentos Sociais do Campo. ABSTRACT: This article aims to analyze the Pedagogy of the Earth course that was offered by the Faculty of Education of the Federal University of Goiás in the years 2007 to 2011, understanding that this course is an action to strengthen the assumptions defended by the social movements of the field in relation guarantee the rights of young people in the countryside. The approach aims to reiterate that urban education does not meet the specificities and educational spatiality of rural subjects. In order to do so, a specific pedagogical practice is necessary and contextualized, aiming to provide conditions for the emancipation of young peasants. It is concluded that over the years there have been significant advances in the field education model, and initiatives such as the Pedagogy of the Earth (FE / UFG) course have strengthened educational practices and peasant culture, especially in the Brazilian midwest. However, it is considered as necessary to investigate the social impacts of such pedagogical actions of the graduates of the course on the formative courses of the young people who live in the field.Keywords: Young; Pedagogy of the Earth; Social movements of the countryside.

Reflections on Rural Education cannot be separated from the social context of the struggle for land. Thus, Rural Education is not just pedagogical practice; it is territorialized in search of breaking barriers of latifundio, capital and ignorance. It emerges within the Landless Workers´ Movement (MST in Portuguese) and transcends the aspirations of the education movement for people who live in settlements and camps. In this perspective, this text aims to present the understanding of the institutionalization process of Rural Education by analyzing Pedagogical Course Projects from courses in an Undergraduate Degree in Rural Education. We start from the hypothesis that Field Education, when institutionalized and making it more available beyond the militancy of social movements, does not maintain the essence in which it was created. Analyses were made considering pedagogical, political and geographic dimensions. This research was designed through theoretical and documentary research. The analyses lead us to recognize the Undergraduate degree in Field Education as the most important territory of Rural Education, which, in turn, presents itself as a territory in constant dispute.

The notion that the Earth has entered a new epoch characterized by the ubiquity of anthropogenic change presents the social sciences with something of a paradox, namely, that the point at which we recognize our species to be a geologic force is also the moment where our assumed metaphysical privilege becomes untenable. Cultural geography continues to navigate this paradox in conceptually innovative ways through its engagements with materialist philosophies, more-than-human thinking and experimental modes of ontological enquiry. Drawing upon the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon, this article contributes to these timely debates by articulating the paradox of the Anthropocene in relation to technological processes. Simondon’s philosophy precedes the identification of the Anthropocene epoch by a number of decades, yet his insistence upon situating technology within an immanent field of material processes resonates with contemporary geographical concerns in a number of important ways. More specifically, Simondon’s conceptual vocabulary provides a means of framing our entanglements with technological processes without assuming a metaphysical distinction between human beings and the forces of nature. In this article, I show how Simondon’s concepts of individuation and transduction intersect with this technological problematic through his far-reaching critique of the ‘hylomorphic’ distinction between matter and form. Inspired by Simondon’s original account of the genesis of a clay brick, the article unfolds these conceptual challenges through two contrasting empirical encounters with 3D printing technologies. In doing so, my intention is to lend an affective consistency to Simondon’s problematic, and to do so in a way that captures the kinds of material mutations expressive of a particular technological moment.

Over the last few decades, Argentina and Latin America have undergone significant processes of social unrest and mobilization. Within the larger context of the various movements and dimensions where social mobilization unfolds, the territory has emerged as an increasingly relevant element for the interpretation of its dynamics, continuities, and transformations. Indeed, the spatialization of political production, which accompanied the processes of spatialization of production and the social life, caused a politicization of space that shaped the territory. Thus, processes developed whereby space becomes politicized and politics becomes territorialized. These features have shaped organizations and demonstrations often led by young people, which has given rise to territorially situated, generational political forms.

Este artículo parte del reconocimiento de la crisis ambiental y de humanidad a escala planetaria y derivadas de la modernidad. Aquí se corporizan la educación y los movimientos sociales como agentes de transformación. Pero no sólo ellos, también se visibiliza esa potencia transformadora en otros cuerpos: en una ciencia descolonizada, humanista e intercultural, en sistemas tecnológicos con la vida como centro y fin, en una ética que humanice en la dignidad y la solidaridad a las naciones, en una estética de la identidad intercultural en la poesía de vivir. La utopía -raíz, energía y sentido de la movilidad social- que se descubre en este documento es ser Humanidad en comunidad con la Tierra, en imaginar y construir identidad y autonomía cada nación y pueblo con y desde sus territorios y en cultivar una conciencia planetaria, amorosamente. Aquí se inscribe la Educación sin adjetivos, aquí hermanan los movimientos sociales, se descubren comunidad.

This article starts from the recognition of the environmental and humanity crisis on a planetary scale and derived from modernity. Here education and social movements are embodied as agents of transformation. But not only them, that transforming power is also visible in other bodies: in a decolonized, humanistic and intercultural science, in technological systems with life as a center and an end, in an ethic that humanizes dignity and solidarity for nations, in an aesthetic of intercultural identity in the poetry of living. The utopia - root, energy and sense of social mobility - that is discovered in this document is to be Humanity in community with the Earth, to imagine and build identity and autonomy every nation and people with and from its territories and to cultivate a planetary consciousness lovingly Here education is inscribed without adjectives, here the social movements come together, community is discovered.

Abstract This article examines the motivations of young Ukrainian immigrants to support the Euromaidan from abroad. Existing research has documented social movements within their national boundaries and the participation of young people in them. However, it has rarely examined the expansion of social movements beyond their national boundaries and the engagement of young immigrants in such movements. Drawing on a larger qualitative study, this article presents the findings about what motivated 24 young Ukrainian immigrants residing in the USA to support the Euromaidan movement of 2013–2014 and compares their motivations to those of the protestors in Ukraine. We argue that motivations of young Ukrainian immigrants to support the Euromaidan from abroad manifest themselves in symbolic or psychological causes. Our findings demonstrate that the individual motivations were driven by an ideological commitment to systemic change in Ukraine, manifested through young Ukrainian immigrants’ (1) desire to end injustice, (2) solidarity with fellow Ukrainians, (3) moral obligation to raise awareness among the US public, and, most prominently, (4) sense of agency to contribute to the long-awaited change in the homeland. Our findings also show that overall, the motivations of young Ukrainian immigrants to join the movement aligned with those of the protestors in Ukraine.

Este estudo tem por objetivo demonstrar como os movimentos sociais do campo no Brasil, em especial as experiências históricas do Movimento Sem-Terra - MST e Via Campesina têm contribuído para a construção do conceito de Bem Viver como alternativa à produção convencional de alimentos, visando à melhoria das condições de vida e da saúde das comunidades campesinas. O texto utiliza como metodologia a pesquisa documental nos acervos produzidos pelos dois coletivos dos movimentos sociais citados. O método de análises tem por base os princípios da agroecologia como foco exploratório das lacunas e contradições criadas pelos paradigmas convencionais de produção agrícola e o princípio educativo do trabalho, fortalecendo uma “pedagogia da terra”, que recupera e produz saberes a partir de práticas ao Bem Viver. Este estudio tiene por objetivo demostrar cómo los movimientos sociales del campo en Brasil, en especial las experiencias históricas del Movimiento Sin Tierra-MST y Vía Campesina, han contribuido a la construcción del concepto de Bien Vivir como alternativa a la producción convencional de alimentos, Mejora de las condiciones de vida y de la salud de las comunidades campesinas. El texto utiliza como metodología la investigación documental en los acervos producidos por los dos colectivos de los movimientos sociales citados. El método de análisis se basa en los principios de la agroecología como foco exploratorio de las lagunas y contradicciones creadas por los paradigmas convencionales de producción agrícola y el principio educativo del trabajo, fortaleciendo una "pedagogía de la tierra", que recupera y produce saber a partir de prácticas al desarrollo Bien Vivir. This study aims to demonstrate how the social movements of the countryside in Brazil, especially the historical experiences of the Landless Movement - MST and Via Campesina, have contributed to the construction of the concept of Well Living as an alternative to conventional food production, aiming at the improving the living conditions and health of peasant communities. The text uses documental research as a methodology in the collections produced by the two collectives of the mentioned social movements. The method of analysis is based on the principles of agroecology as an exploratory focus of the gaps and contradictions created by the conventional paradigms of agricultural production and the educational principle of work, strengthening a "pedagogy of the earth", which recovers and produces knowledge from practices to Well live.

O presente artigo intenta discutir a Educação do Campo como paradigma epistemológico, que tem apresentado, na contemporaneidade, certo distanciamento das raízes marxistas na mesma medida que intensifica o diálogo, em fundamento e método, com a agenda pós-moderna. Nesse sentido, buscar-se-á debater a materialidade deste processo e as contradições essenciais que compõem o lugar da Educação do Campo, como constructo coletivo originado dos movimentos sociais, em uma suposta construção de um projeto societal que tem seu caminho atual direcionado por certo ecletismo teórico que diverge substancialmente do conteúdo de classe. Também objetiva debater acerca do potencial do ensino de História no contexto da Educação do Campo como uma das formas de superação da agenda pós-moderna a partir da produção de uma narrativa histórica contra-hegemônica capaz de aglutinar a memória dos grupos postos à margem da História oficial.Palavras-chave: Educação do Campo; Epistemologia; Pós-modernidade; Ensino de História. ABSTRACT: The presente article aims to discuss the education field as an epistemological paradigma that has introduced in contemporaneity, certain detachment from the marxism roots, on the same extent which intensifies the dialog in footing and method, as a Postmodern agenda. Likewise, must be sought to debate materiality of this process and the main contradictions that compose the position of the Field Education, as collective constructo originated from the social movements, in a supposed construction of a social project that has its current way directed for certain theoretical eclecticism that substantially diverges from the class content.  Also aims to debate regarding the teaching of History potential on the context of education Field as one of the overcoming ways of the postmodern agenda from the production of a historical against-hegemony narrative capable of agglutinate the memory of the groups located on the official history shore.Keywords: Field Education; Epistemology; Postmodernity; Teaching of History.

Visual methods are a popular way of engaging children and young people in research. Their growth comes out of a desire to make research practice more appropriate and meaningful to them. The auteur approach emphasises the need to explore with young participants why they produce the images they do, so that adult researchers do not impose their own readings. This article, while recognising the value of such visual techniques, argues that their benefit is not that they are more age appropriate, or that they are more authentic. Instead it lies in their capacity to display the social influences on how participants, of any age, represent themselves. The article does so through discussion of an Economic and Social Research Council research project, which made use of visual and other creative methods, undertaken in the UK with disabled young people. The research involved narrative and photo elicitation interviews, the production of photo journals, and creative practice workshops aimed at making representational artefacts. Through analysing the photography, the journals and interviews the article examines what it was research participants sought to capture and also what influenced the types of photographs they gathered and the type of person they wanted to represent. We argue that they aimed to counter negative representations of disability by presenting themselves as happy, active and independent, in doing so they drew from broader visual iconography that values certain kinds of disabled subject, while disvaluing others.

Based on the theory of social change, cultural evolution, and human development, we propose a mechanism whereby increased danger in society causes predictable shifts in valued forms of intelligence: 1. Practical intelligence rises in value relative to abstract intelligence; and 2. social intelligence shifts from measuring how well individuals can negotiate the social world to achieve their personal aims to measuring how well they can do so to achieve group aims. We document these shifts during the COVID-19 pandemic and argue that they led to an increase in the size and strength of social movements.
