Associaçoes comunitárias do meio rural : Um estudo de caso no centro oeste de Minas Gerais

This paper examines the association in a rural mining town in Brazil. The results belong to a master dissertationin Rural Extension on membership organizations and public policies for rural areas aiming to identify the roles performed by membership organizations, the reasons that explained their formation and their relationship with policy making for rural areas in the case studied. It is a case study, for which interviews were conducted with representatives of the organizations in order to deepen into the issues related to their historical, the roles they play and how and whether they participate in development project proposals.

Proceso de institucionalización de la agricultura familiar y nuevo referencial para el desarrollo rural en la Argentina

Este artículo pone en relieve las ideas y los intereses políticos y económicos que condujeron a la reciente institucionalización de la agricultura familiar en la Argentina. Este sector, que fue motor de la primera agriculturización de la Argentina, había perdido toda representación a partir de la centralidad que tuvo el desarrollo tecnológico desde mediados de los años '70. Se analiza el proceso que relegitimó esta categoría socio-política y productiva y se presentan los dispositivos que muestran la consecuente transformación de la acción pública. El paso de una política social y paliativa hacia una políticade sectorización de la agricultura familiar refleja la transformación del referencial de desarrollo rural y las nuevas representaciones del sector agrícola en la Argentina y más ampliamente en el Cono Sur. Así, se reconstituye una representación de la agricultura familiar que identifica y reconoce la dimensión multifuncional de su actividad productiva. Esto conduce a una fragmentación del sector agrícola en dos referenciales: uno centrado en la agricultura familiar y otro centrado en la agricultura empresarial.

Del rural agrario al rural periurbano: instrumentos de desarrollo rural en la comarca de Torrijos (Toledo)

En los últimos años, una de las líneas de investigación que ha suscitado interés en las ciencias sociales es el estudio de la transformación de los territorios. La presente Tesis Doctoral se enmarca dentro de este campo de investigación, utilizando en el análisis los Programas de Desarrollo Rural fruto de la política europea y su aplicación sobre un territorio específico como es la comarca de Torrijos en la provincia de Toledo (España). El objeto de estudio es el proceso de transformación que ha tenido lugar en su ruralidad desde los años noventa del pasado siglo hasta ahora, de manera a aportar elementos al proceso de periurbanización que ha acontecido. Se toma como punto de partida el estudio de la caracterización del medio rural, y de la periurbanización, se repasa la evolución histórica de la política comunitaria de desarrollo rural en un marco teórico, para a continuación centrarnos en el análisis del PDR de Castilla la Mancha 2007-2013 y analizar por un lado, las medidas que se están aplicando en la comarca objeto de estudio, así como el papel específico del Grupo de Desarrollo Rural Castillos de Medio Tajo más focalizado en lo local, por otro. Para el desarrollo de esta tesis, la metodología de investigación empleada ha sido mixta, además del análisis estadístico documental en una primera etapa junto con el estudio minucioso de las medidas del PDR 2007-2013, se ha realizado una investigación empírica basada en entrevistas a diferentes agentes conocedores de la realidad de la comarca, ampliando la recogida de datos primarios con la observación participante, por la vinculación directa con este territorio. El análisis de todo el material recogido nos ha permitido contrastar una serie de hipótesis planteadas y obtener resultados para comprender el proceso de transformación. Así, si bien la proximidad al gran núcleo urbano de Madrid ha conseguido una mejora en la calidad de vida de sus habitantes, la aplicación de las políticas de desarrollo rural no ha conseguido diversificar la economía de esta comarca, por un lado los PDR son demasiado genéricos para responder a especificidades y realidades locales tan diferentes en la Comunidad de Castilla la Mancha, por otro son Programas atemporales que si bien obedecen a una programación dentro de un período, los efectos en la economía adquieren visibilidad (positiva o negativa) en una etapa posterior. En cuando a la acción de los GDR como herramientas de participación local, se observa que su actividad está relacionada con las prioridades de las corporaciones locales, manteniendo la mirada más sobre el rural agrario que fue que en el rural periurbano que acontece. ABSTRACT In the last years one of the lines of research that has caused interest in the social sciences is the study of the transformation of the territories. The present Doctoral Thesis stands within this field of investigation, using in its analysis the Programs of Rural Development product of the European Politics and their application on a specific territory such as the region of Torrijos in the province of Toledo (Spain).The object of the study is the process of transformation that its rural area has undergone since the 1990s until now, so that it adds elements to the development that has taken place there. The study of the characteristics and development of the rural area is taken as a starting point and the historical evolution of the community politics of rural development in a theoretical framework revised, to focus later on the analyses of the PDR of Castilla la Mancha.2007-2013 and to analyze on the one hand the measures that are being applied in the region object of study and on the other hand the specific paper of the Group of Rural Development “Castillos de Medio Tajo”, more focused on the local aspects. For the development of this thesis, the methodology of investigation that has been used has considered two aspects, besides the statistical documentary analyses in a first stage together with the meticulous study of the measures of the PDR 2007- 2013, an empirical investigation based on interviews to different agents who know the reality of the region has been done extending the collection of primary information to the observation of those who participate directly in this investigation. The analysis of all the material has allowed us to confirm a series of raised hypotheses and to obtain results to understand the process of transformation. Thus, although the proximity to the great urban core of Madrid has given an improvement in the quality of life of its habitants, the application of the policies of rural development has not managed to diversify the economy of this area. On the one hand, the PDR is too generic to answer to specifities and local realities so different in the community of Castilla la Mancha, on the other hand they are atemporal programmes that although they obey a programming within a period, their effects in the economy acquire visibility (positive or negative) in a later stage .As for the action of the GDR as tools of local participation, it is observed that their activity is related to the priorities of the local corporations, focusing more on the agrarian rural aspect than on the peri-urban rural it is now.
