Ways and paths of state of São Paulo rural syndicalism

Abstract

The article tries to understand the relationship between the rural trade union movement of the state of São Paulo and the ways of opposition and fight of country men in a privileged region from the point of view of agricultural modernization. It presents aids to strike back the thesis that the rural proletarianization took place linearly without confrontations and/or tensions and that São Paulo doesn't have tradition in the range of fights in the country.
