decolonizing and racializing the agrarian space brazilian

Abstract

This article aims to present a brief theoretical-critical analysis of the production of agrarian space in Brazil through a decolonial and racializing discussion that involves the premise of the existence of a historical denial of the right to land to black populations. I seek to build an understanding based on historicity using the theorists who worked to understand coloniality as a process of legitimizing hegemonic structures in which it imposed a model of civilization in the world and in spaces that denied rights to non-white populations. The study is divided into three parts. The first introduces the study proposal through the debate on the construction of race as an instrument of historical domination. In the second part, I present a brief bibliography pertaining to the problem of the poorly resolved agrarian issue in the country and how the concentration of land was inserted as one of the origins of racial inequalities, while the last one presents an analysis of the profile of rural workers in Brazil from the perspective racial and gender.
