Book Description
This book brings together a selection of theoretical reflections, empirical researches and professional experiences to showcase the increasing production of psychological studies in rural contexts developed in Latin America in recent years. Psychology’s tradition of science and eminently urban profession has produced a void of reflections and approaches on important actors of the societies that constitute their existence in rural contexts and in relation – whether of integration, conflicts and contradictions – with urban agents. But a new generation of psychologists are turning their attention to rural contexts, especially in Latin America. This volume aims to present a selection of these psychological studies and interventions developed in rural contexts from a psychosocial and interdisciplinary perspective, developed together with various social actors who live and work in rural spaces, that have an important relationship with land and nature both in terms of the elaboration of their history, the production of their subjectivities and identity ties with the territory, and the engagement in struggles for the right to land and for public policies that guarantee access to education and health services, technical assistance and infrastructure for its working activities. The book is divided in five parts, each one dedicated to a dimension of psychosocial studies and interventions in rural contexts: theoretical approaches; mental health and rural populations; social movements, communities and resistance practices; gender relations and subjectivation processes; and environment and sustainability. Chapters in each axis prioritize reports of experiences and research conducted with participatory approaches, producing new perspectives and reflections that contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of psychology, both regionally and globally.

Book Description
O segundo volume do livro Reflexões sobre Meio Ambiente e Desenvolvimento Rural representa uma continuidade de divulgação da produção acadêmica-intelectual realizada no âmbito do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Meio Ambiente e Desenvolvimento Rural (PPG-Mader), da Faculdade UnB Planaltina (FUP). A partir das pesquisas e dissertações produzidas em coautoria entre docentes e discentes, a coletânea busca exercitar a interdisciplinaridade e a cooperação acadêmica, analisando criticamente dimensões e desafios do desenvolvimento rural e suas relações com a natureza. O PPG-Mader tem como objetivo contribuir para a construção de conhecimento crítico e promoção do desenvolvimento rural sustentável, por meio da qualificação e formação, em nível de mestrado, de pesquisadores(as), docentes e profissionais capazes de organizar, fomentar e propor caminhos estratégicos para a busca interdisciplinar e intersetorial de soluções aos problemas ambientais. As três linhas de pesquisa (Desenvolvimento Rural Sustentável e Sociobiodiversidade; Políticas Públicas para o Meio Ambiente e o Campo; e Avaliação Socioambiental e Agrária) fomentam estudos críticos, buscando compreender e discutir soluções a problemas resultantes de processos predatórios de expansão da fronteira agrícola, especialmente no Cerrado e na Amazônia brasileiros. Cabe destacar que o PPG-Mader, além de ter formado mais de 70 mestres, tem se destacado na formalização de parcerias com instituições públicas e movimentos sociais. Os 10 capítulos desta coletânea analisam o desenvolvimento rural brasileiro e suas inter-relações com o meio ambiente. Alguns dos temas desta rica coletânea incluem: financeirização e mercantilização da terra e dos bens da natureza; sociobiodiversidade; agroextrativismo; transição agroecológica; e políticas públicas voltadas para a conservação ambiental e o desenvolvimento rural sustentável. A partir de pesquisas sobre a gestão dos recursos naturais, agrobiodiversidade e práticas produtivas sustentáveis, o conjunto de trabalhos que compõem a presente coletânea representa uma contribuição acadêmica para as famílias rurais que lutam para sobreviver com dignidade e com amparo legal, tecnológico e institucional. Muito ainda há de ser feito para garantir o protagonismo dos povos do campo que estão à margem do modelo agroexportador capitalista dos grandes conglomerados transnacionais, mas é importante construir um novo caminho, mais democrático, justo e equânime.
