Vozes da terra: o diálogo como tática para a construção de relações em rede

Abstract

The constants struggles to be seen, associated to economic, social and political dynamics, have shown to social movements the need to rethink practices face the task of mobilizing. In times of actions that occur in an articulated network, communication may be a key to the understanding of issues related to visibility and representation, and related to ability to dialogue or not on the differences. Therefore, this research is the product of an investigation that purports to understand how far dialogue appears as tactic to build relationships between social movements that are articulated in a network, more specifically between Movimento dos trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra (MST) organization and and other members of Rede Justiça nos Trilhos articulation. Launched as international campaign, this network is a articulation of social movements, associations and citizens that aims to charge from Vale a fair compensation for the damages caused to the environment and to populations living in areas traversed by Estrada de Ferro dos Carajás. Among the municipalities in the states of Pará and Maranhão crossed by railroad is Açailândia, is taken by the articulation as an emblematic due to deep degradation and the problems faced by their communities. Making use of cartography as a method of intervention research, in Açailândia were conducted two field experiments that will culminate in reflections on three major theoretical categories of analysis: space, dialogism and network.
