The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate if the hegemonic agricultural model in Brazil, agribusiness, promote the human right to adequate food or if it reproduces an colonial logic that hinders the implementation of this human right. For this, the first chapter sought to identify the relation between colonialism and hungry, from the understanding of Josué de Castros’s theory and his critics to Malthusianism, because of the fact that this is one of the main theories used by Imperialist powers to show hungry as an natural phenomenon and not as an result of colonials and oppressive social relations. The second chapter sought to investigate how the domination and exploration remains in the actual days, through the coloniality, essential element of modern/colonial world-system, that reproduces social and power practices which improve relations of domination and exploration based on natural reasons, supposedly. The focus is on the following aspects of coloniality: globalization, raciality, neo-Malthusianism and financialization of the world, showing how these are ways of, even today, oppressive relations be perpetuated and what are the impact of these pratices in food (in)security, mainly in the Third World. Finally, the third chapter sought to investigate about the hegemonic agricultural model, the agribusiness, searching the relation between its practice and the coloniality, identifying if it reproduces and colonial logic which hinders the implementation of human right to adequate food.
