Resumo: This paper discusses the socio-environmental dynamics of the modern sugarcane farming. The article develops a concrete analysis of the agribusiness phenomenon, rescuing the significant relationships that give it concrete meaning - i.e., that give it a comprehensive position within the unity of the diverse. To this end, the paper examines the dimensions involved in the exploitation of social labor and natural resources within this phenomenon - emphasizing the region of Ribeirão Preto, in the interior of São Paulo state. The study concludes that: a) the authoritarian relations that constitute the agribusiness phenomenon are in line with those described by M. Weber in his interpretation of the Junker capitalism in Germany; and b) it is necessary to articulate the social and environmental spheres in the analysis of the accumulation processes in the agricultural field, revealing the material and symbolic dimensions that support the conservative modernization represented by the agribusiness in Brazil.

O texto desenvolve uma análise concreta do fenômeno do agronegócio, resgatando as relações significativas que lhe dão sentido concreto - isto é, que lhe conferem posição compreensiva na unidade do diverso. Para tanto, são abordadas as dimensões de exploração do trabalho social e dos recursos naturais no âmbito deste fenômeno - com ênfase no caso da região de Ribeirão Preto, interior do Estado de São Paulo. As conclusões do estudo indicam: a) as relações autoritárias que compõem o fenômeno estudado, próximas daquelas descritas por M. Weber em sua interpretação do capitalismo Junker alemão e; b) a necessidade de articulação das esferas social e ambiental nas análises dos processos de acumulação no campo, desvendando as dimensões materiais e simbólicas que amparam a modernização conservadora representada pelo agronegócio no Brasil.Programa de Pós-Graduação em Sociologia da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul2010-07-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/sociologias/article/view/14968SOCIOLOGIAS; No. 24 (2010): Public Policies and CitizenshipSOCIOLOGIAS; Núm. 24 (2010): Políticas Públicas e CidadaniaSociologias; n. 24 (2010): Políticas Públicas e Cidadania1807-03371517-4522reponame:Sociologias (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/sociologias/article/view/14968/8789Copyright (c) 2019 Maria Aparecida Moraes Silva, Rodrigo Constante Martinsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoraes Silva, Maria AparecidaMartins, Rodrigo Constante2011-08-02T19:34:59Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/14968Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/sociologiasPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/sociologias/oai||revsoc@ufrgs.br1807-03371517-4522opendoar:2011-08-02T19:34:59Sociologias (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
