This monograph has as its starting point the analysis of the dichotomy between countryside and city in the Alberto Torres’ intellectual production. Torres was a journalist, politician and sociologist, and accompanied social changes that occurred in Rio de Janeiro at the turn of the nineteenth to the twentieth century. Under this condition, witnessed the decline of the fluminense farming and the rising urban industry. Astute observer and sagacious intellectual, the author eventually builded a project about the forming of the nation, one of whose pillars was supported on agrarianism as economic and social outlet for Brazil. In this research, we seek to highlight the contradictions and limits of agrarianism in the Torres’s intellectual production and at the same time, we seek to understand the force of these contradictions to the building of a national project.
