This article is the result of a research developed in the Salvador Allende settlement, in the municipality of Porangatu-GO, Brazil. during the years 2019 and 2020, which analysed the effects of urban schooling processes for adolescents and young people living in rural áreas. The objective is to reflect on how the urban schooling of these social actors, who graduated from schools, made ruptures cultural effects in the production of meanings as a result of the urban experience. This rupture, in turn, produced an emptying of adolescents and young people from rural spaces, interfering in the living systems of the peasantry, replacing it with an urban rationality, directly impacting the family social reproduction of these settlers. As heirs who refuse to inherit the land, the adolescents and young people who have egresses do not want to live in the countryside, expanding the historical exodus from the countryside, impacting from peasant production systems to social movements of rural struggles. This generational symbolic disjunction has urban schooling as its locus of production. The research methodology followed two paths: literature review and application of questionnaires with young people from urban schools that serve the rural population.
