Migrant sugarcane cutters in Paraná: daily practices and processes of territorialization in the context of precarious work
Main Article Content
Abstract
Starting from the perspective of Michel de Certeau in the study of daily life, the study seeks to understand how are the daily practices of territorialization of the ordinary man, represented by sugarcane workers from the Brazilian state of Alagoas, who migrate to work in precarious conditions in plantations in the state of Paraná. The research adopted the Life History method for data collection, conducting interviews with seven migrant workers. The analysis was based on the narratives of the interviewees, and through an analytical cut that sought to understand the historical context of life of the subjects, connecting the data collected to the theoretical framework in order to apprehend their daily actions of territorialization. The analysis allowed identifying the struggles in the daily life of these workers, whether at work, in the city or in the neighborhood, besides territorial divisions, with constant movements of approximations and distances, divergences and convergences. Thus, amid conformism and resistances, in the everyday life of these ordinary men, the formation of networks is a web of social relations, practices of convenience, tactics and strategies, allowing the re-signification of that space and the construction of the territorialization of these workers.
