Experiences of modernizing agriculture in Brazil have served as a support for the Mozambican government to propose substantial changes in its agricultural model and in the structure of its agrarian space. As in Brazil, Mozambique becomes a disputed territory to serve the expansion of the world agricultural frontier. In the specific case of Mozambique, the discourse of eliminating hunger, boosting the economy, increasing GDP - Gross Domestic Product, are corollaries of the geopolitical endeavor of large international corporations in the USA - United States of America, Japan, China and Brazil for the purposes modernizing. The work developed by Brazilian and Mozambican researchers and students, in view of this condition, is being built based on the following questions: why does the process of creating better living conditions require violent methods that erodes the collective land ownership regime? To what extent can the "modernizing intention" be assumed and justified as true? Fieldwork, survey of sources, organization of workshops in Mozambican Machambas, organization of symposia in Brazil and Mozambique feed the research and lead to reflections on the relationship between geopolitics and modernization of agriculture in Mozambique.

Las (re)existencias indigenas representan tanto los medios como el fin de la conservación de la sociobiodiversidad. Sus territorios y territorialidades tienen una visión del mundo que construye objetivamente prácticas mucho más consistentes con esta sociobiodiversidad que la modernización de los territorios, incluso en sus caracteristicas más "sostenibles". Los pueblos Karajá-Aruanã-Go, ubicados en el noroeste de Goiás, han sido objeto de ataques históricos secuenciales y consecuentes. Especialmente después de 1970, la transformación de la llanura del río Araguaia en territorio de grandes explotaciones ganaderas y la implementación del turismo en las playas del río, sumado a la fragmentación de sus lugares de vida, generaron una fuerte presión sobre sus tierras, en sus cultura, tu forma de vida y tu cuerpo. Esta presión há sido efectiva desde que la deforestación destinó la tierra a pastos; para la construcción de clubes, condominios y posadas a orillas del río en los límites urbanos; el uso intenso y depredador de las playas; los efectos catastróficos del turismo de sol y playa en la fauna de los ríos y, especialmente, la reducción de la biodiversidad. La investigación realizada por el subproyecto BIOTEK (Biodiversidad y biotecnología del Cerrado de Goiás) y desarrollado em torno al proyecto "Desarrollo territorial y sociobiodiversidad: perspectiva para el mundo del Cerrado" - CAPES - demuestran los efectos sobre la sociobiodiversidad de la siguiente manera: por un lado hay un proceso continuo de erosión genética; por otro lado, la invasión de la ciudad en los pueblos cambia el idioma, los costumbres y los gustos de la juventud; el régimen de creencias; la conexión con la ascendencia y la comida de los pueblos Karajá.

The research on the sertaneja sociobiodiversity of Goiás can offer a reflection of the subject, from a wide universe, with various possibilities, today rediscovered and revalued by the cultural and historical richness, by placing in emphasis the relationship between space and subject. With the objective of analyzing the existence of the sertanejo of Goiás as the essence of the country culture and the way of living in the Goiás hinterland, this work, by imbrating dialectically subject and space, demonstrates that the "Sertão" consists of the spatial organization that includes the economic, the political, the social and the cultural in the order of rurality. For this reason, the Sertão is the determinant of the socio-cultural codes of the Goiás tradition. For that, was made a bibliographical research, complemented by interviews based on orality, trying to evidence the existence of a society that, from its habits, reveals the art of existing, sometimes in a regime of cooperation, sometimes in social conflicts.
