Abstract
- The rural world in Latin America provides today an interesting scenery of social, economic and cultural transformations due to globalization. This process reflects on heterogeneous constitution processes of social subjects in the rural world. Therefore these processes can no longer be studied on the basis of conceptual frameworks that lie in urban and rural dichotomy. The rural question opens an encouraging space of debate that allows the discussion of theoretical categories and methodological tools, traditionally used to intervene in the rural world. In this paper we concentrated our reflection in the organization of domestic labour between impoverished rural producers that must incorporate non agrarian practices as a way to guarantee their social reproduction. We believe that in the rural development studies some obstacles are being experienced when trying to analyze the heterogeneity which characterizes the constitution processes of this "rural" social subjects. This paper propose a case study conformed by small rural producers that participates in a community forestry project carried out by an NGO in Formosa province, in Argentina. This allowed us to evidence the existing tensions, between a "domestic" and a "technical" logic in the practices and representations that are at stake in the workforce organization of this groups activities and their role in the construction of a "domestic productive project" of this units.
