Cooperation networks of family agriculture and local rural development in the Agreste region of Paraíba (Brazil)

Eric Sabourin, Paulo Federico Petersen, Luciano Marçal da Silveira

The work deals with the mobilization of the theory of reciprocity and the analysis of social and socio-technical networks for analysis and promotion of local and territorial dynamics, among individuals, collective and institutional actors. The theory of reciprocity allows to qualify the relationships and structuring interactions between actors, social groups and institutions, both in the real plane, as in the symbolic (language, discourse and learning) and imaginary (representations, ideologies). The sociotechnical networks, initially mobilized for the construction of innovation, the circulation of knowledge and resources, associate human actors, nonhuman entities: objects, devices. The paper deals about the application of these methods to the local rural development processes in the Agreste region of the State of Paraiba, in the Northeast of Brazil.
