Title
Social Movements, Agrarian Change and the Contestation of ProSAVANA in Mozambique and Brazil
Abstract
In this study, we set out to examine three interrelated questions: To what extent has Brazilian cooperation in the agriculture sector contributed to agrarian transformation in Mozambique? How has Mozambican civil society, and in particular the União Nacional dos Camponeses (UNAC, National Peasants’ Union), responded
to the prospect of Brazilian agribusiness investments in the Nacala Corridor? And what effects has BrazilianMozambican agricultural development cooperation had
on the existing relations among Brazilian and Mozambican rural social movements, in particular UNAC and Brazil’s Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem Terra (MST, Landless
Rural Workers’ Movement) and Movimento dos Pequenos Agricultores (MPA, Movement of Small Farmers), as well as between these movements and other civil society groups?
