Popis: This chapter analyzes children and young people’s participation in one of the country’s (and indeed, for some, the world’s) key contemporary social movements: the Movimento Nacional dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra — MST (the Movement of Landless Workers). According to Carter ‘the MST has 1,14 million of members, more than 2,000 camps, 1,800 schools, a national school for higher education, a number of media outlets, 161 cooperatives and 140 agro-industries’ (2009, p. 38).
