O direito à terra como um direito humano: a luta pela reforma agrária e o movimento de direitos humanos no Brasil

this article seeks to analyze, within the recent history of social movements that struggle for agrarian reform in brazil today, the build of the land rights as a human right. since the 1970s, the interaction between peasant movements, the progressive church and the transnational network of human rights has converged into this idea that the land rights are a human right, which not only has marked the character of the struggle for land in brazil, but has also influenced the way in which the human rights movement has been constructed in the country and how it has taken its place within the transnational network of human rights activism.
