RUPTURAS E CONTINUIDADES CAMPONESAS NA AVICULTURA INTEGRADA DO MUNICÍPIO DE ANTA GORDA/RS.

Based on the concepts of rupture and continuity proposed by Wanderley (2003), the aim of this work was identify which are the peasant elements that remain current in the social characterization of the poultry creators linked to Integration System in Anta Gorda/RS, despite his intense modernization. The conclusions we arrived were that modernization has generated a set of breaks, among which stand the loss of autonomy typical of the peasantry, the increasing of individualism and the farmer subordination of the industry. On the other hand, there is a set of characteristics that keep reproducing according to the tradition, even in the context of modernity: the centrality of the family, the valuation of the community, among others.
