RIEIRO CASTINEIRA, Anabel  and  KARAGEUZIAN, Gonzalo. Agroecología y disputas sobre el desarrollo rural en Uruguay. Mundo agrar. [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.47, pp.147-147. ISSN 1515-5994.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/15155994e147.

The main objective will be to present empirical information about the history and current practices of the Uruguayan Agroecological Network, providing possible interpretations from the approach of rural social antagonisms. This is a non-experimental cross-sectional case study, with triangulation of methods (qualitative and quantitative) and use of three data collection techniques: plenary observation, collective interviews and self-administered survey. The results allow us to conclude that, in recent years, local frames of production, distribution and consumption of agroecological foods were being set up in Uruguay, which, even in a precarious way, support practices and narratives of resistance to the hegemonic model.

Keywords : Agroecology; Rural development; Solidarity economy; Hegemony; Uruguay.
