Abstract

This study enrolls the Agro-Environmental Law and proposes to analyze critically and to deconstruct the agribusiness paradigm that builds a process of domination by exclusion and inequality, such as unsustainability in agriculture. Firstly, it will be analyzed the process of consolidation of agribusiness as a dominant model of agriculture in Brazil and its social and environmental impacts, of which damages demand to find solution under the crisis of occidental knowledges paradigm – that it will studied later in this study –, to find alternatives to that paradigm, to be possible to build a new sustainability paradigm, that will be able to consider all kind of existence, biological and social. Then, it aims to ponder about the concept of sustainability legally imposed and where it fails and, then it is proposed a new concept and their effects to agriculture and to rural life. Eventually, agroecology will be proposed as a model of sustainable agriculture and a tangible way to reach social emancipation, plurality of knowledge and sustainability.
