Licere, Belo Horizonte, v. 13, n. 2, p. 1-2, 2010.1981-3171http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/20690This study aimed at answering the following question: do aspects from the world of work transfer to the world of leisure? In order do so, the relation between nature and human beings was analyzed, especially through a specific adventurous body practice in nature – the mountaineering. This studyhas a qualitative character: its main purpose was to comprehend and describe a concrete social reality. The data collection was based on semi-structured interview. We could realize that the relations established in the work world disseminate to the leisure world in the group studied, which amplifies the typical work alienation in capitalist societies to other dimensions of human life; on the other hand, we also observed that, dialectically, the experiences performed in mountaineering generate new meanings and values to life, which disseminate themselves and positively “contaminate” the world of work.porAcesso AbertoAtividades de lazerLeisure activitiesNaturezaTrabalhoMontanhismoNatureWorkMoutaineeringArtigohttps://doi.org/10.35699/1981-3171.2010.811
