Uma nova carne comida com os velhos garfos: a política neodesenvolvimentista do Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos (PAA) para a agricultura familiar solidária. 2018. 332 f. Tese (Doutorado em Geografia) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2018.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/9041This research has its methodological-theoretical basis in dialectical materialism and uses the Triangulation as investigational strategy. The main goal is to understand the dynamics in the relation between the Solidary Economy project and the Brazilian State during neo-developmental governments by an impact evaluation of the Food Acquisition Program (Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos – PAA) on associative family farming territories, considering the instrumentalization of their places and enterprises by the informational technical-scientific environment. For such, we analyze the Brazilian neo-developmental socio-economic and political scenario in the period from 2003 to 2016. Initially, there are the presidential terms of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (2003-2010), whose purposes were, among others, maintain the economic stabilization policy and face the social inequalities, being the non-salary occupation in solidary economy enterprises one of the strategies. Following, there are the presidential terms of Dilma Vana Rousseff (2011-2016) that, although with meaningful adjustments, carry on with this policy. In the degree that neo-developmental efforts influence the modeling of a policy for family farming through the PAA, it is possible to see, however, that when it comes to the execution old practices and instruments are not disentangled, supporting the (re)production of regional inequalities, especially because of the instrumentalization of their enterprises by the informational technical-scientific environment. This thesis is supported by the following expressions and directions: (i) although acknowledging the altruism in the principles and practices of solidary organizations, Solidary Economy has served the capitalism as an absorption space for the reserve army and, therefore, as a way of social control, and, being one of its expressions, the associative family farming reveals its contradictions; (ii) the performance of this social-developmental policy has “chicken flight autonomy”, that is, with meaningful oscillations and unsustainability, ends quickly, because in family farming, and predominantly, in the PAA, although resources are substantial in the beginning, they decrease in the end; (iii) the intersectoral and incremental models are not efficient in the PAA operation; (iv) in state and municipal partnerships, the Federal Government always acknowledges low adherence from managers; (v) financial resources tend to be better applied where informational technical-scientific knowledge is already developed; (vi) PAA resources are concentrated in richer and more articulated states; (vii) members of groupings from economically depressed regions have lower income and inferior quality of life conditions; (viii) when implementing and operating the PAA, entrepreneurs face difficult bureaucratic demands, unable to have a continuing and sufficient production; (ix) the improvement in farmers’ quality of life is the result of a set of public policies and not of PAA alone; (x) there are cooperatives well integrated in the market and others dependent on the program; (xi) the program Ater Mais Gestão (support-program of PAA and PNAE (Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar) [National School Food Program]) is not efficient and effective, once the investments are significant and the results are specific. Thus, it is possible to conclude that the social-developmental policy for social family farming through the PAA seems to be (from a Brechtian perspective) the “new meat eaten with old cutlery”, or, in other words, a new policy operated by old practices.application/pdfAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Agricultura familiarDesigualdade regionalEconomia solidáriaNeodesenvolvimentismoPolíticas públicasFamily farmingNeo-developmentalismPublic policyRegional inequalitySolidary economyCIENCIAS HUMANAS::GEOGRAFIATese
