Supervised internship in geography: considerations about the contents relation field-city and its consequences in the brazilian geographical space

Abstract

Capitalism assumes, in Brazil, its monopoly phase from the 1940s, especially after the 1960s, when the “Green Revolution” spreads. In the face of green packages that encompassed the massive entry of heavy machinery and the use of genetically modified seeds and animals, the country becomes the scene of rapid and intense transformations both in rural and urban spaces. In the meantime, the present work is a product of the Teaching Project presented as a partial requirement to pass the Supervised Internship in Geography Teaching III subject, from the Department of Geography, Campus Prof. Alberto Carvalho, from the Federal University of Sergipe. The project was directed to students of the 7th Year of Elementary School at Estadual Prof. Nestor Carvalho Lima School, located in the city of Itabaiana-SE. The objective of this work was to analyze the rural-city relationship and its unfolding in the geographic space from the Green Revolution (1960). The method of analysis of this research was the dialectical historical materialism, with the purpose of bringing to light the contradictions engendered by the existing relations between urban and rural spaces and was based on a qualitative approach, aiming to encompass the experiences developed throughout the teaching-learning process. For that matter, the students understood the concepts discussed about the countryside-city relationship and its developments that helped in the understanding of these rearrangements materialized in the agrarian space and in the urban space, to contribute to the denuding of nature-society and the promotion of a fully emancipated society
