Abstract
This is a case study (Assentamento 16 de Marco, Pontao, RS, Brazil) which analyses how the reproduction process of a specific memory assumes strategic functions of social control. On one hand, it look for the ways the MST (Landless Workers Movement), articulating a set of initiatives, builds and spread a groups social memory, in order to build its socio-political identity, and consequently, assure that the settled farmers continue to belong to MST. On the other hand, the study points out the emergency, opposing the hegemonic memory, of a dissonant and politically subaltern memory. Finally the objective is to show how past reconstruction work is inserted into the net of present political battles, which moves throughout that social space.
