SUMMARY:
Work is a central element in the life of the human being, it is his condition of existence, reveals
his way of survival, identifies him as a human being and dignifies him. However, since the
implementation of the capitalist mode of production, the work has an abstract and alienating
meaning to re-become a means of providing the reproduction of capital. In the rural world, the
capitalist mode of production has been excluded from the world of work, the worker who does
not follow innovations and technological advances, being deprived of their small properties,
and transformed into a casual, non-resident employed labor force. And it is about the
unemployment resulting from the advances of the capitalist mode of production in the field,
especially in Bahia, that we will deal with in this thesis. Bahia presents a complex, diversified
rural territory, in which there are profound differences in patterns of capitalist development,
which are linked to the technical/technological progress adopted. It is intended to compare the
patterns of economic growth that emerged in selected territories of Bahian identity to answer
the following question: what is the potential for occupation in rural Bahia in view of the
specificities of agricultural development patterns that emerged in selected identity territories?
Thus, the general objective of this research is to understand the potential for occupation in rural
Bahia in view of the specificities of agricultural development patterns that emerged in selected
identity territories. Two hypotheses guide the research: i) The use of capital-intensive
technology provokes at the same time, in a movement contradictory from the point of view of
socioeconomic development, growth, increased productivity, and unemployment of the man
from the field. ii) Inclusive (labor-intensive) technological alternatives can mitigate the increase
in unemployment in the field. The methodology to answer the research question is based on
bibliographic research that seeks to systematize the state of the art. This qualitative survey will
be validated with census data (secondary) to explain or help in the comprehension of the
phenomenon (rural unemployment) that emerges in the selected bahian territories, based on the
paradigmatic discussion of technical progress in Brazilian agriculture. The conclusions reveal
that regarding the object of analysis of this thesis, the occupation of rural labor, the development
models adopted based on singular technological paradigms, seem to have a different impact on
the levels of occupation: more unemployment in the west of the state than in the Sertão do São
Francisco, and a lower unemployment rate in the Litoral Sul. Like the diagnosis, the
propositions to mitigate the phenomenon are unique and different. We understand, therefore,
that by developing a comparative analysis on the diversity of patterns of rural growth in Bahia
and its different alternatives for mitigating the phenomenon of unemployment in Bahia's
identity territories, we have brought novelty to this research.
