movements
The study
The paper focuses on a qualitative study, theoretically supported in
Boaventura de Sousa Santos’ critical sociology, especially in the
sociology of absences and emergencies and the prospect of
epistemologies of the South.
Knowledge is not viewed as something of cognitive order exclusively,
but a matter of world view, perception and representation
regarding the identities and cultural expressions of these subjects.
