description In this article we present an enquiry on the ways in which the environmental conflictbetween the peasants and the agribusiness model in Santiago del Estero, Argentina, is expressed in the field of education. In order to carry out this qualitative study, we first conducted semistructured interviews and participant observations in meetings and workshops in peasant communities in the mountains of Guasayán. We then reviewed documents from peasant organizations in the province of Santiago del Estero. This was followed by successive cycles of open and axial analysis. The results were structured along the following conceptual axes: (1) school system in peasant territories, (2) learning by participation in communities and in the movement and (3) Agroecology School. The conclusion is that the field of education is one of the contexts of dispute between the peasants and agribusiness in the former’s struggle for its own (re)existence. We thus highlight the importance of looking not only at how environmental conflicts are represented in the educational system, but also at the practices of educational agents in such conflicts.

En este texto presentamos un trabajo de indagación sobre las formas en que el conflicto ambiental entre el campesinado y el modelo del agronegocio en Santiago del Estero, Argentina, se expresa en el campo educativo. Para llevar adelante este estudio de corte cualitativo, realizamos primero entrevistas semiestructuradas y observaciones participantes en reuniones y talleres en comunidades campesinas de las sierras de Guasayán. Luego revisamos documentos de organizaciones campesinas de la provincia de Santiago del Estero. Después se realizaron ciclos sucesivos de codificación abierta y axial. Los resultados se estructuraron en los siguientes ejes conceptuales: (1) sistema escolar en los territorios campesinos, (2) aprendizaje por participación en las comunidades y en el movimiento y (3) Escuela de Agroecología. La conclusión es que el campo educativo es uno de los contextos de disputa entre el campesinado y el agronegocio en la lucha del primero por su propia (re)existencia. Resaltamos así la importancia de mirar no solo cómo se representan los conflictos ambientales en el sistema educativo, sino también las prácticas de agentes educativos en dichos conflictos. Neste artigo apresentamos um trabalho de pesquisa sobre as formas como o conflitoambiental entre os camponeses e o modelo do agronegócio em Santiago del Estero,Argentina, se expressa no campo educacional. Para realizar este estudo qualitativo, primeirorealizamos entrevistas semiestruturadas e observações participantes em reuniões e oficinasem comunidades camponesas nas serras de Guasayán. Em seguida, revisamos documentosde organizações camponesas da província de Santiago del Estero. Posteriormente, ciclossucessivos de codificação aberta e axial foram realizados. Os resultados foram estruturadosao longo dos seguintes eixos conceituais: (1) sistema escolar em territórios camponeses,(2) aprendizagem na participação nas comunidades e no movimento, e (3) Escola deAgroecologia. A conclusão é que o campo educacional é um dos contextos de disputa entreo campesinato e o agronegócio na luta do primeiro por sua própria (re)existência. Destaforma, destacamos a importância de olhar não apenas para a forma como os conflitosambientais são representados no sistema educacional, mas também para as práticas dosagentes educacionais em tais conflitos.
