SCHROERING, Caitlin. Resistance and Knowledge Production: Social Movements as Producers of Theory and Praxis. CS [online]. 2019, n.29, pp.73-102. ISSN 2011-0324. https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i29.3181.
Drawing on fieldwork with Brazil’s Movimento dos Atingidos por Barragens (MAB), the author argues that MAB’s struggle is not just around those affected by dam projects; rather it is a part of a larger “alter-globalization” project. The author posits that MAB is not simply a social movement actor but a producer of knowledge that articulates theory and praxis resisting the larger hegemonic imperialist system. In this paper the following questions are explored: What can academia learn from social movements? How do scholars produce research that does not reinforce power hierarchies? And how do we create collaborative research?
