SUMMARY:

The youth of the MST began to build an organizational instance in 2005 with the creation of the National Youth Collective through marches, meetings and seminars where the participation of youth was massive. The collective was constituted through the Brazilian and international rural social and union movements organized in Via Campesina. The rural contexts, constitute subjectivities expressed in the movement's struggle banners, explicit in the slogans "Youth who dare to fight, build popular power". We aim to analyse the subjective meanings of the political participation of young people active in the National Youth Collective of the MST, specifically: a) to identify the effects of political participation on the daily life of the youth of the collective; b) to understand the subjective meanings that young people from the National Youth Collective attribute to their political participation; and c) to describe the coping strategies employed in each space of action by the youth to face the challenges present in their sociocultural contexts. We sought to trace a methodological path anchored in the cultural-historical approach in interface with the Theory of Subjectivity of constructive-interpretative inspiration and Militant Research. Three young men and women aged 21, 23 and 27 participated in the research, two men and one woman, all black and indicated by national leaders of the collective. As instruments we used a sociodemographic form and the Photovoice technique, used as an autophotographic resource in which the participant observed her/his reality, interpreted it and articulated it in the form of a photograph as an answer to three questions: What led me to fight? What challenges do I face in my daily life? What is it like to be a young fighter in the MST? After the photos were sent, individual meetings were scheduled for conversations to explain the personal interpretations of each photograph, resulting in an open dialogic procedure that provided a hybrid conversation, based on new questions that emerged in the dialogue and also on a semi-structured guide of auxiliary questions. A categorical analysis was carried out to identify the relevance of the events reported for the subjective processes of the participants and the objectives of the study. Young people feel that political participation is not dissociated from the notion they have of themselves, they constitute themselves subjectively as militant youths, aggregating the principles and values constructed by the movement which make up their subjective meanings. The move to the encampments with the families, participation in meetings of the Little Landless, marches, meetings and contact with other people in the same situation were crucial for the development of their subjectivities. The daily life of youth is tied up with the dynamics of militancy, rural work, university and training promoted by the movement. They present challenges and internal contradictions, such as the difficulty in mobilizing the category and the rural exodus. At the same time, they consider that friendship and affective bonds may be powerful for the work of mobilizing the youth. The construction of subjective meanings about being young Sem Terra is focused on the practice of the tasks of the collective and of the movement as a whole, demonstrating that to be is to do. There is a perceptible feeling of "debt" to previous generations with regard to continuing their struggles. At the same time, young people build new paths for the movement from an active political participation in the diverse organizational instances. They believe that political participation in the National Youth Collective may favour personal development and be understood as a formative cycle that influences the life trajectories of its militants by providing experiences in the various spaces of political action of the MST.
