Abstract

Earth and Work: the constitution of the field and farm workers in Toledo . Toledo (1955-1978) is engaged in understanding the process of class formation of rural workers in Toledo, as well as changes in the way we live and work in the field from their experiences in the period from 1955 to 1978. The theoretical and methodological orientation of the research is from the perspective of the Social History of Labour and Social Movements . I discuss how the work was reorganized as the intensification of capitalist relations of production and occupation of the field . The criminal cases are not read simply and solely for the purpose of drawing the constitution of the crime and the legal representations with respect to the historical presence of rural workers in the field or certain situations in their lives which were submitted and lived . The criminal cases are sources that lead us to the study of the historical experience of rural workers in Toledo , so that these criminal cases are designed and used as historical evidence . Criminal prosecutions while supplies direct to recover as was the daily life of this hidden class from the standpoint of the present, its values and the way they conducted their lives
