Abstract
This study aims at interpreting the identity reconstruction of students of the rural school Colégio Estadual do Campo Adélia Rossi Arnaldi of Paranavaí/PR - Brazil, in the midst of the various socialization processes to which they have been submitted in their lives. The theoretical framework was based on Pierre Bourdieu’s (1930-2002) contributions on the concepts of habitus, fields and reproduction of social conditions, and the concept of ideology as understood by Louis Althusser (1918-1990). Data was collected through semi-structured and narrative interviews and analyzed according to Pecheux’s discourse analysis theory. We were able to identify, that even though the school is constituted as a ‘rural school,’ its practices impose an urban ideology, which is assimilated and influences the reconstruction of the student’s in the relationship with their families and the rural environment.
