Abstract

The Geography and History teaching tradition in Secondary School (11-18 years old) has slanted the work world. Farming work is part of a rural landscape, where harmony is the priority and urban work is synonym of progress and industrialization. The workers’ movements reproduce a set of initials, names and facts which lose any relationship with the daily effort and the search for dignity as a person and as a group.
