社会运动往往寻求更广泛社会的变革，但它们本身也受制于其运作环境的流动性和短暂性。学术文献长期以来一直认为，社会运动不可避免地受到制度化和失去相关性的困扰，在巴西，社会经济变化如此活跃，无地工人运动的未来受到质疑。本文认为，MST是应对其成员的变化，并在巴西更广泛的转型，在一个衡量的方式，利用一个熟悉的剧目的合作，以促进生产。这篇文章认为，下降不一定是确定的，但作为一个案例研究运动更普遍，目前的MST领导决策可能是重要的，在理解社会运动如何才能最好地应对不可预测的变化，在更广泛的社会。
Social movements often seek transformation in wider society, but they are also themselves subject to the fluidity and ephemerality of the environments in which they operate. Academic literature has long held the view that social movements inevitably come to be beset by institutionalisation and a loss of relevance, and in Brazil, where socio-economic change has been so dynamic, the future of the Landless Workers’ Movement (Movimento dos Sem Terra(MST)) has been called into question. This article argues that the MST is responding to changes in its membership, and transformation more widely in Brazil, in a measured way, by drawing upon a familiar repertoire of cooperativisation to boost production. The article suggests that decline is not necessarily certain, but as a case study for movements more generally, current MST leadership decisions may be significant in understanding how social movements can best react to unpredictable transformations in wider society.
