This work deals with an ethical-political reflection that problematizes the way in which the notion of the people is worked within two fields / movements that are articulated epistemologically and politically: Agroecology and Field Education. The location of this research in Cultural Studies leads us to extract possible consequences for the processes of human formation in the education of the / in the field and in the agroecopedagogy. In this way, we carry out a transversal problematization of the people's notion that constitutes a founder horizon of the aforementioned movements. For this purpose, we use categories developed by the Argentine thinker Ernesto Laclau. Our argument is an attempt to establish a dialogue between the epistemology of popular education connected with the ontological dimension to desnaturalize identities and the transforming limits that are granted to emancipatory identities. Thus, by privileging a political ontology of the social structure as constituted by power relations, we can direct the question of counter-hegemony for both Agroecology and Field Education in two ways, one of production and the other of non-production. production, thus recovering a certain sense of utopian thinking; this discussion about the emptiness of reality, of totality, of demands and of the subject, makes possible a counter-hegemonic education not necessarily linked to an immanent emancipation of the subject or the medium, but by the constitution of linked discourses to self-care, in which a transdisciplinary training sustained on spiritual concerns, is a demand for training in Agroecology and Field Education courses.
