Ongoing researchs revealedexperiences of sustainability, permanence and resistance of traditional ruraland emergence of a new rural, as alternative to the hegemonic model: modelsthat can be analyzed in view of regional development, inserted in globaltrends, indicating return and permanence in the country, not only of ruralworkers and peasants, as city people who choose to work in in rural areas,or alternate urban life to rural. This article presents two models of rurality"discovered" by us in São Carlos region: an ecovillage with residents inrural-urban alternations and a farm in a rural district, which presents atraditional rural with historical resistance by a quilombola family stronglypressed by agribusiness.
