Conteúdo:

The health/disease duality has developed alongside human history either as a
struggle for survival or as a challenge of the human being to effectively get to know
himself. To speak about pests and diseases of plants may not be as exciting as when
speaking of human beings; however, entomology and phytopathology hold
methodological similarities to conventional medicine, which, thus, allow for correlations
among them. After all, plant protection and human medical science are based under
common epistemological principles of modern scientific thought. Hence, the goal of
this essay is to disclose certain disagreements of the disciplines of phytopathology
and entomology with agroecological based science; yet, giving way to a discussion
according to ecological principles. This is a theoretical essay, based on bibliographical
research and on the direct experience of the authors with family farmers in the South
of Brazil during the last 20 years.
