Abstract
Este texto discute modos possíveis de habitar o meio rural do interior de Portugal, com enfoque empírico numa freguesia rural onde foi realizada etnografia, com visitas pontuais, de modo extensivo, em 2004, 2016, 2018, 2019 e, de modo intensivo, em 2020. Localizada no distrito de Castelo Branco, concelho de Proença-a-Nova, a Mó é uma aldeia quase desabitada (4 residentes permanentes em 2019, 3 residentes em 2020). Argumentamos que, durante a emergência pandémica de 2020, habitar a aldeia em análise significa um aumento no valor social dado à natureza pela maioria dos residentes.
The present text discusses possible ways of inhabiting rural areas in the interior of Portugal, with an empirical focus in a rural parish where ethnography was carried out, with occasional visits, in an extensive way, in 2004, 2016, 2018, 2019 and, intensively, in 2020. Located in the district of Castelo Branco, municipality of Proença-a-Nova, Mó is an almost uninhabited village (4 permanent residents in 2019, 3 residents in 2020). We argue that, during the 2020 pandemic emergency, inhabiting the village under analysis means an increase in the social value given to nature by most residents.
