description Based on the perspective of several support systems for new farmers in France and Brazil, this article aims to show the relevance of an approach based on the sociology of absences and emergences. This approach, developed by the Portuguese sociologist Boaventura Sousa Santos and still little known in the French-speaking area, seems to us to be able to shed light in an original and heuristic way on the currently highly debated question in France of generational renewal in agriculture. By testing the "logics" of monoculture identified by Sousa Santos (2016) (monocultures of productivity, of knowledge, of linear time, of the naturalization of differences, of scale) and their "contrary logics" (ecology of productivity, of knowledge, of temporalities, of differences, of interscale), we will show how conventional support systems produce a form of ignorance of the real heterogeneity of setting-up paths. It is thus the diversity of visions present among these future farmers, as well as the unique relationships with their environment and their territory which seems invisible, while in contrast, certain alternative networks deploy strategies to support the visibility and promotion of these aspects. This will also lead us to highlight the processes of criticism, bridges and forms of fluidity between these different networks and devices, inviting us to avoid an overly binary interpretation. By combining a detailed analysis of the potential of alternatives and a careful critical deciphering of the processes of imposition of dominant logics, the sociology of absences and emergences thus offers an original perspective on this question of supporting new farmers.
