Summary: This research analyzes the possibilities of interrelationship between agroecology and health in times of barbarism. Through the bibliographical research, the capitalist form of relation with nature was criticized in other to show the implications of the rupture of the relationship between human beings and nature in the context of bourgeois sociability, which, by privatizing the land, imposed limits on the reproduction of ways of life bearers of rich and complex traditional knowledge. At the same time, it printed forms of land use that were harmful to human health and the planet. With the imperative of the structural crisis of capital and the deepening of the process of environmental devastation, it is urgent that anti-capitalist human relations support
other ways of life. Collective memory that involves other forms of relationship with nature, practiced by traditional cultures, has been rescued, and it has been concerned not to sacralize these traditions as an alternative to the capitalist way of life, because they are not free from alienation and fetishism. Through this examination it was possible to identify agroecology, as the area that has given visibility to the traditional subjects as authors of know-how that is the basis of the organization and resistance of these subjects against capital. It was also pointed out the necessity of a practical interrelation between agroecology and health in the present time without losing track of the construction of anticapitalist ways of life.
