ABSTRACT
This text discusses the political and epistemological gains arising from the partnership between historians, social movements, organizations, and communities in the discussion of the theme of the contemporary energy and environmental crisis. We discuss some categories and hypotheses put forward by these political subjects related to the ways in which water resources were captured by the market economy and the solutions to the current energy crisis based on agrofuels. Finally, we argue that historiography, when resuming its place in the public space, must be on the side of those who have been fighting, for at least five decades, against ecocide and epistemicide, and betting for life.
