Abstract
In this contribution, ways of analysis are established that allow the incorporation of material change processes in the context of global rural restructuring. The traditional binary relation can evolve towards hybrid models based on the permanent becoming and the post-structural or the post-modern visions. The evolution from the binary to the hybrid analysis model aims to establish simple and complex encounters between social and material categories. In the second part of this contribution, the different types of (dis)encounters are established through three traditional house sales processes in the High Besaya area in Cantabria (Spain), analyzed in an auto-ethnographic way.
