A colheita da floresta: Uma estratégia de desenvolvimento social e economicamente viável ao desmatamento? by Patricia Andrade de Oliveira

“…Also, the Biodiversity Convention, which took place during the WCED, highlighted the sovereignty of nations over their biological resources and defined that each country should create its own conditions to facilitate access to genetic resources while promoting the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits derived from the use of such resources.Central to this process are debates over the role of the economic activity in environmental protection, especially the protection of the world’s biodiversity resources upon which the whole economic and climatic systems depend.This paper examines the theory behind some modern development strategies, such as the one that supports that the market economy will save the world’s biodiversity. …”
