Agroecossistemas de camponeses agroextrativistas na Amazônia brasileira: uma reflexão a partir da agroecologia política

Abstract

The present study intends to analyze the role of the field of political Agroecology in the scenario of agroextractivist peasants in Amazonia, based on the analysis of nine agroecosystems in the Ilha do Capim, Abaetetuba - Pará. We analyze the economic-ecological flows of the agroecosystems, their institutions and interactions with ecological-distributive conflicts. We use the qualitative approach and as basis the method of economic-ecological analysis of agroecosystems. As a research technique, we used semi-structured interviews, informal conversations, direct observation and secondary data. We characterize the political organization of agroecosystems, and identify the crisis of traditional management. The study concluded that the political Agroecology is fundamental in these scenarios because it allows the rupture with the fragmented vision on these agroecosystems; in addition to understanding the challenges faced. Its main role is to promote the qualitative recampesinization of the agroextractivist peasants through the overcoming of the crisis of the traditional management in course in the region.
