“…desenvolvimento sUstentável dA AmAzôniA A questão do desenvolvimento sustentável da Amazônia brasileira tem sido estudada por muitos autores [5,6,7,8,9,10,11] e as rápidas mudanças na relação entre sociedade e natureza no Antropoceno são importantes questões contemporâneas que requerem análises interdisciplinares para o seu entendimento [10,12].…”

“…O intuito de construir outro modelo de desenvolvimento para a Amazônia trouxe mudanças nesse quadro. Em parte, resultam do reconhecimentoconsagrado inclusive em fóruns internacionais 1 -de que tende a haver uma relação positiva entre sociodiversidade e biodiversidade OSTROM;COX, 2010;BRONDIZIO;TOURNEAU, 2016;TOLEDO et al, 2017). Trata-se da perspectiva socioambiental.…”

“…Nesse contexto, as corporações exportadoras de commodities associam a preocupação com a sustentabilidade nos negócios. Mas, também, diminui a atenção com a diversidade sociocultural que era valorizada no período que os autores chamam de "modelo de desenvolvimento socioambiental" (TOLEDO et al, 2017). Brondízio e Le Tourneau (2016, p. 1.273) lembram que, embora nos anos 2000 tenha aumentado o número de unidades de conservação na Amazônia, precisamente a ênfase na produção de commodities na região estaria comprometendo sua viabilidade.…”

“…The classification of PA classes according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) criteria (Dudley 2008), into strictly protected (I-IV) and sustainable use (or multiple use) management classes (V-VI), has generated several discussions on the efficiency of one category or another in reducing the illegal use of natural resources (Nelson & Chomitz 2011). While some 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 experts do not believe in the efficiency of multiple-use PAs in conserving biodiversity in the long term, others believe adoption of this class of PA will lead to a more effective and inclusive conservation strategy (de Toledo et al 2017;Schwartzman et al 2010). Laurance et al (2012) identified that in addition to the deforestation, across all three tropical continents logging, wildfires, and overharvesting (hunting and harvest of non-timber forest products) are major threats to tropical PA integrity.…”

Background. The Brazilian Amazon is the world's largest rainforest regions and plays a key role in biodiversity conservation as well as climate adaptation and mitigation. The government has created a network of protected areas (PAs) to ensure long-term conservation of the region. However, despite the importance of and positive advances in the establishment of PAs, natural resource depletion in the Brazilian Amazon is pervasive. Methods.We evaluated a total of 4,243 official law enforcement records generated between 2010 and 2015 to understand the geographical distribution of the illegal use of resources in federal PAs in the Brazilian Amazon. We classified illegal activities into ten categories and used generalized additive models (GAMs) to evaluate the relationship between illegal use of natural resources inside PAs with management type, age of PAs, population density, and accessibility. Results. We found 27 types of illegal use of natural resources that were grouped into 10 categories of illegal activities. Most infractions were related to suppression and degradation of vegetation (37.40%), followed by illegal fishing (27.30%) and hunting activities (18.20%). The explanatory power of the GAMs was low for all categories of illegal activity, with a maximum explained variation of 41.2% for illegal activities as a whole, and a minimum of 14.6% for hunting activities. Discussion. These findings demonstrate that even though PAs are fundamental for nature conservation in the Brazilian Amazon, the pressures and threats posed by human activities include a broad range of illegal uses of natural resources. Population density up to 50 km from a PA is a key variable, influencing illegal activities. These threats endanger long-term conservation and many efforts are still needed to maintain PAs that are large enough and sufficiently intact to maintain ecosystem functions and protect biodiversity.
