The society consists of the inter-relations between diverse symbolic fields of performance, where some agents if identify for values, habits and goals. The present thesis analyzed, taking for base the Theory of the Social Field of Pierre Bourdieu, the ambient field and the university, leaving of the principle that the university is one of the propitious places for the quarrel, study, knowledge elaboration, and that the ambient education is one of the ways of dissemination of knowledge and action in favor of the ambient question. It was looked to contextualize and to identify the main factors that configure the university while a social field, and to evidence the conflict and connector links with the ambientalism. It is perceived university as space of tensions, whose produced capital stock in the academic scope must be enough convincing in the direction of the social transformation, of the expansion of conscience, the critical matureness, and thus to appear as agent of social transformation. The joint between the diverse social fields, promoted for the university, will be able to contribute for knowledge formularization that can consist base for elaboration of politics and programs to answer to the problems of the society contemporary. It has the inter-relationship between the two fields, however, this relation still is fragile, needing that a continuity practical social that they make possible that the ambient question is part of the culture of the university. This will be able to give with the intensification of the actions and the inclusion of the ambient questions in the communication mechanisms and administrative management. To surpass discontinuities caused for changes of groups leading and for interests politician conjunctural are necessary that they create habitus, what passes for the institutionalization of practical and the constitution of a culture that the agents allow if to reorganize defending the interests of social transformation front to the economic interests, as much in the university how much in the ambient field

Em busca do estado participativo: os desafios da participação social na gestão ambiental

The existence of several negative indicators such as deforestation, pollution of rivers and urban growth disorderly suggest a scenario of serious environmental degradation in Brazil, allowing that the model of public management of the environment here is not practiced efficiently, despite to be a recognition-of environmental legislation as one of the best and most comprehensive in the world. One of the main causes of this problem is the low social participation in environmental management that often exists only in the formal plan. Thus, although defined as Democratic State, in practice, it is only a Figurative State. Based on the study of the origin of the state and social participation in the Brazilian State, in general scope, and some environment committees and public hearings in Rio Grande do Norte, as instruments of social control, in particular scope, it is possible to build a real Democratic State in environmental management, a Participative State, in which all players are aware of the responsibility and committed to the duty assigned to them by the constitutional text with the present and future generations

A transversalidade no processo de formação do educador patrimonial ambiental

O objetivo desta investigação é analisar as representações de Educadores Ambientais sobre questões de ambiente consideradas relevantes no contexto da Educação Patrimonial Ambiental. Busca compreender a Educação Patrimonial Ambiental como educação para a formação da consciência do sujeito ecológico na perspectiva de que o ambiente é patrimônio. Os dados da investigação foram obtidos durante a realização do Curso Formação de Educadores Ambientais, realizado em Vigia de Nazaré/Pará, por meio de questionário semiestruturado e manifestações dos sujeitos durante o curso. Os sujeitos participantes da pesquisa são professores do Ensino Médio e das Séries Iniciais, Representantes de ONGs e alunos do Ensino Médio. As discussões preliminares ocorrem de acordo com análise do discurso (Orlandi, 2007) e o Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (Lefèvre; Lefèvre, 2005). Para as análises, os dados foram categorizados com base nas aproximações e similaridades e nas comunalidades dos discursos. As conclusões parciais apontam que há uma tendência crítica na maioria das concepções sobre Educação Ambiental, e as principais temáticas que desenvolvem nos trabalhos educativos estão relacionadas às ações do sujeito humano na sociedade e suas intervenções no meio ambiente. Os sujeitos da pesquisa compreendem que o ambiente é considerado patrimônio e suas concepções se aproximam da teoria da Educação Ambiental Crítica, adotada por Loureiro (2006) e Carvalho (2006).

Educação Ambiental e movimentos sociais: espaços paralelos ou compartilhados?

Tem sido cada vez mais constante ficarmos perplexos com a baixaexpressividade da consciência das pessoas e as morosas mudanças nocomportamento ecológico. Tanto a Educação Ambiental quanto os movimentossociais, como campos de ação social, se propõem a transformar esse cenário.Entretanto, vemos que, apesar desses propósitos compartilhados, não raro atuamem espaços paralelos. Essa situação requer uma reflexão tanto das perguntascomo das respostas a essa problemática. Destacamos dois pontos debatidos emgrupo no V EPEA, em 2009, os quais, longe de serem exclusivos, nos auxiliamnessa reflexão tendo a Educação Ambiental e movimentos sociais como espaçosde luta socioambiental. O primeiro se refere aos aspectos de atuação da EA e dosMS na busca de respostas fortes, e o segundo é relativo ao papel da academia naaglutinação desses espaços para transcender a pura investigação de perguntasfortes e incluir respostas fortes.

Piaget e a questão ambiental: sujeito epistêmico, diagnóstico e considerações educacionais

Em uma época em que questões sobre clima e sustentabilidade adquirem evidência inédita, Piaget e a questão ambiental vem contribuir para a discussão sobre a consciência ecológica e a Educação Ambiental para estudantes do ensino fundamental. A obra desenvolve temas concernentes a aprendizagem, moral e relação do homem com a natureza, além de expor o resultado de investigação científica desenvolvida pela autora, a pedagoga Carla Luciane Blum Vestena. Por meio de uma ampla pesquisa psicogenética aplicada a 240 crianças e adolescentes de 8 a 14 anos, a autora buscou relacionar o conhecimento deles sobre o meio ambiente e o juízo moral ambiental. Também testou a influência que fatores como faixas etárias dos estudantes e propostas pedagógicas das escolas podem exercer sobre a formação da consciência dos alunos e suas ações em favor do meio ambiente. Uma das conclusões do estudo é que crianças e adolescentes obtêm juízo moral ambiental, desde que as escolas lhes forneçam um espaço propício a cooperação, autonomia, desenvolvimento da afetividade e conhecimentos das questões do meio ambiente. A obra é voltada principalmente para a ação docente e apresenta-se como referência a gestores, pesquisadores e pedagogos, além de interessados na área de Educação, principalmente a Ambiental.

A educação ambiental proposta pela ecologia onírica: uma releitura do ambiente externo-interno das casas da cidade do rio grande sob a perspectiva poética

O ser humano vive maior parte do seu tempo em contato direto com o ambiente construído, portanto tornou-se fundamental pesquisar as relações de alteridade, qualidade de vida e pertencimento dentro de um espaço específico, a casa. Ressaltando que a casa nesta pesquisa é todo e qualquer lugar de moradia, percebe-se que ela exprime um estilo de vida, ou seja, um modo de viver e conviver, de pensar, de sentir, e de se relacionar com as pessoas e com o espaço. A partir das relações de seis moradores do Município de Rio Grande com suas respectivas casas pudemos conhecer os processos que ali ocorrem e quais são os efeitos deles na vida e atitudes de cada morador dentro e fora da morada. O estudo é fundamentado primordialmente na Educação Ambiental e na Ecologia Onírica. Mais especialmente, na Educação Estética Ambiental e Educação Estética Onírica, porém também dialoga com outras áreas do conhecimento, como a Psicologia Ambiental. Esta avalia e compreende o homem, como ele reage, interpreta e sente os espaços, e consequentemente, como ele é constituído através de todas as experiências, vivências, memórias neste meio tão íntimo que é a casa de cada um. O objetivo da pesquisa foi, a partir das relações dos moradores entre si e com o espaço da casa, conhecer qual é o significado desta na vida dos seus moradores, despertar a valorização do espaço/morada e o sentimento de pertencimento a ela, promovendo através dessa consciência uma maior qualidade de vida dentro e fora de casa.
