Previous issue date: 2008-08-18 / The thesis aims at understanding the dynamics of soy expansion in the Amazon
State, in Brazil, by identifying and characterising the politico-institutional
arrangement responsible for the socio-spatial transformations that promoted the
reorganisation of the use of the territory and of its resources. The issue of soy
expansion is approached by relating, opposing, and arguing that the interactions of
politico-institutional arrangements between governments and their agencies, private
actors, and civil society form a dispute field, in which the exchange of power resources,
strategic alliances, and shared interests aim at influencing public policies to support the
soy expansion movement in the Amazon State. Concomitantly, the global
environmental problematic and the weight of Amazonia in the ecosystem balance
contributed to strengthening the concept of sustainable development, which has been
increasingly incorporated into the several spheres of companies, government, market,
and civil society institutional and organisational structures, by creating spaces for
dialogue, arenas for political dispute, new institutionalities, and public and private
environmental management systems. These dynamics mostly contribute to the
productive, social, and territorial restructuring of the Amazon State, as they enabled a
connection of the selected territories to the spatial production circuits and to the
cooperation circles at international level. It is concluded that the dynamics of
(re)production of the agricultural spaces, which incorporated the natural fields of the
South of the Amazon State into the globalised agricultural dynamics, happened in a
subordinate and excluding way, by emphasizing social and regional inequalities, and by
contributing to the promotion of negative externalities, such as land concentration and
an increase in the deforestation rates.

Amazonas, identificando e caracterizando o arranjo pol?tico-institucional
respons?vel pelas transforma??es socioespaciais que promoveram a reorganiza??o
do uso do territ?rio e de seus recursos. Trata-se da quest?o da expans?o da soja
relacionando, contrapondo e argumentando que as intera??es dos arranjos pol?ticoinstitucionais
entre governos e suas ag?ncias, os atores privados e a sociedade civil
estruturaram um campo de disputa, no qual a troca de recursos de poder, as alian?as
estrat?gicas e os interesses compartilhados visavam influenciar nas pol?ticas p?blicas
que sustentaram o movimento de expans?o da soja no Amazonas. Concomitantemente,
a problem?tica ambiental global e o peso da Amaz?nia no equil?brio ecossist?mico
concorreram para o fortalecimento do conceito de desenvolvimento sustent?vel que foi
sendo incorporado nas diversas inst?ncias das estruturas institucionais e organizacionais
das empresas; dos governos; do mercado e da sociedade civil, criando espa?os de
di?logos, arenas de disputas pol?ticas, novas institucionalidades e sistemas de
gerenciamento ambiental p?blicos e privados. Estas din?micas colaboram, sobretudo,
para a reestrutura??o produtiva, social e territorial amazonense ? medida que
possibilitaram que territ?rios selecionados fossem conectados aos circuitos espaciais de
produ??o e aos c?rculos de coopera??o em n?vel internacional. Conclui-se que a
din?mica de (re) produ??o dos espa?os agr?colas que incorporou ? din?mica
agropecu?ria globalizada os campos naturais do sul amazonense se deu de forma
subordinada e excludente acentuando as desigualdades sociais e regionais, al?m de
colaborar para a promo??o de externalidades negativas como a concentra??o fundi?ria e
o aumento das taxas de desflorestamento.
