Abstract
PORTO-GONCALVES, Carlos Walter. The Amazon as an Unequal Accumulation of Times: A Contribution to the Political Ecology of the Region. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2015, n.107, pp.63-90. ISSN 2182-7435. https://doi.org/DOI:10.4000/rccs.6018.
This article examines the complex and contradictory socio-geographical dynamics of the Amazon, focusing on the multiple territorialities found there, which generate different possibilities for the future of the region. The different geographic scales involved are considered, taking into account the various eras (geological and geomorphological, archaeological, historical) that operate there, as well as the many spatial scales (local, regional, national and international/global).
Keywords : Amazon; indigenous people; political ecology; regional policy; territoriality.
