Abstract

Abstract The urban becomes fundamental in the reconciliation of environmental issues given the current global urbanization. This study aims to pursue guidelines for developing a methodological approach that enlightens the relations between deforestation and urbanization in the Amazon. Considering the intense urban transition undergoing in the region, a systematic review was conducted to understand the state of knowledge and challenges of this scope. The analysis highlighted four investigative perspectives with relevant contributions, which could be better articulated with adjustments in the analysis system, an urban conceptual reformulation, and also with variables sensitive to socio-spatial dynamics. Approaches to social theory of mobility and risk have supported the design of an urban critical theory in line with the multidimensionality and transscalarity of the urban fabric socio-landscapes. By adding analytical perspectives from the spatial demography field, the study presents a theoretical-methodological framework to approach the contemporary interface between deforestation and urbanization.

巴西亚马逊地区森林砍伐与城市化之间的界面

在当前全球城市化的背景下，城市成为解决环境问题的根本。这项研究的目的是寻求指导方针，以发展一种方法学方法，启发亚马逊森林砍伐与城市化之间的关系。考虑到该地区正在经历激烈的城市转型，我们进行了一次系统的回顾，以了解这一领域的知识状况和挑战。该分析突出了具有相关贡献的四个调查观点，这些观点可以通过分析系统的调整、城市概念的重新拟订以及对社会空间动态敏感的变量更好地加以阐述。流动性和风险的社会理论方法支持了城市批判理论的设计，该理论符合城市结构社会景观的多维度和跨尺度性。通过增加空间人口学领域的分析视角，本研究提出了一个理论-方法框架来研究森林砍伐与城市化之间的当代界面。
