Abstract

Abstract This article offers a review of the recent trajectories of political ecologies as communities of practice and movements for environmental justice, as well as a paradigm of scientific analysis. In this introduction to the 2021 special issue “Decolonial Insurgencies and Emancipatory Horizons: contributions from Political Ecology” of the Ambiente & Sociedade journal, we present a reflection on the contemporary socio-environmental reality, characterized by crises, environmental destruction, and climate emergency, focusing on the role of political ecology as a privileged space to critically discuss the socio-environmental relations that constitute new forms of violent appropriation of nature. Facing the tension of the current context marked by the rise of phenomena such as authoritarianism, climate change denial, and inequality, we highlight the construction of counter-narratives and alternatives that mobilize other horizons of emancipation and living projects through insurgencies and movements that emerge from the protagonism of marginalized populations and struggles for environmental justice.

危机与叛乱之间:捍卫共同生活的政治生态

本文回顾了政治生态学作为实践社区和环境正义运动的最新轨迹，以及科学分析的范式。在2021年特刊“非殖民叛乱和解放视野”的引言中:《环境与社会》(Ambiente & Sociedade)杂志的《政治生态学》(Political Ecology)的贡献，我们对以危机、环境破坏和气候紧急情况为特征的当代社会环境现实进行了反思，重点关注政治生态学作为一个特权空间的作用，以批判性地讨论构成暴力占用自然的新形式的社会环境关系。面对以威权主义、否认气候变化和不平等等现象的兴起为标志的当前背景的紧张局势，我们强调构建反叙事和替代方案，通过边缘化人口的主角和为环境正义而斗争的叛乱和运动，动员其他解放和生活项目的视野。
