ROCHA, Ronaldo Gazal. Ecoideologias associadas aos movimentos ambientais: contribuições para o campo da educação ambiental. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2006, n.27, pp.55-73. ISSN 0104-4060.

Different approaches on development raise multiple possibilities of interaction of the natural and social fields, intermediated by the human subjectivity. Therefore, the characterization of eco-ideologies, often associated to ecologic movements, may supply us with important data for the analysis of the environmental issues. In attempting to discuss the relational aspects of the taxonomic studies effective at present, we considered both the origin and the interaction of certain fields - or eco-ideologies - as a way of comprehending the organizational process of the national environmentalist movements. From the 90's, the influence of the environmentalist movements in the worldwide scenario is clear, most specially in the political and economic fields, creating impact situations in cultural and institutional values. Although most of the environmental issues are bound to last, the study of the variations on those movements might help us assessing their changing potential by exposing dimensions and conflicts capable of organizing new cultural identities. Such considerations, far from being presented as of hegemonic character, seek to contributing to a more consistent ecological criticism.
