A PSICOLOGIA AMBIENTAL E OS ESTUDOS PESSOA AMBIENTE:CONEXÕES INTERDISCIPLINARES COM A VÁRZEA AMAZÔNICA E SEUS SUJEITOS
Abstract
The multifaceted context of the person-environment relationship is confirmed in the environmental scenarios of the Amazon and, in particular, in the social and subjective experiences of riverside populations, forests and countryside and their interrelation with the social, cultural and geographical environment. Faced with these challenges, the knowledge and methodologies related to Environmental Sciences and Environmental Psychology (PA) find dialogicity and study opportunities, allowing us to highlight the historical and particular path that the relationship of men and women with the land reveals to us, pointing out the specificities in the ways of life and their connection with the construction of subjectivities in these experiential contexts and their particular relations with the territories. This study is categorized as bibliographic in nature, with a temporal, spatial and thematic focus. In this sense, the temporal demarcation of the investigation must be circumscribed between the months of January to July 2019; as a spatial context, the productions found in the scielo databases, thesis bank and monographs of Brazilian federal universities, which produce specific references of the themes covered in this article. BP is qualitatively distanced from other ways of perceiving and working with environmental aspects, allowing the inclusion of psychosocial and affective elements, in an integrated perspective of the person and the environment. In this sense, the person-environment relations in the Amazonian scenario, especially the riverside life context, is surrounded by multiple symbolic relations of space and place, in a mixture of interdependencies of the resources related to the river, the forest and the land, as well as the resources and social exchanges and cultural framework that emanates from the historically constituted social relations that are known to build subjectivities intrinsic to their ways of life.
