RESUMO

Twenty years ago the curriculum for teaching biology in the secondary schools did not include the present-day emphasis on topics such as ecology and enviromental issues. The increasing importance of these topics, with their evident interrelationships, indicates a change in sensitive involving the relationship between. Man and the Natural World. At present this relationship is evidence in two conflicting points of view the domination of Nature by Man and the subjugation of Man to the laws established by the Science of Ecology. Ecology represents the greatest direct influence on the concepts elaborated by society for the interpretation of the World of Nature. The perspectives orienting the relationship between Man and Nature today assume a systematic comprehension of Nature. Since the school represents a socially privileged entity for the divulgations of ecologic concepts, an attempt was made to identify references to various critical aspects involving how these concepts are dealt with in biology textbook and other relevant literature, including how the theory of ecosystems is developed, if Man is included as part of an ecosystem, if environmental questions are Presented and discussed, and how the relationship between Man and Nature is portrayed, especially in relation to its inherent conflicts and implications
