RESUMO
This doctorate thesis analyzes the economic, political and institutional, ecological and social aspects of environmental policy in Brazil through study of the Public Forest Management Law. Scientists, decision makers, representatives from the productive sector, the State and organized civil society have identified problems, challenges, threats, opportunities as well as conflicts of interest when formulating and implementing the law. Placed in a historical perspective by analyzing the evolution of the Brazilian State and environmental policy, it is acknowledged the need for environmental policies to follow a tendency for cross-disciplinary collaboration and sustainable use of the natural resources and endowment of the country through technical, scientific and traditional knowledge. Often, knowledge is restricted to a simplified thought when formulating environmental policies, and this renders difficult the solid construction of a collective and applicable notion of the widely accepted precept of sustainability. This thesis notes the challenges in reconciling different interests in a political and institutional context with structural problems and conflicts between the different actors involved in formulating and implementing environmental policies concomitant to the existing relationship dynamics between different social actors, public policies and scientific knowledge. In this process, it is crucial to strengthen institutions and knowledge use. The present study seeks to demonstrate that, when formulating environmental policy in Brazil, the existing political and institutional weaknesses prevent the Public Forest Management Law from being implemented effectively for the sustainable and strategic management of Brazilian forests
