This book examines the process of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) in Brazil through the lens of community involvement. The author argues that the implementation of controversial projects, such as the Volta Grande mining project, demonstrate the failure of the current system to acknowledge the interests of local communities. Using international comparisons of public policy on environmental issues, the author proposes a model which aims to improve public participation in Brazilian environmental decisions.
Este libro es un síntoma en un doble sentido: refleja un proceso metamórfico que se desarrolla en un plano profundo y subyacente al de la producción de estudios y de la publicación de textos y, al tiempo, expresa algunos de los efectos psicosociales de esta transformación, que se invoca como trasfondo de las nuevas condiciones del trabajo en general y de su impacto específico en la calidad de vida laboral de los trabajadores de la salud y de la educación. En otros términos, es un libro típico de la presente época, necesario para comprenderla y solamente comprensible a la luz de los cambios operados, a lo largo del último tercio de siglo, en el mundo del trabajo, de su organización y de su gestión.
