| Summary: |
Debate about the environment became more significant
around 1960; this period assumed an important
role regarding the scientific community�s outburst of
interest in the topic. Such interest raised the matter
to international policy level when international conferences
were held about the environment (Stockholm
1972, Rio 1992 and Johannesburg 2002) aimed
at stimulating thinking about sustainable alternatives
for modern society�s consumption and production
pattern. According to Martins (2008), one of the factors
contributing towards consolidating environmental
matters is associated with economic rationality and
technical-scientific know-how. Such process promotes
convenient similarity with economic variables considered
in policy decision-making. Once environmental
issues become incorporated by government bodies
they acquire a new form of how they become developed
and organicity. However, the way this issue has
been incorporated into the field of policy decisionmaking
is open to critical interpretation, mainly regarding
the limits of neoclassical economic principles as a
way of orientating socio-environmental policy (Martins,
2004; Leff, 2006). |
