História da Associação Paraibana Amigos da Natureza (APAN): estratégias e lutas socioambientais em João Pessoa no período de 1978-1989.

Abstract

This dissertation has as its thematic axis the study of the Paraibana Friends of Nature Association (APAN), in a cut from 1978 to 1989, which is justified from the year of the foundation of the entity until the period of the State Constituent. In this way, we aim to discuss the social and environmental proposals of the APAN, strategies for mobilization, as well as their struggles in João Pessoa-PB through the city proposals that were linked to the ideas of protection to the Environment through Education, culminating in projects in the aforementioned period. For that, we contextualize the actions of the leaders: Paula Frassinete and Antônio Augusto. On the other hand, it is necessary to problematize the narratives of perspectives contrary to the Association, at the time: local politicians, owners of builders, real estate agents, and entrepreneurs; Through the justification of the economic development of the state and the city of Pessoa. In order to achieve the proposed objectives, methodologically, we used the cross-referencing of journalistic sources such as. Along with interviews with members / former members of the APAN. The complexity of the study allowed for a historiographic dialogue of Environmental History that served us to problematize the relation of segments of society / State with nature; And the English Social History that helped in the analysis of the strategies of action of the collective actors of the APAN.
