Abstract

FIUZA, Alex de Castro; COSTA, Samira Lima da  and  LOUREIRO, Carlos Frederico Bernardo. Pathways for a psycho-environmental approach: contributions of psychosociology to socio-environmental discussions. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.41, pp. 42-54. ISSN 1519-549X.

In a context marked by several 'environmental conflicts', this article, as a theoretical essay, presents arguments from social ecology, political ecology and psychosociology to highlight the inherent inseparability between the social, economic, environmental and psychological aspects of these conflicts. By proposing 'work' as an analytical and articulating category between these different but integrated dimensions, a psycho-socio-environmental reading of 'environmental conflicts' is advocated from the psychosocial field. This position favors, on the one hand, the understanding of these conflicts and, on the other hand, political articulations that aim at a more fair, diverse and viable project to society.

Keywords : social and environmental conflicts; work; symbolic universes; emancipation; social and environmental crisis.
