Abstract

This paper proposes a reflection based on a research about of multiple experiences in indigenous territories, quilombolas and local population with borders or overlays with conservation units in Paraíba, confronted with major economic ventures or the target of public policies directed to them. Based on a comparative analysis of, these experiences, environmental conflicts due to territorial disputes after the deployment of large private enterprises were identified, on one hand, and, on the other hand, a rapprochement between the interests in favor of local sustainable development and environmental conservation, through social and environmental policies as a result of the mediation of the State. Results of this research showed fragile signals of creation of a common venue where human and natural science researchers may dialogue to build a relationship between society and nature.
