MORALES JASSO, Gerardo. Theoretical notes from Brazil on environmental history. A necessary step in the constitution of a Latin American and Caribbean environmental history. Revista Col. San Luis [online]. 2019, vol.9, n.18, pp.327-353. ISSN 2007-8846.  https://doi.org/10.21696/rcsl9182019939.

The text seeks to introduce Hispanoamerican and Caribbean historians to Brazilian environmental history. In order to prepare it, proposals from nine Brazilian environmental historians were selected and synthesized. Such that, the text is a critical synthesis of articles written by nine Brazilian environmental historians. For questions of space, such synthesis does not show its coincidences and differences with Hispanoamerican and Caribbean environmental history; but it invites us to take a closer look at Brazilian environmental history in order to constitute a collective of Latin American environmental historians in dialogue. Furthermore, it redefines the categories: environment, society, and nature based on the syntagmas "anthroposociety" and "nonanthropic nature", which resignifies environmental history in a context of scientific revolution and posits its complicated relationship with social history. It also addresses the interdiscipline/transdiscipline/subdiscipline discussion.
