Resumen

La literatura reciente promueve la idea de que la historia ambiental podría consolidar su “viraje cultural” (White 2004), centrándose sobre individuos que fueron significativos en las interacciones entre el hombre y el ambiente. Se sugiere un abordaje basado en la noción de biografía de Margadant, y son observadas las publicaciones más recientes en la historia ambiental utilizando un abordaje biográfico

He also has a keen interest in environmental history and has edited a recent volume Territories, Commodities and Knowledges: Latin American Environmental History in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries (Institute for the Study of the Americas, London). In addition, Dr, Brannstrom is interested in changes in natural resource regimes, particularly the decentralization of policies for water resources, and the impacts of agricultural land uses on the environment in Brazil, particularly western Bahia. An ongoing project, “New Environmental Governance in Brazil”, developed by Dr. Brannstrom, analyzed types of governance regimes, evaluates the influence of state actors and civil society on water governance, and measures environmental outcomes of new governance regimes.
