His writings, produced between 1790 and 1823, reveal his permanent commitment to the 18th century European scientific school known as ?Economy of Nature?. This school is considered one of the major links that contributed to the later formation of ?ecology?. A deep reform regarding the use of nature in Brazil, overcoming the predatory exploitation inherited from colonialism, was one of the main aspects of Bonifácio?s national project which contained precise indications of public policies necessary to reach this goal. His most important contribution was to show the existence of a causal relationship between slavery and environment destruction 2000 artículo científico 0102-6909 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10704407 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=107 Revista Brasileira de Ciências Sociais application/pdf Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Ciências Sociais Revista Brasileira de Ciências Sociais (Brasil) Num.44 Vol.15 |
