DA SILVA GUEVARA, Gisela. INTERVENTIONISM AND ENVIRONMENT: THE BRAZILIAN AMAZON CASE. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.1, pp.237-266. ISSN 1909-3063.  https://doi.org/10.18359/ries.2470.

This article intends to debate on concepts such as the internationalization of the Amazonian region and the sovereignty of the States concerning the environmental sphere, reflecting on contributions from authors that have discussed these topics. The methodology used is a qualitative one, resorting to diverse books and academic articles as well as to primary sources through which the variety of positions on the aforementioned concepts can be seen. In here, there is a reflection on the meaning of the concept "Internationalization of the Amazon" as seen from, on the one hand, the South - especially Brazil -, and, on the other, the Northern countries, debating on the implications for international relations of the contrasting approaches between developed countries and developing nations. The starting point is the premise of the obstacle for a consensus between North and South regarding the internationalization of the Brazilian Amazonian region being based on divergent notions about sovereignty and social responsibility from the States, notions that, up to date, have not been leveled.

Palabras clave : North-South consensus; Internationalization of the Amazonian region; Natural resources; State sovereignty.
