FOR AN AMAZON FROM AMAZONIAN VIEWS: REFLECTIONS AND RESISTANCE
The work seeks to offer a brief historical economic overview of how the Amazon, especially the Brazilian Amazon, was viewed from European colonization to the contemporary era, in order to problematize colonial logics, present in this trajectory. The method used was based on the bibliographic review of articles and documents, which deal with each moment analyzed (Country side drugs, Rubber Cycles and Contemporary Economy) as well as the use of IBGE data. At the end of the work, it is concluded that the predominant vision in relation to the Amazon territory restricted it only to its natural resources, in this sense, the work questions the prerogatives of this perspective and presents the need for another vision that privileges local populations, especially in a context of climate change.

Abstract:
The work seeks to offer a brief historical economic overview of how the Amazon, especially the Brazilian Amazon, was viewed from European colonization to the contemporary era, in order to problematize colonial logics, present in this trajectory. The method used was based on the bibliographic review of articles and documents, which deal with each moment analyzed (Country side drugs, Rubber Cycles and Contemporary Economy) as well as the use of IBGE data. At the end of the work, it is concluded that the predominant vision in relation to the Amazon territory restricted it only to its natural resources, in this sense, the work questions the prerogatives of this perspective and presents the need for another vision that privileges local populations, especially in a context of climate change.
