This article aims to theoretically investigate and discuss the main factors
responsible for the dynamics of forest deforestation in Pará State, with a view to approach
performed through spatial econometrics. The basic hypothesis of this study is that the
expansion of the agricultural frontier is the conductive element of the phenomenon of
deforestation in the state of Pará, and this advance of the agricultural frontier carries also
other factors that are directly linked to the advance of capitalist economic progress, such as:
cresimento economic (GDP), construction of roads, increase of cattle, concentrated land
ownership, speculation about the price of land, rural credit institutions, governance
mechanisms, among others. However, the main cause of deforestation activity in the state of
Pará is the beef cattle under extensive. In this context, spatial econometrics will be an
extremely important tool to measure, from the results obtained in the spatial econometric
model, the effects that deforestation has caused forest in Pará, as well as the specificity of each. The period chosen for the econometric spatial analysis covers the years 2000 and 2008
due to the high rate of deforestation in state of Pará. |
