Creating intervention restricted environments from the expansion of human activities was the
model used by industrialized countries to preserve remaining ecosystems of their development
process. Brazil adopted this restrictive model through the creation of protected areas, among
other instruments. This thesis examines the establishment of protected areas as an instrument
of environmental policy in the brazilian Amazon to use as empirical observation units the
protected areas in the Calha Norte region, in the State of Pará, which corresponds to a region
with low human impact and, as an area located in the endemism guiana region, high
concentration of biodiversity, as well as the presence of considerable sociobiodiversity
(indigenous civilizations, Quilombola communities and traditional populations). This thesis
examines this issue considering the possibility to visualize in environmental management the
sustainability of the biodiversity maintaining, which includes respectively the physical basis,
the nature resources and the cultural, religious and indigenous peoples ways of life, the
Quilombola remaining communities and traditional populations in the region. The primary
goal of this thesis is to show that the legal protection of biodiversity and socio-biodiversity is
intrinsically related to the concept of bio-responsability, which is based on a set of factors
such as legal, political, administrative and economic establish relationships between them to
ensure environment sustainability not only as a passive legal good, but as a dynamic
allocation process, contributing with the elements to construction of a new meaning for the
biodiversity protection, which includes especially the sociobiodiversity by considering the
protected areas as one of the instruments for this conceptualization.
