The climate emergency in history textbooks: a discussion about curricular prescriptions
type: item
description: This article aims to discuss how the socio-environmental theme of the climate emergency is treated as historiographical and pedagogical content in the history curriculum in elementary school. To this end, we seek to problematize how this topic is addressed in eighth-grade history textbooks distributed by the Programa Nacional do Livro Didático. We seek to understand how school history becomes a field of debate regarding the meaning of environmental issues in schools, especially considering the curricular prescriptions present in various public policies focused on the educational field, such as the BNCC and the PNLD.

Environment and international polices: women’s role in sustainable development (1987-1995)
type: item
description: The present study aims to analyze the international guidelines of the United Nations aimed at the inclusion of women in the context of sustainable development between 1987 and 1995. It seeks to understand how international documents incorporated gender issues into environmental and development agendas and their applications in education for the twenty-first century. The adopted methodology is based on the capacity development approach (Lopes, 2005). The analyzes indicate a recognition of women as key agents in achieving sustainable development, albeit marked by persistent ambiguities. It was found that women’s education is presented as a strategic instrument for expanding individual, institutional, and social capacities, however, guidelines, especially those related to women’s training for the labor market, tend to reproduce capitalist and colonial logics, thereby limiting effective advances in gender equality.

Environmental Education and Agroecology: teacher training and pedagogical diversity
type: item
description: This article aims to discuss the foundations of Environmental Education and Agroecology, mobilizing them in teacher training experiences and pedagogical diversity, based on a research and extension project developed at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF). Considering a predatory capitalist mode of production that intensifies the impoverishment of the working class and causes socio-environmental collapse, it becomes essential to break with the hegemony of capital and the domination of its way of being, building paths for the diversity of knowledge, know-how, and ways of producing human existence, grounded in popular demands and real human needs.

Humanitarian Demining in Colombia between 2001 and 2021: from Technical Clearance to Territorial Management and environmental in the Post-Conflict Period
type: item
description: This study examines the progress of humanitarian demining in Colombia (2001–2021), a period during which the country consolidated its adherence to the Ottawa Convention and strengthened its institutional framework through the Comprehensive Action against Antipersonnel Mines (AICMA). The objective is to assess the evolution of clearance operations, operational capacity, and the results achieved in reducing explosive contamination. The research, based on a descriptive and analytical approach, relies on official data with reports finalized in 2020 and 2021. Between 2004 and 2021, 16.5 million m² were cleared, an increase of 250% compared to the initial decade, with more than 3,000 explosive devices destroyed annually since 2018. Nevertheless, by the end of 2021, only 19.5% of the affected territory had been released. The study establishes a baseline for future research on the evolution and sustainability of Colombia’s demining process.

Contemporary Curricular Perspectives: Environmental Education in Focus: some experiences in Misiones (Argentina)
type: item
description: This paper analyzes the place of environmental education in contemporary curricular trends and within the framework of public policies, with special attention to the Argentine case and, in particular, to the province of Misiones. The paper addresses the main international and national milestones in environmental education, from the Belgrade Charter (1975) to National Law 27.621 on Comprehensive Environmental Education (CEE). The paper argues that environmental education has established itself as a cross-cutting perspective that challenges the curriculum and teaching, promoting new forms of articulation between citizenship, rights, and sustainability, which are essential in the face of the contemporary socio-environmental crisis.

Population evolution of the Laklãnõ people (1914–2025): a century of ethnocide and genocide attempts
type: item
description: This article examines the historical and demographic evolution of the Laklãnõ (Xokleng) population in southern Brazil from the early twentieth century to 2025, integrating population data, historical records, and fieldwork-based information. The study employs a mixed qualitative and quantitative methodology, combining bibliographic review, documentary analysis of official and missionary sources, systematization of secondary demographic data, and ethnographic fieldwork conducted within the Laklãnõ Indigenous Territory. The theoretical framework draws on historical anthropology, Indigenous demography, and critical analyses of contact processes, state violence, and indigenist policies. The findings reveal significant population fluctuations linked to colonization, territorial expansion, forced confinement, and state interventions, followed by a recent phase of demographic recovery. The analysis shows that Laklãnõ population dynamics cannot be understood through a linear perspective, requiring an integrated interpretation of numerical data, historical context, and lived social experiences. The study contributes to broader debates on Indigenous demographic change and historical processes in southern Brazil.

PubPolicy, Environmental History and Education: Genealogy of Environmental Education in Argentina (1970–2024)
type: item
description: This article analyzes the historical trajectory of environmental education in Argentina from the 1970s to the enactment of the Comprehensive Environmental Education Law (2021). Drawing on an environmental history and public policy approach, it reconstructs the main normative, institutional, and social milestones that shaped environmental education in the country. Three distinctive features are identified: the initial fragmentation and absence of state policies during the early years, the territorial heterogeneity derived from federalism, and the central role of socio-environmental conflicts as pedagogical catalysts. Law 27.621 is examined as both a point of arrival and departure: it crystallizes decades of social struggles and community-based educational experiences, while also raising new challenges for implementation. The article concludes that Argentina’s peculiarity lies in having configured a hybrid model, resulting from the conflictive dialogue between global frameworks, national norms, and local social practices, which gives environmental education a critical and profoundly political character.

Territory, environment, and production: a historical perspective on the misionera-correntina frontier
type: item
description: From the colonial era to the expansion of contemporary society, the environment has influenced patterns of territorial occupation, conflicts over land use, and frontier dynamics between the current provinces of Misiones and Corrientes (Argentina). The natural landscape —rivers, forests, wetlands, and fertile soils— has served both as a setting and as an active agent in the territorial, economic, and cultural formation of these regions. In this study, we focus on the central role that the landscape and the environment have played in the development of agricultural and livestock production, as well as in shaping the Misiones-Corrientes frontier during the 19th and 20th centuries. We base our approach on the analysis and interpretation of contemporary sources in order to understand how environmental conditions influenced productive processes, particularly the development of yerba mate and livestock activities along both sides of the territorial boundary. Finally, from a theoretical and interdisciplinary perspective, the article seeks to reflect on the need to integrate territorial and environmental dimensions into the teaching of regional history, thereby contributing to a more complex understanding of the interrelationships between nature, economy, and society in this specific frontier area.

The place of places. The Indian grotto and the puma cave (Garuhapé/Misiones/Argentina) as historical-environmental heritage, in a regional/local perspective
type: item
description: This article discusses the archaeological sites of Gruta India – or Cueva 3 de Mayo – and Cueva El Puma (Garuhapé, Misiones, Argentina), as historical and environmental heritage, focusing on their social and touristic relevance in the debate on sustainable development and preservation policies. The research project "Misiones and its Pre-Hispanic History" emphasized a historical-environmental perspective to understand the heritage-making processes of both sites, integrating community knowledge, heritage education, and sustainable tourism proposals. The qualitative methodology guided the dialogue between the voices concentrated in oral testimonies, documentary records, participant observation surveys, and the production of educational materials, in collaboration with local institutions. The results demonstrate that valuing heritage assets strengthens the sense of community belonging, generates new opportunities for local development, and enables the inclusion of the sites in regional tourist circuits. However, it also reveals tensions and conflicts surrounding conservation, economic exploitation, and citizen participation; even more so in border contexts that involve the management/action of government institutions of diverse jurisdictional scopes.

Integral ecology and ecological citizenship in the thinking of Pope Francis: education, politics, and the socio-environmental crisis
type: item
description: The main objective of this article is to analyze Pope Francis' thinking on integral ecology and ecological citizenship in order to understand how the historical subordination of politics to technocratic and economic interests has limited effective responses to the complex socio-environmental crisis. Methodologically, we opted for documentary and qualitative research. The results of the study indicate that, in order to overcome the crisis and the “throwaway culture,” it is essential to incorporate the principles of the Social Doctrine of the Church and integral ecology. This must be complemented by the formation of ecological citizenship through transformative educational strategies and the use of environmental history, which would allow public policies to be oriented toward the common good and intergenerational responsibility.

The Santo Antônio and Jirau Hydroelectric Dams as an expression of the Capitalocene: impacts and floods on the Madeira River from an environmental history perspective
type: item
description: This article analyzes the Jirau and Santo Antônio Hydroelectric Dams, built on the Madeira River (RO), as expressions of the Capitalocene and as vectors in the production of socio-environmental disasters in the Amazon. Engaging with Environmental History, the study investigates how large-scale infrastructures operate in the reconfiguration of territories and, above all, in the production of risks, vulnerabilities, and environmental injustices. Drawing primarily on news reports published between 2012 and 2023 across different media outlets, the research identifies narrative patterns and social conflicts associated with the impacts of the dams. The article argues that such disasters result from a form of oppression reinforced by the State apparatus, which transforms ecosystems and communities into Cheap Nature.

Water, landscape and development: impressions of travelers in the Itajaí Valley (19th and early 20th centuries)
type: item
description: The aim is to analyze impressions about water based on the landscape description in the Valley of Itajaí, interrelating this element with human presence, biodiversity, and other elements of geodiversity. Primary sources and travelers who traversed the region in the 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as secondary sources, were consulted. The travelers, upon navigating the Itajaí-açu and Itajaí-mirim rivers, describe the beauty of the landscape surrounding the watercourses, linking biodiversity and geodiversity. Some travelers make comparisons between the region's watercourses and those in other locations; they suggest actions to improve transportation to promote regional development; and they describe the occupation (ethnicities) and the size of properties along the banks of the Itajaí River. They highlight the use of water resources as a regional development element. The water flows, so admired by travelers, over time have become an increasing problem for regional development, causing floods with catastrophic repercussions.

Aquatic Modernization and Socioecological Reconfiguration: Historical Narratives of the Blue Revolution from Lake Pátzcuaro, Mexico
type: item
description: This paper traces the early configurations of the Blue Revolution in Mexico through the case of Lake Pátzcuaro in the 1930s. It begins with a review of the conceptual and historiographical background of the term, to then examine the assemblage of modernizing projects around aquaculture and fisheries in the lake. These initiatives brought together science, conservation, state-led modernizing projects, and transnational knowledge networks. The study argues that the postrevolutionary state used Pátzcuaro as a laboratory for reshaping relations between society and nature, anticipating the narratives and practices that decades later came to define the Blue Revolution, and the dynamics of the Great Acceleration of the Anthropocene and its effects in the aquatic landscapes.

Social Détente and Political Transition in Florianópolis, 1974–1985
type: item
description: This article examines the developments of the so-called policy of social détente in Florianópolis during Brazil’s political transition (1974-1985). Drawing on the administration of Mayor Espiridião Amin, the study explores how the rhetoric of political openness promoted by the military dictatorship was locally appropriated. The aim was to address tensions arising from accelerated urbanization, migratory influx, and socioeconomic inequalities. The study argues that the new leadership of the ARENA party strategically employed programs such as Ação Comunitária. The purpose was to neutralize emerging conflicts and expand the party’s support base. Using printed sources, particularly the newspaper O Estado, the research demonstrates how mediation strategies were advanced by the municipal administration.

“Teaching the deaf-mute as well as those who hear and speak”: the Imperial Institute for the Deaf-Mute in question
type: item
description: This article aims to address the history of the Instituto Imperial de Surdos-Mudos (Imperial Institute for the Deaf Mutes), founded in 1856, and its operation at that time. It seeks to discuss the perception about the deaf people, which was directly influenced by European concepts that were developed and perpetuated throughout Brazil's history. The article aims to demonstrate that the exchange of ideas between Europe and Brazil fostered the creation of a pioneering educational space that sought to adapt teaching models to suit Brazilian realities. An example of this is the focus on meeting the demands of a labor market linked to rural areas, the country's main economic base. Additionally, the article raises the hypothesis that oralism was not a unanimous position among the members of the Institute, shaping a specific trajectory for the education of the deaf people in Brazil. The Institute's collection of official documents was the primary source of this investigation.

Animals of the borderland: other possible subjects to think the daily life in a border context (Fronteira Oeste/RS, second half of the 19th century)
type: item
description: This research explores the socio-cultural and economic dynamics of rural daily life on the western border of Rio Grande do Sul between 1851 and 1881, focusing on the towns of Alegrete, São Borja and Uruguaiana, with special attention to how domestic animals were important to daily life and its correlations to material culture elements. Located in the context of the consolidation of the frontiers of the Brazilian Empire, the region was characterized by an economy based on livestock, but also by emerging commercial activities, food production and services, configuring a space of intersection between the rural and the frontier. The research combines a quantitative approach - through the analysis of 168 inventories - with a micro-historical qualitative investigation. The results show the presence of different subjects and daily experiences that also included the existence and participation of animals in the formulation of rural and border daily life - in the transformation of space and social relations, acting as mediators between subjects and the environment, and the potential of this type of research topic in the field of History.

It is law in Brazil to be born free: freedom in ecclesiastical records, Palmas/Paraná
type: item
description: This article analyzes the impacts of the Law of Free Birth (1871) in the Campos de Palmas region, in the state of Paraná. The research is based on ecclesiastical baptism records from 1872 to 1888, in which 188 children born to enslaved women were identified. The aim of this study is to examine how the aforementioned law was applied in the region, how parish records began to be organized by the local priest, and how the legislation was interpreted by slaveholders. Beyond the Law of Free Birth, the study also seeks to understand other forms of access to freedom by enslaved individuals in the locality. The findings show that the legal framework of the time did not effectively guarantee freedom to those born of enslaved women, perpetuating relations of domination and control over their bodies and lives.

Voices and silences about children and women: discourses about HIV/aids in the press of Santa Catarina (1990-2000)
type: item
description: This study primarily focused on analyzing how women and children living with HIV/aids were portrayed in the press of Santa Catarina during the 1990s and 2000s. To achieve this, the research utilized the content analysis method proposed by Laurence Bardin (2011). The interpretation of the collected data was based on the theories of Herbert Daniel and Richard Parker (2018), which address the social dimension of the epidemic; Carmen Dora Guimarães (1996, 1990, 2001), who offers a perspective on women, particularly those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, living with the disease; and Erving Goffman (1988), who discusses the construction of stigmas and their impact on social relations. The research concluded that the printed media in Santa Catarina played a significant role in constructing social representations of HIV/aids, perpetuating gender stereotypes and stigmas, as well as attributing blame to the infected individuals.
