The state of Pará is home to a significant portion of regional vegetation, and this opens the economic eye toward profitability - licit and illicit, that the forest can generate through logging. The Environmental Crimes Law was created to combat and punish environmental illicit such as illegal logging. In this sense, the general objective is to carry out the environmental economic analysis about the seizure of illegal wood from processes processed / judged and finalized under the jurisdiction of the archive of the Santarém Forum (PA), registered in the years 2006-2016. The data come from cataloging performed in the archive of the Forum of Santarém, tabulating: the year of infraction; the type of person who committed the crime; the type of charge seized - identifying the volume and the species (s); as well as the fine imposed by environmental agents and the final fine paid. From this, through statistical programs, the methodological technique of cost-benefit estimation of the illegal timber market was applied, which compared the estimated value of the load - environmental economic loss, with the fine that was paid by the offender after the final decision given by the judge. The analysis of the results was based on the specificity of Law 9.605 / 98 regarding illegal logging and, in Gary Becker's economic theory, focused on the analysis of criminal activities. In sum, it was observed in the results that the estimated value of the charge seized, in almost all cases was greater than the fine imposed, the latter can still be paid in installments, making the environmental recomposition is minimal. It is evident that if the initial penalty were applied, the offender's average profit margin would be approximately 31.74% in relation to the potential benefit, which, according to Becker's theory, would keep the illegal activity in full employment. operation. However, the results show that, on average, that profit margin of the potential crime benefit amount is approximately 67%, which makes logging illegally attractive and rewarding, as the 'potential benefit' of the activity has been quite higher than the economic costs of the penalties. Therefore, it is necessary to apply more effectively the Law on environmental crimes, as well as governance activities in relation to hiring more environmental agents to prevent, combat and seize loads that are out of illegality, as well as greater activity judiciary in judging cases.

Proposta de indicadores de desenvolvimento socioeconômico e ambientalmente/ecologicamente sustentável – o IDHA e o IDHE
(Companhia Brasileira de Produção Científica, 2018-08) CARVALHO, Rhayza Alves Figueiredo de; CARVALHO, Abner Vilhena de; TANAKA FILHO, Mario; ALMEIDA, Rodolfo Maduro; GUIMARÃES, Jarsen Luis Castro; BARROS, Márcio Júnior Benassuly; CARVALHO, Ednéa do Nascimento; CARVALHO, André Cutrim
This paper aims to propose the development of two indicators that incorporate the sustainable perspective in its methodological framework, from the inclusion of an environmental / ecological dimension, together with the other traditional dimensions of human development (standard of living, life expectancy and access to knowledge. ), in order to verify the importance that this environmental metric reflects in the analyzes of a broader development, filling a gap left by the traditional indicators, which do not consider the environmental dimension as an integral part of the analytical instrument. The inclusion of such a dimension is extremely relevant in the development and sustainability analysis, as it has a direct impact on the population's quality of life. Therefore, the environmental quantification is proposed through two indices: the Environmental Quality Index and the Ecological Footprint, which verify aspects of the quality of the environment as well as biophysical aspects. Then, these environmental indices will be incorporated into the economic (per capita income) and social (education and health) dimensions, allowing to identify the level of human development of a given locality. The results of the study allow us to analyze the level of environmental quality, as well as to indicate the level of human development, showing the essentiality of the environmental dimension in the construction of development indicators, especially of a sustainable nature, which may present itself as a factor that reduces or it increases the level of development of a locality when compared to different ones, allowing comparative analyzes by the ranking method or by the impact estimation through economic-environmental modeling.
