Dissertação (Mestrado) – Universidade Federal do Pará, Núcleo de Altos Estudos Amazônicos, Belém, 2013. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Trópico Úmido.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/5399This study presents discussions on deforestation in the Amazon, especially in the state of Pará, in the period 1987-2012, from the corpus of editions of Jornal Pessoal, authored by Lúcio Flávio Pinto. We seek to verify the placement, Jornal Pessoal speech in the debate about deforestation, and the State action in this matter. For analysis of the corpus, we use the analysis of discourse, constituted on interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological approach. It appears that the positioning of Jornal Pessoal is critical and reflective, since the argumentative discourse makes use of discursive strategies as the legitimacy of speech, interpellation, and the interaction with the reader. It is observed that Jornal Pessoal, to discuss the actions taken by the State to combat deforestation in Pará, shows that such actions go further in creating instruments of control and legal mechanisms, showing that the effective actions are far removed from the tow deforestation to an environmental policy committed and serious, demonstrating the inertia of the State in combating this practices.porAcesso AbertoJornalismo alternativoJornal PessoalDesmatamentoMeio ambientePará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::COMUNICACAO::JORNALISMO E EDITORACAO::JORNALISMO ESPECIALIZADO (COMUNITARIO, RURAL, EMPRESARIAL, CIENTIFICO)
