Wrapped up in the contradictions of the global capitalism, it became objective of external pressures and interests, especially for the strategic and vital resources that it disposes for the planetary safety. The Pilot Program to Conserve the Brazilian Rain Forest (PPG-7) appears as an emblematic case of insertion of the Amazonian region in an effort of global governance, and this process is guided by a multiplicity of actors, coalitions and strategies. In this way, originated from the social and environmental engagement in the plan of the Brazilian civil society and from the transnational movements, PPG-7 is an important component to the new definition of the environmental politics in Brazil, enlarging the public system and contributing to the germination of a global civil society connected by networks in the Amazonian region.porAcesso AbertoGlobalizaçãoPrograma Piloto para a Proteção das Florestas Tropicais do BrasilDesenvolvimento sustentávelAmazônia brasileiraArtigo de Periódico
