GRILAGEM DIGITAL NA AMAZÔNIA: TECNOLOGIA, DADOS TERRITORIAIS E RECONFIGURAÇÕES DA GOVERNANÇA FUNDIÁRIA

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This article analyzes the reconfiguration of land grabbing in the Amazon in light of contemporary technological transformations, proposing the analytical category of “digital land grabbing” to understand the incorporation of geospatial tools, information systems, and data infrastructures into territorial appropriation dynamics. It is based on the assumption that land grabbing, historically structuring Brazilian land tenure formation, has assumed new configurations in the digital era, operating not only through physical occupation and traditional document fraud but also through the production, insertion, and manipulation of data within official systems. The methodology is qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive, based on interdisciplinary literature review and documentary analysis of legal norms, institutional reports, and geospatial datasets, especially those produced by the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). The findings indicate that technologies such as the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), georeferencing systems, and satellite imagery have an ambivalent character, contributing both to strengthening territorial governance and to legitimizing illegal land occupations. The study concludes that technology is not neutral, but rather a vector that reshapes power relations over the Amazon territory, requiring the development of a digital governance framework guided by transparency, inclusion, and socio-environmental justice.

A COSMOVISÃO DOS POVOS ORIGINÁRIOS E A EMERGÊNCIA DO DIREITO ECOLÓGICO

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This research aimed to analyze how the cosmovision of Indigenous peoples contributes to overcoming the structural limitations of traditional Environmental Law and to the consolidation of Ecological Law, grounded in a new ecocentric legal paradigm. It sought to demonstrate that the contemporary environmental crisis is not solely the result of normative or institutional deficiencies, but also stems from anthropocentric epistemological and axiological foundations that have subordinated the protection of nature to instrumental human interests. The study also intended to examine the theoretical foundations of Ecological Law and to identify its convergences with Indigenous knowledge systems, particularly with regard to interdependence, reciprocity, and the recognition of the intrinsic value of nature. The methodology adopted was the deductive method, starting from general premises concerning the global ecological crisis and the shortcomings of classical Environmental Law, and subsequently analyzing the emergence of the theoretical proposal of Ecological Law and its articulation with Indigenous cosmovisions. This is a bibliographic and documentary study, with a qualitative approach, based on the analysis of doctrinal works, academic productions, normative documents, and Latin American constitutional experiences. In conclusion, it was found that the cosmovisions of Indigenous peoples offer ontological and epistemological foundations capable of influencing and enriching the proposal of Ecological Law, by conceiving nature as a living and relational entity. It was concluded that the incorporation of such knowledge promotes the reorientation of legal rationality toward ecological integrity, intergenerational justice, and the protection of life in all its forms.

DEFICIT OF CRIMINAL PROTECTION IN THE NON-COMPLIANCE WITH PROTECTIVE MEASURES FOR THE ELDERLY: A PROPOSAL FOR A MICROSYSTEM FOR VULNERABLE GROUPS

Ailton Luiz dos Santos, Rômulo Garcia Barros Silva , Márcio José Souza Leite — Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This article is situated within the context of the discussion on the legal protection of vulnerable groups in Brazil, addressing the gaps in the Elderly Statute (Law No. 10.741/2003), particularly regarding the absence of adequate criminal provisions for the noncompliance with protective measures granted in favor of elderly individuals, which results in a deficit in criminal protection against violence targeting this group. The main objective is to analyze technical and legal solutions for the creation of a microsystem for the protection of vulnerable individuals, assessing its impacts and highlighting the current normative deficiency arising from the lack of effective criminal sanctions for the violation of such measures. Methodologically, a qualitative approach is adopted, based on bibliographic review, recent jurisprudential analysis, and the collection of empirical perceptions from legal and public security professionals in the State of Amazonas. The results confirm that the current criminal classification under Article 101 of the Elderly Statute or the crime of disobedience (Article 330 of the Brazilian Penal Code) is insufficient, leading to frequent recidivism and legal insecurity. It is concluded that there is an urgent need to create a specific criminal offense within the Elderly Statute. The legislative proposal resulting from this study was submitted, in technical-academic collaboration, to Federal Deputy Capitão Alberto Neto (PL/AM), who expressed interest in formally presenting it to the Chamber of Deputies, demonstrating the potential of applied research in legislative transformation aimed at protecting the elderly, culminating in the submission of Bill No. 2385/2025, currently under consideration in the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies.

Keywords: human rights; elderly persons; protective measures; criminal protection; public security.

Urban Drainage, Water Degradation, And Violation Of The Fundamental Right to an Ecologically Balanced Environment: Igarapés As Sewage Receivers In Manaus (Am)

Fernanda Carolina Monteiro de Salles, Paula Talita Monteiro de Salles — Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This article analyzes the transformation of urban streams (igarapés) in Manaus into sewage receivers, relating this process to the urban drainage structure and the insufficiency of basic sanitation policies. It is based on the hypothesis that the use of these watercourses as informal infrastructure for wastewater disposal constitutes a violation of the fundamental right to an ecologically balanced environment. The research adopts a qualitative approach, grounded in documentary analysis of legislation, urban plans, and specialized literature. The theoretical framework articulates contributions from critical geography, particularly regarding the production of space, with the theory of fundamental rights and environmental justice. The results indicate that the degradation of igarapés is not merely a consequence of irregular settlements, but rather an expression of a model of urbanization that externalizes environmental costs to socially vulnerable territories. It is concluded that the lack of effectiveness of sanitation policies in Manaus reveals a structural failure of public authorities, with relevant legal implications in the field of urban environmental law.

DESINFORMAÇÃO DIGITAL E EROSÃO DEMOCRÁTICA: DESAFIOS DO DIREITO FRENTE ÀS NOVAS DINÂMICAS TECNOLÓGICAS

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Analisa criticamente os impactos da desinformação digital na democracia contemporânea, compreendendo-a como elemento estruturante das dinâmicas de produção da realidade social em ambientes tecnologicamente mediados. Examina de que forma a circulação de conteúdos manipulados, associada à lógica algorítmica das plataformas digitais, influencia a formação da opinião pública, intensifica a polarização política e fragiliza os mecanismos tradicionais de mediação democrática. Adota metodologia de natureza teórico-analítica, com abordagem qualitativa, baseada em revisão bibliográfica especializada nos campos do Direito, da teoria política e da comunicação digital, utilizando procedimento interpretativo dedutivo para articular categorias consolidadas na análise das transformações contemporâneas. Investiga, nesse contexto, os limites das respostas jurídicas tradicionais frente à complexidade das novas dinâmicas tecnológicas, destacando as tensões entre regulação estatal e proteção da liberdade de expressão. Identifica que o Direito, em sua configuração clássica, apresenta dificuldades em responder de forma eficaz à desinformação digital, sobretudo diante da descentralização dos fluxos informacionais e da atuação de plataformas como novos centros de poder normativo. Discute, ainda, a necessidade de reconfiguração das estruturas jurídicas e institucionais, de modo a conciliar a proteção das garantias fundamentais com a preservação da integridade democrática. Conclui, em caráter preliminar, que o enfrentamento da desinformação exige abordagens regulatórias mais complexas, que integrem dimensões normativas e sociopolíticas, evitando tanto a omissão estatal quanto intervenções que comprometam o pluralismo e a liberdade no espaço público digital contemporâneo.

MEANINGS PRODUCED BY THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY REGARDING THE MANAGEMENT OF THE MILITARY POLICE IN A STATE SCHOOL TEN YEARS AFTER ITS IMPLEMENTATION

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This research is an interdisciplinary investigation, from a historical-cultural perspective, aiming to investigate the meanings produced by the community regarding the management of the Amazonas Military Police in a State School located on the outskirts of the West Zone of Manaus (Amazonas), ten years after its implementation. The methodological approach adopted is qualitative, with a descriptive-explanatory character, developed through field research, bibliographic and documentary review. Data collection was carried out using the focus group technique, involving 12 participants, including former students, teachers, former employees, parents of former students, and community residents. For analysis and interpretation, the methodological procedure of meaning nuclei was used. The results indicated conflicts between education and gang activity. Students stated that the school shaped their critical thinking skills, forming conscious, disciplined, and responsible citizens. However, the data analysis revealed a progressive distancing between the school and the residents of the neighborhood where it is located.

DISCURSO, PODER E JURISDIÇÃO: UMA ANÁLISE FOUCAULTIANA DA EFETIVIDADE DA JUSTIÇA NO NOVO CÓDIGO DE PROCESSO CIVIL

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A pesquisa examina como o discurso jurídico-processual estruturado pelo Código de Processo Civil de 2015 produz regimes de verdade que definem a efetividade da justiça no interior da jurisdição contemporânea. Analisa o tema como prática discursiva que reorganiza racionalidades, distribui posições e orienta formas de interpretação, tomando a efetividade não como atributo neutro, mas como resultado de operações que modulam o alcance dos enunciados e modelam expectativas institucionais. O objetivo consiste em investigar como tais mecanismos discursivos estabilizam sentidos, condicionam a produção das decisões e influenciam a experiência dos sujeitos que acionam o sistema de justiça. A metodologia emprega análise qualitativa de caráter teórico-crítico, baseada na leitura sistemática de dispositivos normativos e na identificação de regularidades enunciativas que indicam modos de funcionamento da racionalidade processual. A pesquisa interpreta as práticas que estruturam a cooperação, os precedentes vinculantes e o tratamento das demandas repetitivas como tecnologias que organizam o campo decisório e reforçam determinadas formas de governo dos litígios. Os resultados preliminares indicam que a efetividade da justiça se constitui como construção discursiva sustentada por combinações entre técnica, linguagem e expectativas institucionais, revelando tensões que atravessam o processo civil e que redefinem a sensibilidade interpretativa da jurisdição. Assim, o estudo contribui para ampliar a compreensão dos efeitos produzidos por tais práticas e para evidenciar a necessidade de abordagens que reconheçam a complexidade das relações entre discurso e poder na produção jurídica. Essas observações permitem aprofundar debates emergentes e fortalecer análises críticas sobre a dinâmica institucional que orienta a justiça contemporânea brasileira.
