Abstract

Este artigo oferece uma discussão teórica sobre urbanização, natureza e desenvolvimento e algumas relações possíveis entre esses temas e conceitos. Discutimos algumas questões e dinâmicas subjacentes ao nosso projeto de desenvolvimento atual, definido como industrialização capitalista. O artigo ilustra o papel das cidades para o desenvolvimento humano e, em seguida, argumenta que a relação entre sociedade e natureza poderia ser - e de fato já foi - pensada numa perspectiva diferente. Finalmente, o artigo discute a transição da categoria teórica "campesinato" para a categoria de comunidade tradicional, e como essa transição é influenciada pelo processo de urbanização extensiva pela qual o Brasil passou nas décadas recentes. Argumenta que tal transição é parte da formação de resistências e pode contribuir para a reflexão sobre um modelo potencial para um desenvolvimento alternativo e, potencialmente, para a utopia urbana de Lefebvre.
