| description | Abstract The urban becomes fundamental in the reconciliation of environmental issues given the current global urbanization. This study aims to pursue guidelines for developing a methodological approach that enlightens the relations between deforestation and urbanization in the Amazon. Considering the intense urban transition undergoing in the region, a systematic review was conducted to understand the state of knowledge and challenges of this scope. The analysis highlighted four investigative perspectives with relevant contributions, which could be better articulated with adjustments in the analysis system, an urban conceptual reformulation, and also with variables sensitive to socio-spatial dynamics. Approaches to social theory of mobility and risk have supported the design of an urban critical theory in line with the multidimensionality and transscalarity of the urban fabric socio-landscapes. By adding analytical perspectives from the spatial demography field, the study presents a theoretical-methodological framework to approach the contemporary interface between deforestation and urbanization. |
