Abstract
Este artigo examina as relações entre as características sociodemográficas das famílias de pequenos produtores na Amazônia e a hipótese do ciclo de vida no processo de tomada de decisão de desmatar. A análise foi conduzida combinando informações de sensoriamento remoto e de sistema de informações geográficas com dados primários de 153 pequenos produtores estabelecidos ao longo da rodovia Transamazônica. Análises de regressões foram efetuadas juntamente com testes de autocorrelação espacial. Os resultados levaram à conclusão de que as características sociodemográficas das famílias, bem como fatores institucionais e de mercado, influenciam a tomada de decisão de uso da terra. Esses resultados permitem concluir ainda que, apesar de não serem muito populares entre os cientistas sociais brasileiros, os dados obtidos através das imagens de satélite podem ser muito úteis neste tipo de estudo. Além disso, a pesquisa aqui apresentada indica que dados sociodemográficos da família, bem como os de mercado, podem resultar em problemas de má especificação do modelo. O mesmo se aplica a modelos que não incorporem análises espaciais.
This paper examines the relationships between the sociodemographic characteristics of small settlers in the Brazilian Amazon and the life cycle hypothesis in the process of deforestation. The analysis was conducted combining remote sensing and geographic data with primary data of 153 small settlers along the Transamazon Highway. Regression analyses and spatial autocorrelation tests were conducted. The results from the empirical model indicate that sociodemographic characteristics of households, as well as institutional and market factors, affect the land use decision. Although remotely sensed information are not yet very popular among Brazilian social scientists, these results confirm that they can be very useful for this kind of study. Furthermore, the research presented by this paper strongly indicates that family and sociodemographic data, as well as market data, may result in misspecification problems. The same applies to models that do not incorporate spatial analysis.
