%X The search for a sustainable model of development for the Brazilian Amazon has underpinned an increasing number of public policy decisions and new legislation governing how land is managed in order to conserve and maintain ecosystem functions and services. Socio-environmentalism constitutes a relatively recent paradigm of Brazilian public policy that emerged in the 1990s as a response to poorly planned infrastructure projects and continued deforestation that undermined the conservation of biodiversity and the resilience of the socioecological system established by traditional and indigenous communities. However, the rapid development of agribusiness across many parts of the region, together with a large number of new major infrastructure developments including mega-dams, roads and large mining projects, continues to generate conflict with traditional populations and smallholders and cause widespread ecological degradation. This chapter presents an overview of land use systems in the Brazilian Amazon and analyses two development models associated with starkly different historical trajectories of landscape change: landscapes dominated by community-based projects and small farmers (termed social-nature landscapes, strongly influenced by the socio-environmentalist movement) and landscapes dominated by large-scale agriculture (neo-nature landscapes, strongly influenced by the agribusiness sector). We discuss the social and ecological implications of these two contrasting models for sustainable development in the region.
