| Sumario: | The multiple revolutions of the last 300 years have produced a technological development, that has materialized in a process of socioeconomic and cultural mutation which has ahead paths to be trodden that can promote benefits to humanity and the environment or lead to its destruction. The peoples of the forest, among them the indigenous, bring with them the knowledge that is at risk, both of disappearing and of being appropriate for purposes other than those currently used. This chapter sought, from an exploratory perspective and from a qualitative approach, to present some reflections to the problem involving which measures, and philosophical conceptions should guide the protection of knowledge of forest peoples and the biodiversity in which they are inserted. For that, aspects related to the current national and international regulatory framework directed to environmental protection were analyzed. In addition, it also analyzed aspects related to the economic value of biodiversity and knowledge of forest peoples, as well as the need to use new philosophical assumptions that integrate human ecology in its individual dimension, the environment, and social relations that involve human subjectivities, to present a new look, a new way to sociopolitical and legal treatment, the protection of these goods. |
