- Abstract
This article discusses the relationship between the rubber tappers of the Amazon and the protection of the forests in the face of threats to the environment. Highlights the historical aspects of the category, from the labor exploitation processes in the rubber cycles to the forms of resistance of the Council of Extractive Populations located in the Médio Juruá River, Carauari/AM. The information was based on a bibliographic review and on the narratives of the people from this territory collected through the oral history technique. The analyses were based on Henri Lefebvre's conception about the production of space. Despite the economic boom, the rubber cycles were marked by the exploitation of the labor of rubber tappers and their families. The National Council of Extractive Populations (CNS) emerges as a form of resistance to this problem. Its role is to guarantee access to social rights for forest peoples, accompanying the actions of the State. These individuals acted locally for the consolidation of protected areas, ensuring improved quality of life and income generation. Thus, solidifying a socioenvironmental governance for the promotion of sustainability and socioenvironmental justice.
