Abstract
[Resumo] A finalidade deste artigo é “deconstruír” a traxectoria da educación ambiental (EA) para
intentar ir alén da visión histórica lineal, descontextualizada, sen suxeitos e sen conflitos,
que predomina na literatura deste campo. As versións institucionalizadas adoitan partir da
Conferencia de Estocolmo (1972) e rematar coa última celebración consagrada polo sistema
das Nacións Unidas, fito que lle corresponde, hoxe por hoxe, ao IV Congreso Internacional
sobre Educación Ambiental Tbilisi + 30, celebrado en Ahmedabad (India), no ano 2007.
Neste itinerario ocupa un lugar central, equivalente a un mito fundacional, a conferencia
celebrada en Tbilisi no ano 1977 e as recomendacións que nela se propuxeron. Con esta
aproximación histórico-crítica preténdese achegar algunha luz –ou, cando menos, unha
luz distinta– á tarefa de desentrañar e comprender a suposta –ou real– crise que se está a
vivir no campo da EA e o papel que xoga nesta conxuntura o mito de Tbilisi. Como recurso
metodolóxico adóptase unha aproximación analítica a medio camiño entre a arqueoloxía do
discurso foucaultiana e a socioanálise de Bourdieu. [Abstract] The purpose of this paper is to “deconstruct” the trajectory of Environmental Education (EE)
in order to try to go beyond the lineal historical view, decontextualized, without subjects and
without conflicts, that predominates in the literature on this field. The institutional versions
usually begin with the Stockholm Conference (1972) and finish with the last celebration
established by the United Nations system, a milestone that is nowadays held by the 4th
International Conference on Environmental Education Tbilisi + 30, held in Ahmedabad (India)
in the year 2007.
In this itinerary, a central position, equivalent to a founding myth, is held by the conference
that took place in Tbilisi in 1977 and the recommendations that came out of it. The goal of this
historical and critical approach is to shed some light -or at least a different light- on the task of
unraveling and understanding the alleged -or real- crisis that is being felt in the field of EE and
the role the myth of Tbilisi plays in this situation. As a methodological resource, the analytical
approach taken is halfway between Foucault’s archaeology of the discourse and Bourdieu’s
social analysis.
