Resumo

O fogo e seus impactos sobre a biodiversidade e os recursos naturais tem se destacado nas discussões ligadas ao manejo das áreas protegidas. De outro lado, a viabilidade das unidades de conservação como locais de proteção da biodiversidade a longo prazo depende diretamente dos processos sociais e ecológicos que se dão em seu entorno, o que inclui o fogo. Na presente revisão, analisamos o tema buscando um maior entendimento a respeito do que determina o uso do fogo, assim como seu abuso pelas pessoas, e as soluções encontradas por elas para o manejo das vastas paisagens circunvizinhas às áreas de proteção. A tese defendida é a de que para haver efetivo controle do fogo e de seu uso é preciso que pesquisas multidisciplinares analisem as motivações e as formas de uso do fogo no contexto das realidades locais. Além disso, para que ocorram mudanças reais nesse cenário, são necessárias abordagens e metodologias participativas que enfoquem a experiência e os saberes de todos os atores sociais envolvidos na questão.
