ABSTRACT
Ecology of
development: Family, school and
public policies
An ecological development
perspective implies in investigating
the development of an active human
being and the relations with the
properties of its immediate and remote
environments. The research on
traditional populations besides
revealing the forms of interdependence
characteristic of certain development
ecosystems, may favor the
implementation of public policies to
overcome poverty. Part of the studies
of our research group (Laboratory of
Ecology Development / UFPA- Brazil)
will be presented. Quantitative and
qualitative methods were used. Aspects
of family structure and organization,
the typicality of mesossystem relation
between school and family and the
impact of public policies
(macrossystem), particularly, the
"family allowance" will be described.
Despite the profound impacts of the
family allowance program in the income
recovery, it is concluded that their
impact is insignificant in relation to
the increase in school influence in
the routine of the children.
