In fact, its systematic destruction can find its roots heavily in the policies of the Brazilian military dictatorship from 1964 to 1985. While historians have studied Brazil’s dictatorial government’s harm to the Amazon, environmentalists have documented ecological deforestation, and scholars have reported Indigenous displacement, existing scholarship fails to recognize these as interconnected historical processes relating to Brazil’s colonial history....
