摘要：

Brazil's new policy for Amazon development, called Avança Brasil, is based on a core strategy of road building and natural resource exploitation. As a result, it will stimulate frontier expansion into remote areas of the region and lead to uncontrolled deforestation and forest impoverishment. Avança Brasil should be linked to sustainable social and rural development policies geared toward improving the population's quality of life.
