Abstract
Several are the documents prepared on the occasion of national and international conferences on the environment. Part of these documents serves as a reference for Nations to draw up public policies for environmental protection and monitoring. However, the results of documentary production still leave much to be desired on the contents about the predatory nature of the advance on a global scale. The theoretical and documentary objective of the present study is to analyze the documents prepared at international conferences on environment and their consequences in the life of cities, focusing on problems of subjectivity and, more specifically, of desire. The theoretical part investigates the notion of sustainability, showing that the concern with nature involves relations between the population and the ways of life generated in the cities. In the part that deals with documents analysis, fragments of the Agenda 21 are analyzed as it relates specifically to the connection between sustainability, urban space and social mobilization. As a result, we see how the cities face the challenge of building sustainable lifestyles that have as a differential greater social and affective relations. Therefore, collective mobilization for populations with the desired ecological preservation becomes a challenge to be faced also by Psychology.
