The systematic mapping of the production of theses and dissertations about the new forest code

Abstract: 

We propose with the writing of this text, a bibliographical survey, of the literature of the theses and dissertations type, through the catalog of CAPES, in order to understand the scientific production through graduate programs, about the new code forestry that came into force in 2012. The main objective of this work is to do a survey of master's and doctoral products in the last five years, in the national territory, after the last update. I use the principles of systemic review so that the work can take shape and analysis. In this sense, it is a method of bibliographical research using as methodology the systematic review, which seeks in a structured, organized and systematized way, to find scientific papers of impact that can serve as a basis for future work. To set up a systematic review survey, some criteria should be followed, including reference texts and standards, for the development of the study, then having the well-delimited research object, inclusion and exclusion criteria, search and ultimately defined the main databases to be searched. Thus the systemic review is a fundamental step for a scientific investigation, serving as a guide for the development of future studies, where we can systematize and analyze how studies are found in that area. For this research, I will use the thesis and dissertations bank of CAPES. As initial results, more than 500 papers were found, after applying the inclusion criteria and repeated works, restoring 38 works between theses and dissertations, to compose the portfolio in the period between 2012 and 2017. These works point, in a brief analysis, that the studies that deal with this theme are focused on the dimension of theories that support this area, as well as constructing reflections on the implementation processes of the new law, after approval, as well as critiques and evaluations of the construction process and contemporary demands.
