          Translated abstract

          This article examines the conditions under which environmental activism emerged and evolved in Brazil from 1970 e 2006. The idea was to introduce a conceptual discussion on the relations between "opportunity structures", "political processes", and "individual involvement" in the emergence of mobilizations and collective protests. The methodology consisted of biographical interviews with three different generations of activists, focusing on the meanings associated with the use of academic training in activism, the principal modalities of militant careers, and the types of resources and social ties that support the activists' concepts and practices. The research showed that the period under study constitutes a milestone for the emergence of new patterns for reconverting university and professional training into militant resources for action in the "environmental field".

          Translated abstract

          Dans cet article, on examine les conditions du surgissement et des transformations du militantisme écologique au Brésil de 1970 à 2006. On cherche à discuter les concepts à partir des relations entre "structures d'opportunité", "processus politiques" et "engagement individuel" dans l'apparition de mobilisations et manifestations collectives. L'approche méthodologique se fait par des entretiens biographiques avec trois générations différentes d'activistes, afin d'examiner les significations associées à l'usage de la formation scolaire dans la militance, les principales modalités des carrières des militants et les types de moyens et de liens sociaux qui supportent les concepts et pratiques militantes des activistes. D'après la recherche, la période étudiée représente un point de surgissement de nouveaux modèles de transformation de la formation universitaire et professionnelle en ressources militantes pour agir dans "le domaine de l'environnement".
