description This paper intends to justify the theory of legal pluralism for studying environmental health issues. The positive law approach has made some headway, although some areas of environmental health seem to be incipient. Hard law has encountered difficulties to succeed in enforcing industrial pollution or water contamination. Furthermore, national jurisdictions are prone to support particular economic interests. This conundrum of legal positivism encourages challenging it with the theory of pluralism. It is found that the latter might allow deliberation and active participation of non-state actors within environmental health. It is also discussed that the plurality of law allows certain flexibility due to its little hierarchization, the lack of theoretical rules and the relaxation of state sovereignty.

Embora o direito positivo tenha apresentado certos avanços, existem algumas áreas da saúde ambiental que se encontram em um estado incipiente. As normas estatais manifestaram dificuldades para conseguir seu cumprimento em matéria de contaminação industrial ou da água, ao que se soma o fato de que as jurisdições nacionais tendem a privilegiar interesses econômicos particulares. Esse problema do positivismo fomenta seu confronto com a teoria do pluralismo legal e nota-se que tal aproximação teórica permite a deliberação e a participação ativa de agentes não estatais na esfera da saúde ambiental. Este documento também coloca em discussão que uma abordagem pluralista do direito poderia outorgar certa flexibilidade devido à pouca hierarquização, à falta de regras teóricas e ao abrandamento do princípio da soberania estatal.Este artículo pretende justificar la teoría del pluralismo jurídico para el estudio de la problemática de la salud ambiental.
