Summary: | Among the socioenvironmental researchers, it is recognized that the solution to environmental problems relies ongovernment policies, which should correct market distortions and promote progress towards sustainability bymeans of a regulatory reform. This, however, has not been studied and implemented in a systematic way, especiallyin developing countries. The present article aims to contribute to this discussion, establishing a taxonomy of themain aspects of this transition as described by the international literature. Using literature review as methodology,the main arguments have been selected and arranged in a taxonomy consisting of 33 categories of action (regulation“objectives”), which were grouped into six transition “aspects”. In the end, a brief discussion is held, andconclusions are made in order to contribute to future studies on how these aspects have been practiced in Brazil.
