Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo deben dialogar hoy economistas y ecologistas? Aunque sus discursos parezcan opuestos, ambos buscan un mismo fin: el bienestar, y la felicidad de personas y sus comunidades. Desde la comprensión que el desarrollo contribuye a la felicidad y el bienestar, Economía, ecología y democracia: hacia un nuevo modelo de desarrollo propone una manera de pensar que armoniza economía y sostenibilidad ambiental, reconociendo que tanto el trabajo y sus ingresos, como el cuidado del medioambiente, son imprescindibles para el bienestar y la felicidad auténtica. Apuntando a nuevas políticas que consideren la democracia y la participación ciudadana como elementos centrales para avanzar en el desarrollo del país, este libro reúne ensayos de una veintena de investigadores e investigadoras que ayudan a responder preguntas sobre cómo debemos medir el desarrollo, cómo ponemos en marcha nuevas políticas económicas y sociales, cómo planificamos nuestras ciudades y cómo fortalecemos el mundo del trabajo. Provee así bases para una reflexión y la acción dirigida hacia el Chile del mañana.

Book Synopsis Ecología y capital by : Enrique Leff
Download or read book Ecología y capital written by Enrique Leff and published by Siglo XXI. This book was released on 1994 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La destrucción ecológica, la degradación ambiental y el deterioro de la calidad de vida de las mayorías aparece como un signo elocuente de los límites de la racionalidad económica sobre la cual se ha construido la civilización moderna. En la carrera desenfrenada del crecimiento económico se ha desterrado a la naturaleza de la esfera de la producción, subyugando las identidades culturales, socavando las bases de sustentabilidad ecológica del planeta y ensanchando las desigualdades sociales. Desde una postura crítica del discurso de la globalización y del desarrollo sostenible, Enrique Leff desentraña las raíces profundas de la crisis ambiental -crisis de la razón instrumental y de la racionalidad económica dominantes-- y elabora los fundamentos de un nuevo paradigma productivo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the challenges of Latin America in global environmental geopolitics. Written by leading experts, this book brings together Latin American research on global environmental change. They cover a range of topics such as climate change, water, forest and biodiversity conservation connected with science policies, public opinion, priorities of international funds, and international politics of Latin American countries. The book describes the discrepancy between the international priorities and the regional needs or country interests. It includes several case studies and analyses the cooperation in multilateral negotiations on climate change. It also offers a synthesis of debates around global environmental changes and Latin American politics, which the authors have previously promoted in different academic events in South America, including in Santiago de Chile in Chile, and Buenos Aires and Ushuaia in Argentina. This book assesses the environmental problems from different perspectives, highlights the scientific development in the environmental changes affecting Latin America and offers a new view on geopolitics to help face those issues. Specialist readers in international relations, political sciences, environmental sciences, geography and geopolitics will appreciate this up-to-date examination of Latin America and the global environmental change.
Book Synopsis Crossing Borders by : Kimberly M. Grimes
Download or read book Crossing Borders written by Kimberly M. Grimes and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1998-07-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Defining borders is a complex task, especially today as globalization accelerates at an unprecedented rate. We have entered a transnational age, one in which borders are more porous." So says Kimberly M. Grimes in Crossing Borders: Changing Social Identities in Southern Mexico, her investigation of migration to the United States from Putla de Guerrero, Oaxaca. Featuring testimonies of residents and migrants, Grimes allows local voices to describe the ways in which Putlecans find themselves negotiating among competing social values. The testaments of the Putlecans indicate that the changes occurring in their small town as a result of the circular migration to and from such immigrant enclaves as Atlantic City, New Jersey, are viewed with mixed emotions. Putlecans recognize the financial need to migrate north but they rue the increased consumerism, pollution, and trash that comes with the rising wealth. Men show off by driving their fancy cars with New Jersey tags around the tiny Mexican town, but influenced by Anglo culture, they also provide greater assistance in child care and housework. Women find the sexual and social freedoms of the United States liberating, but they still return home to baptize their babies. Grimes reminds us, however, that the Putlecans are not passive recipients of change but are actively embracing it, creating it, and mediating it. By reaching across the border to investigate migration, Grimes shows us that social and cultural change are not just the result of national and transnational influences, but are also locally negotiated phenomena.

Book Synopsis Índice de Felicidad y Buen Vivir by : Guillermo Rojas Quiceno
Download or read book Índice de Felicidad y Buen Vivir written by Guillermo Rojas Quiceno and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-09-09 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colombia ha vivido grandes crisis a través de los años; crisis que permiten, gracias al aprendizaje que ésta genera, el desarrollo humano y la esperanza espiritual para lograr una reflexión en la convivencia. El problema de pasar de una economía cafetera a una economía minera ha ocasionado, por ejemplo, que los recursos naturales sean hoy la base del mal llamado "desarrollo", "progreso" y "crecimiento". El texto, resultado del proceso de investigación de la tesis doctoral "El estado colombiano y el buen vivir, un proyecto político-educativo", muestra que el problema social de esta crisis civilizatoria es el camino para conscientizar las generaciones presentes, en la búsqueda de incrementar el índice de Felicidad y el Buen Vivir y, con ello, generar espacios que motiven una relación amigable entre el ser humano y la naturaleza. Este texto constituye su cuarto libro después de: "La vida y sus encrucijadas", "Rehenes del miedo" y "Colombia: política, encanto, amor y odio".
Book Synopsis The North American Mosaic by : Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat
Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
Book Synopsis Postdevelopment in Practice by : Elise Klein
Download or read book Postdevelopment in Practice written by Elise Klein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postdevelopment in Practice critically engages with recent trends in postdevelopment and critical development studies that have destabilised the concept of development, challenging its assumptions and exposing areas where it has failed in its objectives, whilst also pushing beyond theory to uncover alternatives in practice. This book reflects a rich and diverse range of experience in postdevelopment work, bringing together emerging and established contributors from across Latin America, South Asia, Europe, Australia and elsewhere, and it brings to light the multiple and innovative examples of postdevelopment practice already underway. The complexity of postdevelopment alternatives are revealed throughout the chapters, encompassing research on economy and care, art and design, pluriversality and buen vivir, the state and social movements, among others. Drawing on feminisms and political economy, postcolonial theory and critical design studies, the ‘diverse economies’ and ‘world of the third’ approaches and discussions on ontology and interdisciplinary fields such as science and technology studies, the chapters reveal how the practice of postdevelopment is already being carried out by actors in and out of development. Students, scholars and practitioners in critical development studies and those seeking to engage with postdevelopment will find this book an important guide to applying theory to practice.
Book Synopsis Reframing Latin American Development by : Ronaldo Munck
Download or read book Reframing Latin American Development written by Ronaldo Munck and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-09 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the year 2000 Latin America has been at the forefront of a series of diverse experiments with alternative forms, pathways and models of economic development and at the cutting edge of the international theoretical and political debates that surround these experiments. Reframing Latin American Development brings together leading scholars from Latin America and elsewhere to debate and discuss the current practice and futures of the Latin American experience with alternative forms of development over the last period and particularly since the end of neoliberal dominance. The models discussed range from the neo developmentalism approach of growth with equity, to the Buen Vivir (How to Live Well) philosophy advanced by the indigenous communities of the Andean highlands and implemented in the national development plans of the governments of Bolivia and Ecuador. Other models of alternative development include the so-called socialism of the twenty-first century and diverse proposals for constructing a social and solidarity economy and other models of local development based on the agency of community-based grassroots organizations and social movements. Reframing Latin American Development will be of particular interest to researchers, teachers and students in the fields of international development, Latin American studies and the economics, politics and sociology of development.
