Book excerpt: This text analyzes indigenous peoples' processes of identity construction as ecological natives. It opens space for reconstructing all the different networks, conditions of emergence, and implications (political, cultural, social and economic) of one specific event: the consolidation of the relationship between indigenous peoples and environmentalism. This text is based on ethnographic information and focused on the historical process of the emergence of indigenous peoples' movements in Latin America, in general, and indigenous peoples of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta do Columbia (SNSM), in particular. It demonstrates the process of the construction of indigenous peoples' environmental identities as an interplay of local, national and transnational dynamics among indigenous peoples and environmental movements and discourses in relation to global environmental policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis Defending the Land of the Jaguar by : Lane Simonian
Download or read book Defending the Land of the Jaguar written by Lane Simonian and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexican conservationists have sometimes observed that it is difficult to find a country less interested in the conservation of its natural resources than is Mexico. Yet, despite a long history dedicated to the pursuit of development regardless of its environmental consequences, Mexico has an equally long, though much less developed and appreciated, tradition of environmental conservation. Lane Simonian here offers the first panoramic history of conservation in Mexico from pre-contact times to the current Mexican environmental movement. He explores the origins of conservation and environmental concerns in Mexico, the philosophies and endeavors of Mexican conservationists, and the enactment of important conservation laws and programs. This heretofore untold story, drawn from interviews with leading Mexican conservationists as well as archival research, will be important reading throughout the international community of activists, researchers, and concerned citizens interested in the intertwined issues of conservation and development.

Book Synopsis Global Entangled Inequalities by : Elizabeth Jelin
Download or read book Global Entangled Inequalities written by Elizabeth Jelin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents studies from across Latin America to take up the challenge of exploring the plurality of social inequalities from a global perspective. Accordingly, it identifies the structural forces of social inequalities on a world scale as they shape asymmetries observed in a wide array of phenomena, such as racial and gender inequality, urbanization, migration, commodity production, indigenous mobilization, ecological conflicts, and the "new middle class". A rich contribution to the study of the interconnections between the global social structure and multiple local and national hierarchies, Global Entangled Inequalities brings consistently together a variety of conceptual approaches, ranging from ethnographies to legal genealogies, and will therefore appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in social theory, power analysis, intersectionality studies, urban studies, and global social and environmental justice.

Book Synopsis Ordinary Places/Extraordinary Events by : Clara Irazábal
Download or read book Ordinary Places/Extraordinary Events written by Clara Irazábal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-01-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clara Irazábal and her contributors explore the urban history of some of Latin America’s great cities through studies of their public spaces and what has taken place there. The avenues and plazas of Mexico City, Havana, Santo Domingo, Caracas, Bogotaì, SaÞo Paulo, Lima, Santiago, and Buenos Aires have been the backdrop for extraordinary, history-making events. While some argue that public spaces are a prerequisite for the expression, representation and reinforcement of democracy, they can equally be used in the pursuit of totalitarianism. Indeed, public spaces, in both the past and present, have been the site for the contestation by ordinary people of various stances on democracy and citizenship. By exploring the use and meaning of public spaces in Latin American cities, this book sheds light on contemporary definitions of citizenship and democracy in the Americas.

Book Synopsis Introducción a la Investigación en Geografía by : DE LÁZARO Y TORRES María Luisa

This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La creciente importancia de la investigación en geografía se hace patente desde los primeros años de la formación universitaria hasta la realización de los Trabajos Fin de Grado (TFG) y Máster (TFM), e incluso en los inicios de la tesis doctoral. Aspectos esenciales de la misma responden al modelo IMRyD. Así, los capítulos 1 y 2 se ocupan de la contextualización de la ciencia, de interés para la Introducción; los capítulos 3 y 4 aconsejan sobre el manejo de datos de distintas fuentes, empleando diferentes técnicas, de gran utilidad para abordar una Metodología cuyos Resultados respondan a los objetivos de investigación; y, por último, la Discusión, que supone valorar la relevancia de la propia investigación y contrastarla con la de otros autores. Los dos últimos capítulos se ocupan de cómo redactar el informe final y cómo citar. No puede faltar un enfoque de sostenibilidad, que se desarrolla como broche final del libro, en el último anexo, que hace referencia a los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible bajo el título: «Los ODS como elementos transversales esenciales en la investigación».
