Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toward a Culture of Nature is a comprehensive study of Cuba's environmental policy, specifically the response of the Cuban government to the collapse of the Soviet Union and subsequent shortage of petroleum products. Pamela Stricker analyzes Cuba's transition to sustainable models of agriculture, efforts toward energy independence using renewable resources, the adoption of "green" medicine, a framework law on environmental protection, the impact of tourism and foreign investment on the island, incorporation of environmental education, and the crafting of a culture of nature, that is, a Cuban environmental ethics of sustainable development. Going beyond the standard accounts of formal legislation and executive institutions, Professor Stricker pays special attention to the scientists and activists who worked in all capacities (governmental and non-governmental) to bring about change to the environmental policies. Spanning the second half of the twentieth-century, Toward a "Culture of Nature" is an important case study of environmental policy, ethics, and sustainable development.

Download or read book Naturalizar la cultura, normalizar la naturaleza written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durante las últimas décadas hemos asistido a una degradación sin precedentes de nuestro entorno y, pareja a la misma, a un aumento continuado de la preocupación social por el medio ambiente El crecimiento acelerado y el fuerte desarrollo económico abrieron, a finales de los sesenta, una reflexión acerca de los efectos no deseados de la industrialización y del posible agotamiento de los recursos naturales. Desde las primeras voces disonantes, que denunciaban los excesos de la intervención humana en el entorno, hasta nuestros días, hemos vivido una auténtica transformación de nuestras percepciones, caracterizada por la definición de una nueva realidad marcada por la impronta ecológica. Esta tesis se centra en ver cómo se ha articulado el complejo fenómeno medio ambiental en el nivel de las prácticas, discursos e instituciones. En este sentido se considera central el proceso de normalización e institucionalización de lo ecológico que ha conllevado una reducción tanto de la polifonía como de un control de los espacios sociales, discursivos y naturales. Desde esta premisa, se analiza cómo construimos socialmente nuestras relaciones con el entorno. Dichas relaciones se caracterizan por la complejidad y la dificultad a la hora de concebirlas. El medio ambiente nos obliga a repensarnos a nos-otros, con los otros; con lo de dentro y con lo de fuera; con lo natural y lo artificial; con lo humano, lo animal y lo tecnológico; o, si se prefiere, nos empuja a la producción de nuevas categorías básicas de significado. Así, se estudia cómo se articula el medio ambiente a través de prácticas, discursos e instituciones, cómo se construyen a través de él los mapas cognitivos que orientan nuestro universo simbólico, cómo representamos a nuestro mundo con categorías que se mudan, y cómo, al fin y al cabo, integramos en estructuras de sentido los acontecimientos (ecológicos) que nos obligan a reformularlas.

This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estamos proyectando el análisis de una metamorfosis global en la actualidad, como los cambios de identidades en el proceso de transformación cultural. En consecuencia, buscamos un concepto de intercambio cultural, como una síntesis de diferentes factores y dimensiones en el mundo multi e intercultural. Igualmente, queremos enfocar los elementos etnoecológicos, tanto regionales como globales, para el establecimiento de una visión holística y armoniosa. Además, planeamos desarrollar criterios para una Didáctica de la Cosmovisión con paradigmas nuevos del Metabolismo Cultural como una opción frente al camino actual en el marco de la globalización, concebido como unidimensional y unidireccional, que conduce a un callejón sin salida por la realización de cierta monocultura, una tendencia central, monopólica, racional, fragmentada y material que cosifica el mundo. Lograrlo implica investigar horizontes hacia una concientización y la búsqueda de una convivencia integrativa, armónica e interrelacionada, complementaria que sirva de inspiración en el sentido de un Metabolismo Cultural, como una fórmula y síntesis para convivir en un marco globalizante, sin perder la heterogeneidad de las singularidades del regionalismo biológico y cultural, algo propio de las unidades, que da sentido y función de la sustentabilidad contundente en una totalidad (Holón) continua.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this original study, Gabriel Horowitz examines the work of select nineteenth- and twentieth-century Latin American writers through the lens of contemporary theoretical debates about nature, postcoloniality, and national identity. In the work of José Martí, Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, Jorge Luis Borges, Augusto Roa Bastos, Cesar Aira, and others, he traces historical constructions of nature in regional intellectual traditions and texts as they inform political culture on the broader global stage. By investigating national literary discourses from Cuba, Argentina, and Paraguay, he identifies a common narrative thread that imagines the utopian wilderness of the New World as a symbolic site of independence from Spain. In these texts, Horowitz argues, an expressed desire to return to the nation’s foundational nature contributed to a movement away from political and social engagement and toward a “biopolitical state,” in which nature, traditionally seen as pre-political, conversely becomes its center.

Book excerpt: Para los magos del Renacimiento, el mundo era inteligible, creativo y significativo. El desarrollo de la ciencia comenzó ofreciéndonos un mundo inteligible que no tiene significado en sí mismo. Nuevos desarrollos científicos, que trascendieron los parámetros del pensamiento lógico, condujeron a recuperar un significado “holístico” que había quedado reprimido. Desde un punto de vista metafórico, forzosamente esquemático, podríamos decir que esas tres “épocas” –que, por otra parte, no quedaron divididas por murallas infranqueables, de modo que se interpenetraron recíprocamente– corresponden a los tres procesos, primario, secundario y terciario, descriptos por el psicoanálisis. Este libro, pues, se divide en tres partes. En la primera, se menciona una actitud mágica rica en la apreciación de contenidos inconscientes que brindan fundamento y motivo a los desarrollos del pensamiento humano. En la segunda, se hace alusión a la primera etapa del desarrollo científico, que abordó con entusiasmo la tarea de convertir la realidad en un suceso inteligible. En la tercera, se expone la recuperación de lo que había quedado reprimido en los primeros desarrollos científicos y ha vuelto por sus fueros. Es en esta última donde el autor profundiza acerca de lo que Katya Mandoki (en su libro El indispensable exceso de la estética) denomina culturaleza: la relación, inexorable y recíproca, que se establece como un intercambio (“matrimonial” y “patrimonial”) entre naturaleza y cultura. Allí queda puesto en evidencia que el sujeto no existe separado de las relaciones que establece con su entorno, y que natura y cultura son dos aspectos de una misma cosa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abiayalan Pluriverses: Bridging Indigenous Studies and Hispanic Studies looks for pathways that better connect two often siloed disciplines. This edited collection brings together different disciplinary experiences and perspectives to this objective, weaving together researchers, artists, instructors, and authors who have found ways of bridging Indigenous and Hispanic studies through trans-Indigenous reading methods, intercultural dialogues, and reflections on translation and epistemology. Each chapter brings rich context that bears on some aspect of the Indigenous Americas and its crossroads with Hispanic studies, from Canada to Chile. Such a hemispheric and interdisciplinary approach offers innovative and significant means of challenging the coloniality of Hispanic studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion and Politics: New Developments Worldwide features ten articles about recent developments in the interaction of Religion and Politics in various countries of Asia, Africa, Europe, and both North and South America. Most articles focus on one country, and including China, South Korea, India, Nigeria, Malaysia, France, and Cuba. Others address issues across regions such as Latin America, Southeast Asia, or the Middle East. The fifteen contributors are scholars from diverse disciplines as well as diverse regions of Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Subjects include the Indian government’s favoritism for Hinduism over rival religions; the way the Sikhs of India avoid the religion–politics divide; the way the Western media fails to fully understand the Chinese government’s policies on religious minorities; the aftermath of the Charlie Hebdo demonstrations in France; religious attitudes toward tax politics in South Korea as well as among Christians compared to Muslims; how to lessen the radicalization of Muslims in Southeast Asia; whether Nigeria should encourage its Muslims to be active in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation; the spiritual role played by the permaculture movement in Cuba; and how the former tendency of scholars to polarize religion and politics is no longer viable, especially in Latin America.

Book excerpt: Aunque la realidad es mucho más profunda. El potencial cuántico es lo que permite la interconexión y forma el sistema en el que se desenvuelve toda la situación conjunta. A partir de experimentos constatados en el subterfugio de las partículas elementales, se concluye tajantemente, que todo se halla interrelacionado con todo, que no hay nada separado de nada, que la filosofía nunca concluirá nada, y que todo lo que percibimos, más allá de lo que nos hagan creer nuestros sentidos y nuestra mente, no es sino la forma o expresión que nos remite a una realidad primordial que algunos no dudan en nombrar como conciencia. Una conciencia que se origina en el único cerebro que la naturaleza nos suministró con carencias, un gigantesco resorte que absorbe y disipa energía, y vibra en su propia frecuencia de ineficiencia, y para su completamiento, precisa con urgencia la intervención de la ciencia, que es la única que puede proveerlo, extranatura, de un episentido.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mercè Rius, pone de manifiesto en este estudio que la obra de Eugenio d'Ors conectaba con los debates filosóficos del siglo XX mediante hilos mucho más finos que los percibidos inicialmente. Hoy se ratifica en su creciente estimación, sobre todo frente a aquellos cuya empedernida ignorancia llega al colmo de negarle todavía la credencial de filósofo. A través de esta investigación, la autora trata de mostrar que D'Ors, ni se equivocaba ni obraba de mala fe al considerarse ante todo filósofo. Para ello, realiza un balance de la filosofía orsiana resituándola en un horizonte más vasto tras descubrirle nuevos aspectos, cuyas afinidades con otros autores contemporáneos de tradición europea sugieren el alto nivel y la oportunidad histórica del pensamiento orsiano.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An anthology of nature writing by people of color, providing deeply personal connections to—or disconnects from—nature.” —NPR From African American to Asian American, indigenous to immigrant, “multiracial” to “mixed-blood,” the diversity of cultures in this world is matched only by the diversity of stories explaining our cultural origins: stories of creation and destruction, displacement and heartbreak, hope and mystery. With writing from Jamaica Kincaid on the fallacies of national myths, Yusef Komunyakaa connecting the toxic legacy of his hometown, Bogalusa, LA, to a blind faith in capitalism, and bell hooks relating the quashing of multiculturalism to the destruction of nature that is considered “unpredictable”—among more than thirty-five other examinations of the relationship between culture and nature—this collection points toward the trouble of ignoring our cultural heritage, but also reveals how opening our eyes and our minds might provide a more livable future.
