This book was released on 2008-01-18 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente libro analiza las normas de la Unión Europea, del Estado Español y de la Comunidad Valenciana que regulan la gestión urbanística, así como la jurisprudencia del TJCE, del Tribunal de Primera Instancia de la Unión Europea y del TEDH, por un lado, y del TC, del TS y del TSJCV, por otro, que versan sobre tal cuestión, haciendo especial hincapié en su incidencia en las diversas formas, directas e indirectas, de la mencionada gestión (de entes públicos y de particulares, propietarios y no propietarios), así como en la exigencia de aplicación de la normativa contractual pública y la garantía del derecho de propiedad privada. Ello, con la finalidad de proporcionar al ámbito académico y al de los operadores jurídicos una visión lo más completa posible de dicha temática, que pueda ser útil para la interpretación y aplicación de dicho Derecho en su hacer cotidiano. Pero también con el objetivo de suministrar la base para examinar el conflicto suscitado por la Resolución del Parlamento Europeo de 5 de diciembre de 2005 (adoptada sobre la base del Informe Fourtou) y por la apertura por la Comisión Europea a España, mediante la Carta de emplazamiento de 21 de marzo de 2005, de un expediente de infracción del Derecho Comunitario, como consecuencia de que la legislación urbanística valenciana no respeta las normas sobre contratos públicos de la Unión. Y, en relación con el Derecho Valenciano, se expone, en especial, con gran grado de detalle, la regulación de la referida gestión a partir de la exégesis en dicho Derecho de la distinción entre actuaciones integradas y actuaciones aisladas, pasando por la cuestión de la distribución de las cesiones y de los gastos y demás cargas de la urbanización, hasta llegar al estudio de los procedimientos de adjudicación de los PAIS y PAAS y de la condición de agente urbanizador de los mismos, por un lado, así como de la posición de empresario constructor, por otro.

Book excerpt: Esta monografía analiza en el régimen jurídico de la planificación urbanística, incidiendo en su conexión con la ordenación territorial y ambiental, desde su puesta en valor para la consecución del desarrollo sostenible, del necesario equilibrio entre un desarrollo económico y social ordenado y la protección de los recursos naturales, tarea en la que ocupa un papel relevante el principio de racionalidad, en tanto que criterio excluyente de la arbitrariedad en el ejercicio de la potestad de planeamiento, que enlaza con cuestiones como la motivación de las decisiones urbanísticas o la suspensión de licencias, medida cautelar garante de las previsiones contenidas en los planes urbanísticos. El libro incluye, también, en términos de sostenibilidad, un estudio de la incidencia de los instrumentos de planeamiento −planes, proyectos y programas− en la gestión sostenible del entorno, así como la confluencia del planeamiento y la contratación pública, con una referencia expresa, como no podía ser de otro modo, a los convenios urbanísticos de planeamiento, en el nuevo marco normativo europeo, en especial, la Directiva 2014/24/UE, para poner de manifiesto las peculiaridades existentes en la materia. María Fuensanta Gómez Manresa, Profesora de Derecho Administrativo de la Universidad de Murcia, es especialista en urbanismo y contratación pública, lo que le ha llevado, además, al estudio de materias relacionadas con el medio ambiente o la Administración electrónica.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Unión Europea, a pesar de no ostentar como título propio, ni como política común la ordenación del territorio o el urbanismo ha ido desplegando sus efectos en ámbitos cada vez más cercanos a la regulación de los usos del suelo restando pocas materias en las que su vis atractiva no haya penetrado. Esta obra muestra la necesidad de plantear los modelos urbanísticos europeos desde una perspectiva comunitaria. Abordando los principales elementos y parámetros condicionantes de una uniformidad disfrazada de aparente diversidad y que podemos calificar como de Europeización del territorio. El medio ambiente y el desarrollo sostenible como política común y la influencia del soft law en las legislaciones urbanísticas, la concepción de la gestión integrada del medio ambiente y el control ambiental como con-trol indirecto de los usos y el destino del suelo, la cohesión territorial a través de la ordenación del territorio y las infraestructuras, especialmente en el caso de las redes transeuropeas y la directiva de contratos y servicios que conduce hacia una homogeneización del concepto de derecho a urbanizar a través del ordenamiento comunitario y los principios de libre circulación y libertad de empresa son los elementos que estructuran y condicionan desde la Unión Europea una forma de intervención sobre la ciudad y que son analizados en esta obra. Marta Lora-Tamayo Vallvé es Profesora Titular de derecho administrativo en la UNED. Ha dedicado la mayor parte de su labor investigadora al urbanismo desde una perspectiva histórica y comparada. Su preocupación por la tensión entre la intervención administrativa sobre los usos del suelo y el derecho de propiedad, lo público y lo privado en el hacer ciudad laten en todas sus obras. Es miembro de la International Academic Assotiation of Planning Law and Property Rights (IAPLPR) en la que participa activamente en sus congresos y debates de los que esta obra se ha enriquecido.

Book excerpt: The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of the commons as a free, fair system of provisioning and governance beyond capitalism, socialism, and other -isms. From co-housing and agroecology to fisheries and open-source everything, people around the world are increasingly turning to 'commoning' to emancipate themselves from a predatory market-state system. Free, Fair, and Alive presents a foundational re-thinking of the commons — the self-organized social system that humans have used for millennia to meet their needs. It offers a compelling vision of a future beyond the dead-end binary of capitalism versus socialism that has almost brought the world to its knees. Written by two leading commons activists of our time, this guide is a penetrating cultural critique, table-pounding political treatise, and practical playbook. Highly readable and full of colorful stories, coverage includes: Internal dynamics of commoning How the commons worldview opens up new possibilities for change Role of language in reorienting our perceptions and political strategies Seeing the potential of commoning everywhere. Free, Fair, and Alive provides a fresh, non-academic synthesis of contemporary commons written for a popular, activist-minded audience. It presents a compelling narrative: that we can be free and creative people, govern ourselves through fair and accountable institutions, and experience the aliveness of authentic human presence.

Book excerpt: “The hope for the future depends on teaching current and future students the analytical and critical thinking skills for dealing with the most critical problems. My own hope is for this book to be read by everyone, even those outside the field of environmental education. Read this book, read it again, share it widely, and do something - anything - to help our needy and wounded planet."-Marc Bekoff, author of The Animal Manifesto: Six Reasons For Expanding Our Compassion Footprint "Saylan and Blumstein provide a compelling vision of what can be, and what should be, if we have the courage to open our eyes and the boldness to act.”-Peter Saundry, Ph.D., Executive Director of the National Council for Science and the Environment “A clarion call to incorporate environmental education in all grades K-12, across all academic disciplines, in order to produce future generations of environmental stewards."-Mark Gold, President, Heal The Bay "We need a sea change in the educational system. After all, if we can teach schoolchildren that vandalism is wrong, why can we not teach them that environmental destruction is wrong? This book is a haunting call to action. A beautifully written manifesto that gets it right."-Ron Swaisgood, Director of Applied Animal Ecology, Institute for Conservation Research, San Diego Zoo Global “The greatest threat to the future of all species on the planet is the huge gap between what is understood about global climate change by the scientific community and what is known about climate change by the people who need to know -- the public. The sound prescriptions in this book need to be read now. We are running out of time.”-Dr. James Hansen, world-renowned climatologist and author of Storms of My Grandchildren: The Truth About the Coming Climate Catastrophe and Our Last Chance to Save Humanity “Environmental education is a disaster and educating the public on environmental issues is the greatest challenge facing humanity today. This book will help us understand why we are headed toward the collapse of civilization, and more important, how to fix it. Packed with sound science, useful information, and brilliant ideas, it is a book we must read, and give, to our local school boards and principals nationwide. Our children will thank us."-Paul R. Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb and Humanity on a Tightrope

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of social innovation offers an alternative perspective on development and territorial transformation, one which foregrounds innovation in social relations. This volume presents a broad-ranging and insightful exploration of social innovation and how it can affect life, society and economy, especially within local communities. It addresses key questions about the nature of social innovation as a process and a strategy and explores what opportunities may exist, or may be generated, for social innovation to nourish human development. It puts forward alternative development options which variously highlight solidarity, co-operation, cultural-artistic endeavour and diversity. In doing so, this book offers a provocative response to the predominant neoliberal economic vision of spatial, economic and social change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of us develops and enacts strategies for living our everyday lives. These may confirm the general tendency towards new forms of connected solitude, in which we work, travel and live alone, yet feel sociable mainly by means of technology. Alternatively, they may help to create flexible communities that are open and inclusive, and therefore resilient and socially sustainable. In Politics of the Everyday, Ezio Manzini discusses examples of social innovation that show how, even in these difficult times, a better kind of society is possible. By bringing autonomy and collaboration together, it is possible to develop new forms of design intelligence, for our own good, for the good of the communities we are part of, and for society as a whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do the islands and archipelagos of the New World figure in Latin American cinema? Comprising 15 essays and a critical introduction, The Film Archipelago: Islands in Latin American Cinema addresses this question by examining a series of intersections between insular spaces and filmmaking in Latin America. The volume brings together international scholars and filmmakers to consider a diverse corpus of films about islands, films that take place on islands, films produced in islands, and films that problematise islands. The book explores a diverse range of films that extend from the Chilean documentaries of Patricio Guzmán to work on the Malvinas/Falkland Islands, and films by Argentine directors Gustavo Fontán and Lucrecia Martel. Chapters focus on Rapa Nui (Easter Island), the Mexican Islas Marías, and the Panamanian Caribbean; on ecocritical, environmental and film historical aspects of Brazilian and Argentine river islands; and on Cuban, Guadeloupean, Haitian, and Puerto Rican contexts. The Film Archipelago argues that the islands and archipelagos of Latin American cinema constitute a critically interesting, analytically complex, and historically suggestive angle to explore issues of marginality and peripherality, remoteness and isolation, and fragility and dependency. As a whole, the collection demonstrates to what extent the combined insular and archipelagic lens can re-frame and re-figure both longstanding and recent discussions on the spaces of Latin American cinema.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, neighbourhoods been pivotal sites of social, economic and political exclusion processes, and civil society initiatives, attempting bottom-up strategies of re-development and regeneration. In many cases these efforts resulted in the creation of socially innovative organizations, seeking to satisfy the basic human needs of deprived population groups, to increase their political capabilities and to improve social interaction both internally and between the local communities, the wider urban society and political world. SINGOCOM - Social INnovation GOvernance and COMmunity building – is the acronym of the EU-funded project on which this book is based. Sixteen case studies of socially-innovative initiatives at the neighbourhood level were carried out in nine European cities, of which ten are analysed in depth and presented here. The book compares these efforts and their results, and shows how grass-roots initiatives, alternative local movements and self-organizing urban collectives are reshaping the urban scene in dynamic, creative, innovative and empowering ways. It argues that such grass-roots initiatives are vital for generating a socially cohesive urban condition that exists alongside the official state-organized forms of urban governance. The book is thus a major contribution to socio-political literature, as it seeks to overcome the duality between community-development studies and strategies, and the solidarity-based making of a diverse society based upon the recognising and maintaining of citizenship rights. It will be of particular interest to both students and researchers in the fields of urban studies, social geography and political science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book emphasizes the significance of affects, feelings and emotions in how we think about politics, gender and sexuality in Latin America. Considering the complex and even contradictory social processes that the region is experiencing today, many Latin American authors are turning to affect to find a key to understand our present situation, to revisit our history, and to imagine new possibilities for the future. This tendency has shown such a specificity and sometimes departure from northern productions that it compels us to focus more deeply on its own arguments, methods, and critical contributions. This volume features essays that explore the particularities of Latin American ways of thinking about affect and how they can shed new light into our understanding of, gender, sexuality and politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 20, 1949 US President Harry S. Truman officially opened the era of development. On that day, over one half of the people of the world were defined as "underdeveloped" and they have stayed that way ever since. This book explains the origins of development and underdevelopment and shows how poorly we understand these two terms. It offers a new vision for development, demystifying the statistics that international organizations use to measure development and introducing the alternative concept of buen vivir: the state of living well. The authors argue that it is possible for everyone on the planet to live well, but only if we learn to live as communities rather than as individuals and to nurture our respective commons. Scholars and students of global development studies are well-aware that development is a difficult concept. This thought-provoking book offers them advice for the future of development studies and hope for the future of humankind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of tensions between modern and postmodern sensibilities, what larger directions now emerge in cultural anthropology? In this major work, Bruce Knauft takes stock of important recent initiatives in cultural and critical theory. By combining critical reviews and ethnographic engagements with fresh readings of major figures and approaches, the work develops a larger vantage point for considering the dispersing influence of practice theories, postmodernism, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, modern/post-positive feminism, and multicultural criticisms.
