Book excerpt: En réponse aux incitations juridiques et à l'attente sociale, le renforcement de la dimension paysagère dans lagouvernance territoriale est incontestable avec la multiplication de projets, d'atlas, de plans, de chartes de paysage. Aumême titre que les autres outils, les Observatoires Photographiques du Paysage (OPP) se multiplient en Europe etparticulièrement en France depuis une vingtaine d'années. Néanmoins, ils peinent à être légitimés par les élus, experts,concepteurs et gestionnaires du territoire, ce qui est notamment dû au fait que les OPP sont difficilement exploitables,tant pour des difficultés d'accès que des problèmes de méthode.À partir d'un ancrage en géographie sociale, la thèse interroge les OPP à travers trois orientations : (i) leurs potentialitésà enrichir la connaissance sur les dynamiques paysagères et les représentations sociales des acteurs du territoire, (ii)leurs capacités à interagir avec les documents territoriaux, (iii) leurs aptitudes à être des supports de médiation entreles acteurs du territoire lors de projets de territoire.Les travaux de recherche sont menés dans la région Bretagne, où quinze structures locales portent un OPP. Via uncorpus choisi, diverses méthodes sont expérimentées et permettent d'entrecroiser les analyses : analyse descriptive ducontenu visuel OPP, analyse du discours des acteurs du territoire à partir d'enquêtes par entretien, analyse comparativeentre les OPP et les documents territoriaux. Dans une perspective de recherche-action, un travail collaboratif avec lesstructures locales OPP a conduit à la création d'une Plateforme informatique, la POPP-Breizh. Cette dernière apportedes solutions pour rendre accessible et exploitable les OPP.In fine, la présente recherche évalue les capacités des OPP à répondre aux enjeux sociétaux et scientifiques actuelsliés au paysage afin d'élaborer des préconisations pour que les OPP deviennent des archives intégrées à lagouvernance territoriale.
Book Synopsis La terre et l'homme by : Etienne Le Roy
Download or read book La terre et l'homme written by Etienne Le Roy and published by Karthala. This book was released on 2013 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 4e de couv.: Face à la ruée vers les terres (Land grab) et à la pression continue sur les ressources naturelles à l'échelle mondiale, comment réagissent les populations locales, en particulier les plus vulnérables d'entre elles comme les Aborigènes australiens ou les populations autochtones du Canada, du Mexique ou du Pérou ? Un congrès international auquel ont contribué des chercheurs partageant les paradigmes de l'anthropologie juridique a été organisé à l'initiative d'ISAIDAT à Turin (Italie), en avril 2011. Le tour de la planète auquel est convié le lecteur part des lagons polynésiens pour arriver aux Oasis algériennes. Outre une plateforme théorique, l'ouvrage propose en effet huit éclairages de situations en Océanie, dans l'Océan Indien, aux Amériques et en Afrique. Elles illustrent tant la contradiction des enjeux et la brutalité de certains modes d'exploitation de l'environnement que l'inventivité des femmes et des hommes qui relèvent le défi d'en maîtriser les ajustements contemporains. Au terme de cette publication, de nouveaux chantiers s'offrent à la recherche sur le foncier :• redécouvrir l'essence du juridique dans les sociétés précapitalistes,• aborder la sécurisation foncière comme un processus complexe de formalisation des droits sur le sol et en valider les solutions dans des forums locaux,• ne reconnaître la propriété privée que là où elle s'impose comme la règle de jeu du marché. Nous sommes donc appelés à réviser nos paradigmes pour sauver nos biens communs les plus précieux, « la terre et l'homme ».
Book Synopsis The Transition Handbook by : Rob Hopkins
Download or read book The Transition Handbook written by Rob Hopkins and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Move from feeling anxious about the oil crisis to developing a positive visions and taking traction action to create a more self-reliant existence with this ground-breaking book. We live in an oil-dependent world, and have become reliant in a very short space of time, using vast reserves of oil in the process – and without planning for when the supply is not so plentiful. Most of us avoid thinking about what happens when the oil runs out (or becomes prohibitively expensive), but the reality may not be as bad as we think. The Transition Handbook shows how the inevitable and profound changes ahead could have a positive effect. Written by permaculture expert Rob Hopkins, he discusses the possibility of a rebirth of local communities, which will generate their own fuel, food and housing. These will encourage the development of local currencies, to keep money in the local area, and unleash a local 'skilling-up', so that people have more control over their lives. The growth in interest in the Transition model continues to be exponential. There are now more than 35 formal Transition Initiatives in the UK, including towns, cities, islands, villages and peninsulas, with more joining as the idea takes off. With little proactivity at government level, communities are taking matters into their own hands and acting locally. If your community has not yet become a Transition Initiative, this upbeat guide, filled with beautiful black and white photographs, offers you the tools to get started. The Transition Handbook is the perfect manual to guide communities, as they begin this 'energy descent' journey.

Book Synopsis Fonder les sciences du territoire by : Pierre Beckouche
Download or read book Fonder les sciences du territoire written by Pierre Beckouche and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2012 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le colloque "Fonder les sciences du territoire" a constitué le lancement scientifique du GIS-CIST (Collège international des sciences du territoire). Il devait répondre à cette question : nous savons que le territoire est au coeur d'un grand nombre des transformations des sociétés contemporaines, mais pour autant avons-nous raison de vouloir fonder les "sciences du territoire" ? Cela supposait de répondre à d'autres questions préalables : sur la confrontation aux expériences interdisciplinaires étrangères dans le domaine. Si l'on veut constituer un réseau international, encore faut-il s'assurer de l'existence d'initiatives similaires à l'étranger et du degré de compatibilité avec elles ; sur les thématiques des sciences du territoire, le GIS ayant lancé de premiers axes de travail mais devant rester ouvert à d'autres axes possibles ; sur la nature de ces "sciences du territoire" : doivent-elles être conçues comme un champ multidisciplinaire, c'est-à-dire comme un ensemble de disciplines scientifiques que l'on confronterait pour comprendre, de manière minimalement harmonisée, la dimension territoriale de leurs objets propres ? Ou doit-on aller jusqu'à considérer qu'il s'agirait d'une discipline scientifique émergente, dont il faudra alors définir les concepts, les lois et les méthodes d'analyse ? Le spectre des disciplines concernées est large, très au-delà des SHS. Car c'est dans la confrontation des SHS avec les sciences de la vie et de la terre, les sciences de santé et les sciences de l'ingénieur (modélisation, systèmes complexes...) que les enjeux théoriques et méthodologiques sont les plus grands. Par exemple, le manque d'échanges entre les physiciens ou mathématiciens qui conçoivent les modèles du changement climatique, et les SHS dédiées à l'impact territorial de ce changement climatique, se traduit par une insuffisante interaction entre les analyses globales et locales. Enfin, au-delà des disciplines scientifiques, comment les sciences du territoire devraient-elles se situer par rapport aux pratiques du développement territorial ? Ce premier ouvrage de la Collection du CIST, dirigé par Pierre Beckouche, Claude Grasland, France Guérin-Pace, Jean-Yves Moisseron, rend compte des travaux menés au sein du Collège international des sciences du territoire.

Book Synopsis Landscape and Sustainable Development by : Yves Luginbühl
Download or read book Landscape and Sustainable Development written by Yves Luginbühl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously published in French by Éditions Quae, this volume presents findings of a major research programme into landscape and sustainable development. While led by French scholars, the research team and geographical scope of the project was international, collaborative and comparative. Using case studies from across Europe, the interdisciplinary team of contributors discuss the relationship between landscape as defined by the European Landscape Convention and the concept of sustainable development. This English edition has a new introduction written by Yves Luginbühl and Peter Howard. The book is then divided into three sections: Biophysical Realities and Landscape Practice; Landscape Resources-Inheritance and Renewal; Governance and Participation. Some of the topics covered, such as wind-farm landscapes, will be familiar to English language readers, but others, such as footpath economics, non-woodland trees, inter-generational equity, and the insistence on the necessary developments in governance less so.
Book Synopsis The Right to Landscape by : Shelley Egoz
Download or read book The Right to Landscape written by Shelley Egoz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Associating social justice with landscape is not new, yet the twenty-first century's heightened threats to landscape and their impact on both human and, more generally, nature's habitats necessitate novel intellectual tools to address such challenges. This book offers that innovative critical thinking framework. The establishment of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948, in the aftermath of Second World War atrocities, was an aspiration to guarantee both concrete necessities for survival and the spiritual/emotional/psychological needs that are quintessential to the human experience. While landscape is place, nature and culture specific, the idea transcends nation-state boundaries and as such can be understood as a universal theoretical concept similar to the way in which human rights are perceived. The first step towards the intellectual interface between landscape and human rights is a dynamic and layered understanding of landscape. Accordingly, the 'Right to Landscape' is conceived as the place where the expansive definition of landscape, with its tangible and intangible dimensions, overlaps with the rights that support both life and human dignity, as defined by the UDHR. By expanding on the concept of human rights in the context of landscape this book presents a new model for addressing human rights - alternative scenarios for constructing conflict-reduced approaches to landscape-use and human welfare are generated. This book introduces a rich new discourse on landscape and human rights, serving as a platform to inspire a diversity of ideas and conceptual interpretations. The case studies discussed are wide in their geographical distribution and interdisciplinary in the theoretical situation of their authors, breaking fresh ground for an emerging critical dialogue on the convergence of landscape and human rights.

Book Synopsis Identity Process Theory by : Rusi Jaspal
Download or read book Identity Process Theory written by Rusi Jaspal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an ever-changing social world, which constantly demands adjustment to our identities and actions. Advances in science, technology and medicine, political upheaval, and economic development are just some examples of social change that can impact upon how we live our lives, how we view ourselves and each other, and how we communicate. Three decades after its first appearance, identity process theory remains a vibrant and useful integrative framework in which identity, social action and social change can be collectively examined. This book presents some of the key developments in this area. In eighteen chapters by world-renowned social psychologists, the reader is introduced to the major social psychological debates about the construction and protection of identity in face of social change. Contributors address a wide range of contemporary topics - national identity, risk, prejudice, intractable conflict and ageing - which are examined from the perspective of identity process theory.

Book Synopsis Anthropology and Development by : Jean-Pierre Oliver De-Sardan
Download or read book Anthropology and Development written by Jean-Pierre Oliver De-Sardan and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book re-establishes the relevance of mainstream anthropological (and sociological) approaches to development processes and simultaneously recognizes that contemporary development ought to be anthropology‘s principal area of study. Professor de Sardan argues for a socio-anthropology of change and development that is a deeply empirical, multidimensional, diachronic study of social groups and their interactions. The Introduction provides a thought-provoking examination of the principal new approaches that have emerged in the discipline during the 1990s. Part I then makes clear the complexity of social change and development, and the ways in which socio-anthropology can measure up to the challenge of this complexity. Part II looks more closely at some of the leading variables involved in the development process, including relations of production; the logics of social action; the nature of knowledge; forms of mediation; and ‘political‘ strategies.
Book Synopsis The Enigma of the Gift by : Maurice Godelier
Download or read book The Enigma of the Gift written by Maurice Godelier and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1999-02-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we think of giving gifts, we think of exchanging objects that carry with them economic or symbolic value. But is every valuable thing a potentially exchangeable item, whose value can be transferred? In The Enigma of the Gift, the distinguished French anthropologist Maurice Godelier reassesses the significance of gifts in social life by focusing on sacred objects, which are never exchanged despite the value they possess. Beginning with an analysis of the seminal work of Marcel Mauss and Claude Lévi-Strass, and drawing on his own fieldwork in Melanesia, Godelier argues that traditional theories are flawed because they consider only exchangeable gifts. By explaining gift-giving in terms of sacred objects and the authoritative conferral of power associated with them, Godelier challenges both recent and traditional theories of gift-giving, provocatively refreshing a traditional debate. Elegantly translated by Nora Scott, The Enigma of the Gift is at once a major theoretical contribution and an essential guide to the history of the theory of the gift.

Book Synopsis Oases and Globalization by : Emilie Lavie
Download or read book Oases and Globalization written by Emilie Lavie and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-25 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reference work about the study of oases in the context of globalization. It is based on selected papers presented at the international colloquium entitled Oases in the Globalization, Ruptures and Continuities in Paris (December 16-17th, 2013). The main issue was to understand how oases have been excluded from or included into the process of globalization. In this context, the present book proposes firstly a discussion about the definition(s) of oasis and secondly several case studies analysing socio-spatial mutations in the oasis structure. The third part deals with the compelling globalization at different spatial scales, using two entries: the water management and local impacts of external control.
Book Synopsis The Community Forests of Mexico by : David Barton Bray
Download or read book The Community Forests of Mexico written by David Barton Bray and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-03-16 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexico leads the world in community management of forests for the commercial production of timber. Yet this success story is not widely known, even in Mexico, despite the fact that communities around the globe are increasingly involved in managing their own forest resources. To assess the achievements and shortcomings of Mexico's community forest management programs and to offer approaches that can be applied in other parts of the world, this book collects fourteen articles that explore community forest management from historical, policy, economic, ecological, sociological, and political perspectives. The contributors to this book are established researchers in the field, as well as many of the important actors in Mexico's nongovernmental organization sector. Some articles are case studies of community forest management programs in the states of Michoacán, Oaxaca, Durango, Quintana Roo, and Guerrero. Others provide broader historical and contemporary overviews of various aspects of community forest management. As a whole, this volume clearly establishes that the community forest sector in Mexico is large, diverse, and has achieved unusual maturity in doing what communities in the rest of the world are only beginning to explore: how to balance community income with forest conservation. In this process, Mexican communities are also managing for sustainable landscapes and livelihoods.
