Saber ambiental
Author: Enrique Leff
Publisher: Siglo XXI
ISBN: 9789682324024
Category : Nature
Languages : es
Pages : 420
Book Description
La empresa tradicional ha privilegiado a los propietarios en su gestión, dejando a un lado los demás participantes e interesados en sus acciones, en el marco de la racionalidad económica que sólo promueve el crecimiento y la rentabilidad, atentando contra el desarrollo sustentable que requiere la continuidad de la vida en la tierra. Un cambio de actitud personal y empresarial que subsane los problemas sociales y ambientales, implica la instauración de una ética para la sustentabilidad, que sea parte de una racionalidad ambiental opuesta a los modelos heredados de la modernidad y considerará los elementos de la teoría de la complejidad para la construcción de una sociedad más justa que satisfaga los anhelos de felicidad de la humanidad. Este ensayo intenta conexiones entre conceptos éticos y empresariales con la pretensión de dar aportes para la construcción de una racionalidad ambiental, paradigma que nos dará los elementos teóricos para arribar a una sociedad mejor que aquella legada por la historia.

Indicators of Quality of Life in Latin America
Author: Graciela Tonon
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319288423
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
This volume sheds new light on the use of quantitative, qualitative and synthetic indicators for the measurement of quality of life in different countries of Latin America. Organized in three parts, the book presents the methodology for the construction of new indicators, discusses quality of urban life from a geographical perspective, and examines quality of life of different populations. The book focuses on the social, economic, political, geographical and demographic dimensions. It covers a wide range of topics, including the ways to measure social, political and spatial inequalities, the changes in urban quality of life, the construction of a synthetic indicator for the assessment of habitability, the measuring of spatial segregation in midsize and smaller cities by using thematic cartography and synthesis maps, and the concept of habitability. It includes research conducted on the quality of life of different population groups: working boys and girls, high-school students, and older people.

The Ecological Native
Author: Astrid Ulloa
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135475849
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
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.

Sustainable Development Research and Practice in Mexico and Selected Latin American Countries
Author: Walter Leal Filho
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319705601
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
This book provides an essential overview of sustainable development research in Mexico. It discusses the empirical research methods and findings, as well as practical initiatives and projects being pursued in Mexico and other countries in the region. Although a number of Mexican universities are now conducting high-quality research on matters related to sustainable development, there are few publications that offer a multidisciplinary overview of research efforts for a broader audience. This book addresses that gap in the literature, providing researchers at Mexican universities – including those from other countries working in Mexico – with an opportunity to present their work, i.e. curriculum innovations, empirical work, activities, case studies, and practical projects. As such, it fosters the exchange of information, ideas and experiences, successful initiatives and best practices.

A Companion to Spanish Environmental Cultural Studies
Author: Luis I. Prádanos
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 1855663694
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
An exploration of how writers, artists, and filmmakers expose the costs and contest the assumptions of the Capitalocene era that guides readers through the rapidly developing field of Spanish environmental cultural studies. From the scars left by Franco's dams and mines to the toxic waste dumped in Equatorial Guinea, from the cruelty of the modern pork industry to the ravages of mass tourism in the Balearic Islands, this book delves into the power relations, material practices and social imaginaries underpinning the global economic system to uncover its unaffordable human and non-human costs. Guiding the reader through the rapidly emerging field of Spanish environmental cultural studies, with chapters on such topics as extractivism, animal studies, food studies, ecofeminism, decoloniality, critical race studies, tourism, and waste studies, an international team of US and European scholars show how Spanish writers, artists, and filmmakers have illuminated and contested the growth-oriented and neo-colonialist assumptions of the current Capitalocene era. Focussed on Spain, the volume also provides models for exploring the socioecological implications of cultural manifestations in other parts of the world.
