Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El tema central del texto "Ciudades y Territorio en América del Sur, del siglo XV al XVII" es producto de los temas tratados en el curso "América Antigua. Arquitectura y Planeamiento" que desde hace 15 años lleva a cabo el arquitecto Jorge F. Buján en la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata. En este caso el texto se enriquece con las investigaciones de los autores invitados: José Canziani, Rodolfo Raffino, Reinaldo Moralejo, Guillermina Couso, Devora Manuel, Jorge Buján, Ana Igareta, Luis María Calvo y María Teresa Iglesias. Las palabras clave asociadas al tema convocante fueron centro urbano, territorio, sistema vial, producción y representaciones, a efectos de que las miradas convergieran sobre los centros de América del Sur, en particular sobre sus relaciones en el accidentado territorio y, según los casos, en la apreciación de las tensiones entre el estado de las culturas nativas, el impacto que sobre ellas produjo la invasión española y el complejo proceso posterior. El texto no solo está dirigido a docentes y alumnos afines al tema sino a todo posible lector interesado en información que contribuirá a un mejor conocimiento del pasado y el presente del propio continente.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro, un poco insólito en nuestro medio tan urbano, occidental aunque de ciudades trazadas en base a grillas reticuladas, y en una Facultad en que ha primado el pensamiento y la reflexión basada en cánones externos al continente, trata no sólo sobre las ciudades sino sobre la forma en que se construyó el conocimiento sobre ellas, de las personas y mecanismos intelectuales que lentamente fueron colocando los ladrillos necesarios para edificar esa estructura, a veces endeble por cierto, pero que ya existe; dicho en forma simple: cómo se logró que unas ruinas desconocidas para Occidente fueran entendidas, comprendidas e interpretadas; y de los errores, los caminos recorridos inútilmente y las causas de estos desvíos. ¿En qué medida los estudios recientes sobre los asentamientos y el territorio maya sufren de los mismos problemas que los estudios sobre la estructura interna de todas las ciudades prehispánicas? Este texto intenta revisar el recorrido de estos estudios, sus resultados y mostrar lo que se ha logrado y lo que conlleva como carga historiográfica producto de la misma evolución del conocimiento tanto arqueológico como de historia urbana y de la arquitectura. Muestra cómo algunos conceptos relacionados con las formas del uso social del espacio surgieron y se aceptaron; y cómo, a pesar de la información arqueológica contraria ya existente en ese entonces, se fueron igualmente difundiendo. Fue necesario mucho trabajo y medio siglo para lograr romper con eso y aceptar la compleja urbanización de estas grandes ciudades, para luego comenzar a estudiar su entorno y su territorio. Esta obra trata de revisar estos problemas y entender así el estado actual del tema.

Download or read book Las ciudades de Hispanoam rica como sistema urbano written by Pedro Conrado Sonderéguer Calveyra and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El tema central del trabajo es la perdurabilidad de la tradición urbana desarrollada en América Latina sobre la base del sistema urbano construido en las primeras décadas del siglo XVI por los españoles para organizar el territorio, sistema que comprende desde los comienzos las principales ciudades de América española e integra hoy el conjunto de las capitales de los países hispanoamericanos. Este sistema urbano se consolidó durante la Colonia (siglos XVI al XVIII) y sobrevivió a tres grandes cambios: a) fue renovado a comienzos del siglo XIX, cuando las principales ciudades hispanoamericanas conducen la Revolución de Independencia y las ciudades conservan su primacía y dominio territorial en las nuevas jurisdicciones emanadas de la Independencia; b) se replantea a fines del siglo XIX, en un proceso de la integración con la economía mundial, acompañando la consolidación de los estados nacionales, en un dramático cambio de escala que transforma profundamente los territorios latinoamericanos; c) actualmente, en un proceso iniciado en el último tercio del siglo XX, cuando las ciudades inician un nuevo modo de interacción en el territorio regional y en el escenario global, muchas veces por encima de las jurisdicciones heredadas del estado nacional. El trabajo, enfocado al caso de las dos principales ciudades hispanoamericanas --Buenos Aires y Ciudad de México-- describe el momento en que esa tradición urbana se apaga, hacia la década de 1960, en el mismo período en que América Latina inicia el camino de su definitiva urbanización, las poblaciones devienen mayoritariamente urbanas en todos los países del continente y las grandes ciudades dominan el escenario (especialmente México y Buenos Aires, las dos ciudades de habla española más pobladas, ricas y complejas)...

Download or read book Modernization Urbanization and Development in Latin America 1900s 2000s written by Arturo Almandoz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Arturo Almandoz places the major episodes of Latin America’s twentieth and early twenty-first century urban history within the changing relationship between industrialization and urbanization, modernization and development. This relationship began in the early twentieth century, when industrialization and urbanization became significant in the region, and ends at the beginning of the twenty-first century, when new tensions between liberal globalization and populist nationalism challenge development in the subcontinent, much of which is still poverty stricken. Latin America’s twentieth-century modernization and development are closely related to nineteenth-century ideals of progress and civilization, and for this reason Almandoz opens with a brief review of that legacy for the different countries that are the focus of his book – Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela – but with references to others. He then explores the regional distortions, which resulted from the interaction between industrialization and urbanization, and how the imbalance between urbanization and the productive system helps to explain why ‘take-off’ was not followed by the ‘drive to maturity’ in Latin American countries. He suggests that the close yet troublesome relationship with the United States, the recurrence of dictatorships and autocratic regimes, and Marxist influences in many domains, are all factors that explain Latin America’s stagnation and underdevelopment up to the so-called ‘lost decade’ of 1980s. He shows how Latin America’s fate changed in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century, when neoliberal programmes, political compromise and constitutional reform dismantled the traditional model of the corporate state and centralized planning. He reveals how economic growth and social improvements have been attained by politically left-wing yet economically open-market countries while others have resumed populism and state intervention. All these trends make up the complex scenario for the new century – especially when considered against the background of vibrant metropolises that are the main actors in the book.

Download or read book Transnational Perspectives on the Conquest and Colonization of Latin America written by Jenny Mander and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ranging geographically from Tierra del Fuego to California and the Caribbean, and historically from early European sightings and the utopian projects of would-be colonizers to the present-day cultural politics of migrant communities and international relations, this volume presents a rich variety of case studies and scholarly perspectives on the interplay of diverse cultures in the Americas since the European conquest. Subjects covered include documentary and archaeological evidence of cultural interaction, the collection of native artifacts and the role of museums in the interpretation of indigenous traditions, the cultural impact of Christian missions and the representation of indigenous cultures in writings addressed to European readers, the development of Latin American artistic traditions and the incorporation of motifs from European classical antiquity into modern popular culture, the contribution of Afro-descendants to the cultural mix of Latin America and the erasure of the Hispanic heritage from cultural perceptions of California since the nineteenth century. By offering accessible and well-illustrated accounts of a wide range of particular cases, the volume aims to stimulate thinking about historical and methodological issues, which can be exploited in a teaching context as well as in the furtherance of research projects in a comparative and transnational framework.
