Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tropical forest conservation is attracting widespread public interest and helping to shape the ways in which environmental scientists and other groups approach global environmental issues. Schelhas and Pfeffer show that globally-driven forest conservation efforts have had different results in different places, ranging from violent protest to the discovery of common ground among conservation programs and the various interests of local peoples. The authors examine the connections between local values, material needs, and environmental management regimes. Saving Forests, Protecting People? explores that difficult terrain where culture, the environment, and social policies meet.

Download or read book Mapping a New Museum written by Laura Osorio Sunnucks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mapping a New Museum seeks to rethink the museum’s role in today’s politically conscious world. Presenting a selection of innovative projects that have taken place in Latin America over the last year, the book begins to map out possibilities for the future of the global museum. The projects featured within the pages of this book were all supported by The Santo Domingo Centre of Excellence for Latin American Research (SDCELAR) at the British Museum (BM), with the aim of making the BM’s Latin American collections meaningful to communities in the region and others worldwide. These projects illustrate how communities manage cultural heritage and, taken together, they suggest that there is also no all-encompassing counter-narrative that can be used to "decolonise" museums. Reflecting on, and experimenting with, the ways that research happens within museum collections, the interdisciplinary collaborations described within these pages have used collections to tell stories that destabilise societal assumptions, whilst also proactively seeking out that which has historically been overlooked. The result is, the book argues, a research environment that challenges intellectual orthodoxy and values critical and alternative forms of knowledge. Mapping a New Museum contains English and Spanish versions of every chapter, which enables the book to put critical stress on the self-referentiality of Anglophone literature in the field of museum anthropology. The book will be essential reading for students, scholars and museum practitioners working around the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yunuen es un pequeño que es adoptado por Uyama y Pedro quienes se convierten en sus tutores responsables esto debido a un lejano pariente que fallece en el pueblo vecino a ellos. Uyama en el trayecto de recoger al niño debe regresar por la selva y montes que separan a los dos pequeños pueblos, pero en la trayectoria de regreso, conoce a un duende maldito cuya responsabilidad es custodiar la entrada a las puertas del inframundo y a un joven de raíces mayas con dones sobrenaturales, quienes tienen un pequeño enfrentamiento del cual Uyama y el pequeño salen ilesos gracias a que llegan Pedro y algunos amigos, pero en ese pequeño lapso el joven maya le solicita que cuando haya pasado un determinado tiempo Uyama deberá entregarle al pequeño. Lo llaman Yunuen y vive un tiempo con ellos aprendiendo aceleradamente, pero al ver que ya no le podían enseñar mas, sin más Uyama muy a su pesar va a donde se encuentra el joven maya y le entrega a Yunuen; en donde el niño sin negarse se va con el y se maravilla del bosque mágico en el que ahora se encuentra y conforme va creciendo y aprendiendo en un mundo mágico de duendes, hadas y seres mágicos que se convierten en sus amigos y donde el joven maya se convierte en su maestro y mentor quien ayudados por otros maestros le enseñan a defenderse, desarrollar y controlar sus dones sobrenaturales. Más adelante en un descuido el Maestro mentor es atacado por el ente maldito, quién a su vez a estado asediando a los pueblerinos y acechando al pueblo con la intención ya marcada de apoderarse de ese prospero y pequeño lugar a lo que Yunuen tiene dos trabajos uno salvar al pueblo y el segundo es que sin saber que esta situación será el medio para salvar a su maestro mentor de sus maléficas garras, pero para ello él se tendrá que enfrentar al ente maldito y a sus soldados que andan con él.

Download or read book Feeling the Gaze written by Gail Bulman and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feeling the Gaze explores the visual elements in eight contemporary Argentine and Chilean theater performances. Gail A. Bulman shows how staged images can awaken spectators' emotions to activate their intellect, provoking nuanced and deep contemplation of social, historical, and political themes. Ranging from simple props, costumes, body movements and spatial constructions to integrated media and digital images, the aesthetic components in these pieces engage to forge multifaceted storytelling, stimulate the public's relation to memory, and create affective bonds that help build individual and collective social consciousness. Recent innovations in Southern Cone theatre aesthetics have been shifting traditional performance/spectator relationships and animating ideological discussions. The various works presented here give readers a holistic understanding of the emerging prominence of visuality and affect as a vehicle for political advocacy in Latin American theatre and performance. The book asks us to consider the formation of new spectator-performance bonds as authors, directors, and theatre groups increasingly turn toward alternative settings for their work. Lingering visual memories of the performances, together with the feelings that the performative experience stirs up, provide spectators with an enduring focal point through which to reflect on and judge what is "beyond" the performed scenes. Staged live in the Southern Cone and internationally since 2014, these plays demonstrate the transgressive power of the visual to make spectators see, feel, and potentially act against injustices and violence. This study offers comprehensive critical discussions of Teatro Banda's O'Higgins: un hombre en pedazos; Teatro Nino Proletario's Fulgor; Mario, Luiggi y sus fantasmas's Manual de carrona; Agustin Leon Pruzzo's En la sombra de la cupula; Teatro la Maria's Los millonarios; Claudio Tolcachir's Proximo; Sergio Blanco's Tebas Land; and Lola Arias's Doble de Riesgo.

Book excerpt: "Muy a menudo creemos que tanto nuestro mundo como el universo son lugares caóticos, pero lo que se necesita mejorar no es el Universo como tal, sino su modo de mirarlo" La insaciable búsqueda de respuestas y el eterno deseo por obtener el conocimiento acerca del funcionamiento de las cosas, saber de dónde venimos, adónde nos dirigimos y por qué hacemos lo que hacemos, en un anhelo por alejarse del caótico espectáculo mundano de lo monótono y lo conocido en busca de nuevas experiencias en todas y cada una de las ciudades de Bolivia; Marú termina por encontrar algo mucho más valioso e inesperado que un simple viaje turístico, termina por encontrar el mejor de los regalos, el regalo de saber quienes somos y de qué estamos hechos en realidad. Cayendo en cuenta de que sumidos en nuestros propios problemas, hemos perdido tanto, pero tanto tiempo preocupándonos por sobrevivir, que nos hemos olvidado totalmente de lo que significa vivir.
