Book Desarrollo sostenible en la frontera norte de M  xico

Download or read book Desarrollo sostenible en la frontera norte de M xico written by César M. Fuentes and published by El Colegio de la Frontera Norte. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desarrollo sostenible en la frontera norte de México: Reflexiones para una agenda de acción expone un conjunto de problemáticas referidas al desarrollo sostenible aplicado a ciudades y territorios localizados en la frontera norte de México, y en algunos casos a pares de ciudades transfronterizas. En este libro se presentan una serie de trabajos inscritos en el componente urbano y ambiental, que constituyen un esfuerzo por superar la deuda que el enfoque del desarrollo aún tiene en términos de resultados concretos para las condiciones de vida de las personas más allá de temáticas como el aumento de emisiones de CO2, el incremento del uso del vehículo propio y el congestionamiento vehicular. En ese sentido, la línea argumental de este trabajo es entender el desarrollo sostenible como un proceso reflexivo y crítico orientado a la mejora continua de las condiciones sociales, culturales, económicas, ambientales e institucionales de un país y sus territorios, mediante la consideración de los contextos particulares en que tiene lugar la sostenibilidad del desarrollo. Las contribuciones que aquí se presentan buscan resaltar diversos temas pertinentes para las áreas urbanas de la frontera norte y la región transfronteriza, unos más visibles que otros, pero que tocan fibras sensibles de la sostenibilidad en la vida de las poblaciones que habitan la frontera norte de México.

Book Both Sides of the Border

Download or read book Both Sides of the Border written by Linda Fernandez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-30 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mexican -- United States border represents much more than the meeting place of two nations. Our border communities are often a line of first defense -- absorbing the complex economic, environmental and social impacts of globalization that ripple through the region. In many ways, our success or failure in finding solutions for the environmental, social and economic issues that plague the region may well define our ability to meet similar challenges thousands of miles from the border zone. Border residents face the environmental security concerns posed by water scarcity and transboundary air pollution; the planning and infrastructure needs of an exploding population; the debilitating effects of inadequate sanitary and health facilities; and the crippling cycle of widespread poverty. Yet, with its manifold problems, the border area remains an area of great dynamism and hope -- a multicultural laboratory of experimentation and grass-roots problem-solving. Indeed, as North America moves towards a more integrated economy, citizen action at the local level is pushing governments to adapt to the driving forces in the border area by creating new institutional arrangements and improving old ones. If there is one defining feature of this ground-up push for more responsive transboundary policies and institutions, it is a departure from the closed, formalistic models of the past to a more open, transparent and participatory model of international interaction.
