Book El Paisaje en la Ordenaci  n Del Territorio

Download or read book El Paisaje en la Ordenaci n Del Territorio written by Alvaro Soba Giordano and published by Eae Editorial Academia Espanola. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El paisaje es considerado un factor relevante para las politicas de ordenacion del territorio. Los estudios de paisaje juegan un rol integrador entre las disciplinas implicadas, al establecer un lenguaje comun. La incorporacion de la componente ecologica es uno de sus aportes significativos. Asimismo, el paisaje puede ser entendido como un fenomeno natural (objeto), a partir del conjunto de elementos que lo constituyen, independiente del observador, y como un fenomeno cultural (sujeto), considerando las valoraciones que las personas hacen de el. En este marco, el trabajo se propone investigar el potencial del concepto de paisaje, para colaborar en el desarrollo de directrices, planes y proyectos territoriales. Se estudian diferentes aportes conceptuales y metodologicos y se ponen en practica a partir del analisis paisajistico de tres ambitos del Uruguay. Los referentes provienen de la Ecologia del Paisaje, la Geografia, la Arquitectura del Paisaje y el Ordenamiento Territorial. Para la evaluacion de los paisajes se utiliza la guia Landscape Character Assessment y para el analisis de la estructura y funcionamiento del paisaje se utilizan las metodologias de la Ecologia del Paisaje."

Book Territorial Heritage and Development

Download or read book Territorial Heritage and Development written by José Maria Feria and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new approach to heritage, linking it to territory and sustainable development. This new approach entails a broader, integrated view of heritage values on the one hand, and on the other a shift in emphasis from their protection to their valorisation. In short, it provides a view of the joint workings of natural and cultural resources, and, as a consequence, moving away from a protection point of view in favour of a perspective on their suitable sustainable valorisation. In the viewpoint taken here, sustainability is understood as the balance and long-term preservation and enhancement of such natural and cultural resources and processes in a given territory. Territorial Heritage and Development includes contributions from different disciplines (geography, architecture, planning, sociology, environmental studies and archaeology) and case studies drawn from three continents, broaching both analytical and conceptual developments, and a range of initiatives for engaging in territorial heritage as an instrument of sustainable development. The book takes a pioneering and relevant approach to the breadth and complexity of the issue which can be valuable to academics and policy-makers in Geography, Architecture, Planning and Sociology.

Book La construcci  n social del paisaje

Book excerpt: Los ensayos, realizados por especialistas en arquitectura, geografía, historia del arte, sociología o urbanismo, procedentes de diversos países, como Brasil, Canadá, España, Estados Unidos o México, analizan el paisaje como producto social, en tanto que resultado de una transformación colectiva de la naturaleza, que refleja una determinada forma de organizar y experimentar el territorio y se construyen socialmente en el marco de unas complejas y cambiantes relaciones de género, de clase, de etnia y de poder. De ahí que las miradas sobre el paisaje sean tan diversas: sólo vemos los paisajes que deseamos ver, los que no cuestionan nuestra idea de paisaje construida socialmente como consecuencia de una determinada forma de aprehensión y apropiación del espacio geográfico.

Book The Archaeology of Roman Portugal in its Western Mediterranean Context

Download or read book The Archaeology of Roman Portugal in its Western Mediterranean Context written by Tesse D. Stek and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Archaeology of Roman Portugal aims to contribute to the wider debate on Roman imperialism and expansionism, by bringing to the fore a much-underrepresented area of the Roman empire, at least in English-language scholarship: its westernmost edge in modern day Portugal. Highlighting the perspective from Roman Portugal will contribute to our understanding of the Roman empire, because it presents both an extraordinary landscape in the sense of economic opportunities (ocean resources, marble and metal mining) and settlement history. The volume aims to present new data and insights from both archaeology and ancient history, and to discuss their significance for our understanding of Roman expansion and imperialism. A key goal of the volume is to discuss how the Portuguese panorama compares to other areas of the Iberian peninsula. An explicit goal of the volume is to better integrate Portuguese scholarship in the academic debate on the Mediterranean Roman world, and to contextualize it firmly in the wider Iberian and Western Mediterranean context. Therefore, chapters are produced by internationally diverse scholars in archaeology and ancient history from Portugal, Spain, Germany, the UK, the US, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Italy. With a view to asses the potential of integrating best practices in archaeological approaches and methodology, different national and disciplinary research traditions and historical frameworks will be explicitly discussed.

Book The Archaeology of Roman Macedonia

Download or read book The Archaeology of Roman Macedonia written by Vassilis Evangelidis and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macedonia is a region that provides its own intriguing questions due to its position on the fringe of the classical Greek world. It is also an area which is of special interest to students of history and archaeology of Roman period Greece since it was the first to be incorporated in the Roman state. Macedonia shared a similar path of development with Achaea during the imperial period. As provinces far from productive zones and frontiers, both played a minor role in the imperial administrative structure. Beneath this similarity, however, lie many differences: in Macedonia's proximity to the Balkans, its early contact with Rome, its relatively low level of urbanization, its multicultural context and its sizeable economy, which played their own role in the formation of the urban and rural environments. With a focus on elements of the built environment and human habitat, this book examines old and new archaeological evidence to present a concise overview of the archaeology of the area and develop a better perception of the region in terms of archaeology of the built environment, architecture and architectural influences, urbanization and use of land and resources from the 2nd century BCE to the early 4th century CE. Driven by a set of key questions that are addressed through the archaeological evidence, the book explores key issues in understanding the archaeology of the area, like the role of architectural tradition and innovation, the interdependency between practical bases of architecture and socio-cultural aspects, the exploitation of local resources, and the role of external influences. Special importance is given to the interaction of Greek, Roman and local cultures and the ways that the formation of the built environment eventually led to the assimilation of ideas from East and West in terms of workmanship, use of materials, design and function.

Book The Archaeology of Peasantry in Roman Spain

Download or read book The Archaeology of Peasantry in Roman Spain written by Jesús Bermejo Tirado and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-01-19 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to present an updated portrait of the Roman countryside in Roman Spain by the comparison of different theoretical orientations and methodological strategies including the discussion of textual and iconographic sources and the analysis of the faunal remains. The archaeology of rural areas of the Roman world has traditionally been focused on the study of villae, both as an architectural model of Roman otium and as the central core of an economic system based on the extensive agricultural exploitation of latifundia. The assimilation of most rural settlements in provincial areas of the Roman Empire with the villa model implies the acceptance of specific ideas, such as the generalization of the slave mode of production, the rupture of the productive capacity of Late Iron Age communities, or the reduction in importance of free peasant labor in the Roman economy of most rural areas. However, in recent decades, as a consequence of the generalized extension of preventive or emergency archaeology and survey projects in most areas of the ancient territories of the Roman Empire, this traditional conception of the Roman countryside articulated around monumental villae is undergoing a thorough revision. New research projects are changing our current perception of the countryside of most parts of the Roman provincial world by assessing the importance of different types of rural settlements. In the last years, we have witnessed the publication of archaeological reports on the excavation of thousands of small rural sites, farms, farmsteads, enclosures, rural agglomerations of diverse nature, etc. One of the main consequences of all this research activity is a vigorous discussion of the paradigm of the slave mode of production as the basis of Roman rural economies in many provincial areas. A similar change in the paradigm is taking place, with some delay, in the archaeology of Roman Spain. After decades of preventive/emergency interventions there is a considerable quantity of unpublished data on this kind of rural settlements. However, unlike the cases of Roman Britain or Gallia Comata, no synthesis or national projects are undertaking the task of systematizing all these data. With the intention of addressing this current situation the present volume discusses the results and methodological strategies of different projects studying peasant settlements in several regions of Roman Spain.

Book Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia

Download or read book Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 1121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia, twenty-three international authors examine Galicia’s changing place in Iberia, Europe, and the Mediterranean and Atlantic worlds from late antiquity through the thirteenth century. With articles on art and architecture; religion and the church; law and society; politics and historiography; language and literature; and learning and textual culture, the authors introduce medieval Galicia and current research on the region to medievalists, Hispanists, and students of regional culture and society. The cult of St. James, Santiago Cathedral, and the pilgrimage to Compostela are highlighted and contextualized to show how Galicia’s remoteness became the basis for a paradoxical centrality in medieval art, culture, and religion. Contributors are Jeffrey A. Bowman, Manuel Castiñeiras, James D'Emilio, Thomas Deswarte, Pablo C. Díaz, Emma Falque, Amélia P. Hutchinson, Amancio Isla, Henrik Karge, Melissa R. Katz, Michael Kulikowski, Fernando López Sánchez, Luis R. Menéndez Bueyes, William D.

Book Sectoral Plans and Pilot Projects for Sustainable Development

Download or read book Sectoral Plans and Pilot Projects for Sustainable Development written by Juanjo Galan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is volume 2 of a two-volume work. It discusses a set of ten sectoral plans about natural environment, agriculture and husbandry, urban environment and social welfare, infrastructures and mobility, cultural heritage, tourism and public use, landscape, sustainability, socio-demography, economic development and governance. The sectoral plans are accompanied by eighteen pilot projects that develop in detail their most sensitive or relevant parts. The book is intended for planners and researchers from various disciplines, including urban planning, forestry, agriculture, cultural and touristic management, and sustainability studies. The book presents a unique example of integral planning at different scales and across different types of landscapes found on the outskirts of metropolitan areas. It features a sustainability orientated integrated plan to maximise the performance of the south-central area of the Calderona Mountain Range, Spain (Sierra Calderona). It is informed and driven by social, cultural, perceptual, sustainability and economic factors supported by a participative process, acknowledging the frequent conflict between the natural and cultural values found there and the strong pressure for transformation and public use. Incorporating new methodologies and graphical systems for regional and local planning, it constitutes an example of balanced and multidisciplinary planning, based on principles of sustainability, system thinking, new governance and local adaptation.

Book Artistic Approaches to Cultural Mapping

Download or read book Artistic Approaches to Cultural Mapping written by Nancy Duxbury and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making space for imagination can shift research and community planning from a reflective stance to a "future forming" orientation and practice. Cultural mapping is an emerging discourse of collaborative, community-based inquiry and advocacy. This book looks at artistic approaches to cultural mapping, focusing on imaginative cartography. It emphasizes the importance of creative process that engages with the "felt sense" of community experiences, an element often missing from conventional mapping practices. International artistic contributions in this book reveal the creative research practices and languages of artists, a prerequisite to understanding the multi-modal interface of cultural mapping. The book examines how contemporary artistic approaches can challenge conventional asset mapping by animating and honouring the local, giving voice and definition to the vernacular, or recognizing the notion of place as inhabited by story and history. It explores the processes of seeing and listening and the importance of the aesthetic as a key component of community self-expression and self-representation. Innovative contributions in this book champion inclusion and experimentation, expose unacknowledged power relations, and catalyze identity formation, through multiple modes of artistic representation and performance. It will be a valuable resource for individuals involved with creative research methods, performance, and cultural mapping as well as social and urban planning.
