Book El paisaje  De la percepci  n a la gesti  n

Download or read book El paisaje De la percepci n a la gesti n written by Linarejos Cruz Pérez and published by Ediciones Liteam SL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este texto es el resultado de la necesidad de avanzar hacia un entendimiento transdisciplinar y unitario del valor del paisaje. Sus autores asumen el desafío de abordarlo en todas sus dimensiones: desde la consideración de sus formas, hasta su percepción y aprecio, deteniéndose expresamente en lo que supone como valor colectivo. La revisión de la mirada actual del consumo y el negocio del paisaje conducen a considerar las exigencias éticas y a presentar las tres dimensiones del paisaje: tiempo, espacio y estética.\r\nFinalmente, tras analizar el carácter del paisaje y la lectura de sus significados, nos presentan un marco de propuesta para una gestión positiva del paisaje. La línea de discurso positivo y constructivo que desarrolla esta obra se acompaña de ejemplos de paisajes reales, que ilustran los pasos sobre los que se construye este entendimiento del valor del paisaje.

Book Health  Wellbeing and Sustainability in the Mediterranean City

Download or read book Health Wellbeing and Sustainability in the Mediterranean City written by Antonio Jiménez-Delgado and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a model for the creation of sustainable and healthy cities in the Mediterranean region. It uses the coastal city of L’Alfàs del Pi in Spain as an example for designing renewable and innovative urban models that offer high standards of living, wellbeing and eco-friendly advantages. Quantitative and qualitative analyses are presented by scholars in a wide variety of fields to provide a thorough understanding of the social, cultural, economic, political, physical, environmental and public health influences, through the case study of L'Alfàs del Pi. L’Alfàs del Pi has a geographically unique population made of a mixture of local inhabitants and Northern European residents attracted by the weather conditions and the sea. The chapters in this book explore a series of innovative proposals for addressing concerns in the area, including historic preservation, sustainable transportation, promoting health and physical activity and water conservation. The methodology establishes a strategic approach that serves as a useful reference point for coastal cities, particularly in Mediterranean countries, in the creation of sustainable and healthy cities. This book will appeal to researchers across the disciplines of tourism, planning, health geography, architecture and urban studies.

Book Renewable Energies and European Landscapes

Download or read book Renewable Energies and European Landscapes written by Marina Frolova and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides timely, multidisciplinary cross-national comparison of the institutional and social processes through which renewable energy landscapes have emerged in Southern Europe. On the basis of case studies in these countries, it analyzes the way in which and the extent to which the development of renewable energies has affected landscape forms and whether or not it has contributed to a reformulation of landscape practices and values in these countries. Landscape is conceived broadly, as a material, social, political and historical process embedded into the local realm, going beyond aesthetic. The case studies analyze renewable energy landscapes in Southern Europe on different political and geographical scales and compare different types of renewable energy such as wind, hydro, solar and biomass power. The contributors are leading experts from Spain, France, Italy and Portugal. The book is intended for researchers, graduate students and professionals interested in geography, landscape and planning.

Book Spanish Tourism Geographies

Download or read book Spanish Tourism Geographies written by Asunción Blanco-Romero and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-30 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the progress in Spanish tourism geography, particularly after the overlay of financial, pandemic and climate crisis, by the scrutiny of the different geographical areas and variables of analysis. It shows the diversity of geographical environments and their varied relationship with tourism, from the emptied inland regions to urban heritage in historic centres to coastal resorts. The book also introduces the analysis of the most important variables when studying the implications of Spanish tourist specialization. How are the beaches with intensive tourist use managed? What socio-spatial processes do leisure-rooted migrations involve? What are the labour conditions in the Spanish tourism industry? How does saving water boost tourism growth? The book offers answers through a methodological specificity of Spanish geography, which is highly oriented towards the analysis of public policies and even the proposal of new planning and methodology formulas that go beyond diagnostic studies. The domestic perspective, or that of insiders, of these scientists residing in Spain bestows them with special codes for conducting interpretations and analyses based on their everyday proximity to a territory characterised by its intense touristification. The tourism and real estate specialisation that Spanish society, together with its territory and institutions, have forged since the beginning of “developmentalism” permeates this scientific analysis. By providing a strong conceptual and empirical portrait, this book is a great resource for students and scholars in geography of tourism, as well as for social scientists and policy makers.

  • Pages : 128 pages

Download or read book TRAC 2014 written by Tom Brindle and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-04-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a selection of papers presented at TRAC 2014, as well as some invited contributions. In keeping with the aims of TRAC, several papers make make innovative use of interdisciplinary theory: in humanistic geography, philosophy and archaeology; social psychology; and the cognitive science of religion in the study of Roman monuments, military social history and religion. Other papers share a common theme: the critical interpretation of archaeological evidence. A more careful consideration of non-grave good pottery sherds from graves suggests that these often disregarded items potentially shed light on funerary rites which are usually considered to be invisible; the potential importance of plant remains, particularly of exotic and rare species, in ritual deposits is examined and a new perspective on the negative aspects of Roman conquest of Northern Gaul presented. New approaches towards our understanding of space and landscape in the Roman world comprise an examination of the suburbs of ancient Rome and preliminary results of an ongoing project exploring the relationship between wetland landscapes and domestic settlements, presenting a case study from Spain.
