Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El marketing está presente en la cotidianeidad del ser humano, inmerso en la vida habitual del individuo al navegar en redes sociales, en las calles, mientras se traslada a su centro de trabajo, en los alimentos que consume y en los lugares que visita. En este sentido, las organizaciones advierten los cambios que presenta el entorno para dar una respuesta mediante la generación de satisfactores acordes a las necesidades y deseos que demandan los mercados de consumo. De esta forma las prácticas contemporáneas de marketing, los mercados de consumo y las propuestas de valor contribuyen al desarrollo de la economía de las empresas, por esto se vuelve relevante analizarlas desde distintas perspectivas. Las prácticas del marketing expuestas en esta obra abordan temáticas diversas que van desde el análisis del marketing de nostalgia, en postres tradicionales en el ámbito local, hasta la identificación de factores en el comercio transfronterizo de alimentos de la región, pasando por estudios de localización de restaurantes, la caracterización de influencers gastronómicos en Sonora y el uso del merchandising en productos con sellos de advertencia. En la presente publicación se abordan diferentes escenarios del consumidor desde la óptica del marketing, en los cuales se observan diversas estrategias que en el transcurrir del tiempo han evolucionado y se han fusionado con enfoques éticos y de sustentabilidad.

Download or read book Mapping Legalities written by Thomas Coggin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-19 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book maps the interactions between informal workers and the law within the urban and spatial environment. It focuses on access to physical space, revealing the punitive ways in which globally law regulates space and informal work which relies on space. Across various cities worldwide, the chapters in this book uncover how informal workers remain at the policy and legal margins of urban society and reveal their ongoing endeavour for social and legal protection within local jurisdictional contexts. It spans multiple themes, ranging from street vending to informal work in the gig economy. They shed light on the collective influence of the law and the pursuit of a modern city in contributing to the marginalisation of informal workers. Despite this, the chapters illuminate the strategies employed by informal workers to leverage the law in acknowledging their contributions and asserting their presence in the city. The book is targeted towards an academic audience and practitioners specialising in law, urban studies, and the informal economy. The reader will gain an in-depth and cross-jurisdictional understanding of the indispensable role played by informal workers in providing services to a broader urban population, ranging from street vendors to sanitation workers and sex workers.

Download or read book Gender and Climate Change An Introduction written by Irene Dankelman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although climate change affects everybody it is not gender neutral. It has significant social impacts and magnifies existing inequalities such as the disparity between women and men in their vulnerability and ability to cope with this global phenomenon. This new textbook, edited by one of the authors of the seminal Women and the Environment in the Third World: Alliance for the Future (1988) which first exposed the links between environmental degradation and unequal impacts on women, provides a comprehensive introduction to gender aspects of climate change. Over 35 authors have contributed to the book. It starts with a short history of the thinking and practice around gender and sustainable development over the past decades. Next it provides a theoretical framework for analyzing climate change manifestations and policies from the perspective of gender and human security. Drawing on new research, the actual and potential effects of climate change on gender equality and women's vulnerabilities are examined, both in rural and urban contexts. This is illustrated with a rich range of case studies from all over the world and valuable lessons are drawn from these real experiences. Too often women are primarily seen as victims of climate change, and their positive roles as agents of change and contributors to livelihood strategies are neglected. The book disputes this characterization and provides many examples of how women around the world organize and build resilience and adapt to climate change and the role they are playing in climate change mitigation. The final section looks at how far gender mainstreaming in climate mitigation and adaptation has advanced, the policy frameworks in place and how we can move from policy to effective action. Accompanied by a wide range of references and key resources, this book provides students and professionals with an essential, comprehensive introduction to the gender aspects of climate change.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
