Book Las estrategias complementarias de conservaci  n frente a las   reas protegidas

Download or read book Las estrategias complementarias de conservaci n frente a las reas protegidas written by Juan David Gómez Laserna and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La investigación busca indagar de qué manera ha evolucionado la política de conservación de la biodiversidad en Colombia, basada principalmente en Áreas Protegidas, como consecuencia del desarrollo de Estrategias Complementarias de Conservación. Para dar respuesta a esto, primero, se realiza una exposición del desarrollo histórico de la relación humano-naturaleza en las políticas de conservación de la biodiversidad en áreas protegidas y de cómo el derecho de participación y el concepto de ECC ha cobrado mayor protagonismo. A continuación, se presenta la manera en que este desarrollo se ha reflejado en acuerdos internacionales y en la legislación nacional. Después, se estudia como la jurisprudencia ha enfatizado en la relevancia del derecho a la participación en asuntos ambientales y las posibles consecuencias jurídicas de que un área sea considerada una ECC. Adicionalmente, a partir de una revisión de varios casos de ECC en Colombia se desarrolla una clasificación con base en diferentes tipos de gobernanza, y se describen y analizan algunos ejemplos significativos. Por último, se exponen los resultados de entrevistas realizadas a expertos en materia de conservación de la biodiversidad y participación, a los que se les preguntó, entre otras cosas, sobre la conveniencia de crear una regulación para las ECC. Se concluye señalando que, a pesar de las implicaciones jurídicas de crear una regulación para las ECC en Colombia sean menores, esta puede fortalecer el reconocimiento político y la posibilidad de que sean respaldadas desde la institucionalidad.

  • ISBN : 3319063588
  • Pages : 368 pages

Download or read book The Social Metabolism written by Manuel González de Molina and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over this last decade, the concept of Social Metabolism has gained prestige as a theoretical instrument for the required analysis, to such an extent that there are now dozens of researchers, hundreds of articles and several books that have adopted and use this concept. However, there is a great deal of variety in terms of definitions and interpretations, as well as different methodologies around this concept, which prevents the consolidation of a unified field of new knowledge. The fundamental aim of the book is to conduct a review of the past and present usage of the concept of social metabolism, its origins and history, as well as the main currents or schools that exist around this concept. At the same time, the reviews and discussions included are used by the authors as starting points to draw conclusions and propose a theory of socio-ecological transformations. The theoretical and methodological innovations of this book include a distinction of two types of metabolic processes: tangible and intangible; the analysis of the social metabolism at different scales (in space and time) and a theory of socio-ecological change overcoming the merely “systemic” or “cybernetic” nature of conventional approaches, giving special protagonism to collective action.

Book The Andes

    Book Details:
  • Author : Axel Borsdorf
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2015-03-12
  • ISBN : 3319035304
  • Pages : 378 pages

Download or read book The Andes written by Axel Borsdorf and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Andes are attracting global interest again: they hold valuable mineral resources, tourists appreciate their great natural beauty and the diversity of indigenous cultures, climbers scale rock and ice faces, while many others are intrigued by regional political developments, such as the Bolivarian revolution in Venezuela or the almost unfettered hegemony of the neoliberal economic model in Chile. This volume is the first attempt for decades to present a complete overview of the longest mountain chain on the planet – a region of remarkable climatic, floristic and geologic diversity, where advanced civilization developed well before the arrival of the Spanish. Today the Andes continue to be characterized by their ethnic, demographic, cultural and economic diversity, as well as by the disparity of local socioeconomic groups. The Andean countries pursue a wide range of approaches to tackle the challenges of making the best use of their natural and cultural potential without damaging their ecological basis, as well as to overcome economic disparity and foster social cohesion. This book provides insights into this unique region and its most pressing issues, complemented by a wealth of pictures and comprehensive diagrams, which, in sum, help to better understand these fascinating mountains.
