  • Documentary Sources for a Study of the Maltese Landscape Nicholas C
    16 Documentary Sources for a Study of the Maltese landscape Nicholas C. Vella and Mevrick Spiteri Tangible objects form a challenging kind of historic record. They challenge us because we know that objects have meaning if only we know how to decipher it; moreover by their very presence, and refusing to go away, objects demand to be interpreted. To archaeologists no form of material artefact is perhaps more challenging - tantalizing and illuminating at one and the same time - than the vast disorderly collection of human artefacts that constitute the cultural landscape. By cultural landscape, archaeologists (but also geographers) mean the total assemblage of visible things that human beings have done to alter the face of the earth for economic, social, religious, or symbolic purposes: quarries for the extraction of building stone and clay; dams to control water, cisterns to store it and conduits to deliver it for irrigation purposes and to sustain human and animal life; the purposeful manipulation of the earth's vegetative cover in farms, woodland, orchards and terraces; tracks, paths and roads used to transport objects and ideas; walls erected to subdivide land into manageable units and to separate portions of the earth from one another.1 Landscapes differ in appearance from place to place, not only because they are made up of changing ecosystems that are peculiar to a region or a place but also for the self-evident reason that all cultures have collective ambitions about the way they interact with the earth's surface to achieve different goals over time. It can be said, therefore, that landscapes are a kind of document, preserving traces of the cultural autobiography that humans have carved and continue to carve into the earth's surface.

  • Analysis of the Interaction Between Air Transportation and Economic Activity: a Worldwide Perspective
    ANALYSIS OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN AIR TRANSPORTATION AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITY: A WORLDWIDE PERSPECTIVE Mariya A. Ishutkina and R. John Hansman This report is based on the Doctoral Dissertation of Mariya A. Ishutkina submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The work presented in this report was also conducted in collaboration with the members of the Doctoral Committee: Prof. R. John Hansman (Chair) Prof. John D. Sterman Prof. Ian A. Waitz Report No. ICAT-2009-2 March 2009 MIT International Center for Air Transportation (ICAT) Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA 02139 USA Analysis of the Interaction Between Air Transportation and Economic Activity: A Worldwide Perspective by Mariya A. Ishutkina Submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics on March 11, 2009, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Abstract Air transportation usage and economic activity are interdependent. Air transportation provides employment and enables certain economic activities which are dependent on the availability of air transportation services. The economy, in turn, drives the demand for air transportation services resulting in the feedback relationship between the two. The objective of this work is to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between air transportation and economic activity. More specifically, this work seeks to (1) develop a feedback model to describe the relationship between air transportation and economic activity and (2) identify factors which stimulate or suppress air transportation development. To achieve these objectives this work uses an exploratory research method which combines literature review, aggregate data and case study analyses.

  • Quarry Worry
    Quarry Worry Is there anything to worry about quarries? Why would we worry on just a deep pit which once was a piece of land? The problem is- it once was a piece of land. Most of the quarries end up useless open- pit mines with danger signs stuck on the outskirts. Stone is vitally to our modern lifestyle and so such requirement can only be established by cutting these stones from quarries. In the Maltese Islands, quarries are hollowed out to extract mineral resources from geological formations. The extracted raw materials are used mainly by the quarry industry for the construction of buildings connected to services and economic activities. Some of these examples include: houses, hospitals, offices, churches and roads. In Malta the localities were quarries can be found are Mosta, Valletta, Marsascala, Mellieha, Mqabba, Siggiewi, Qrendi, Zejtun and Swieqi. The problem with quarries is that each quarry has a specific lifetime within which the mineral resources can be extracted. In the case of Malta, this happens when the lower coralline limestone is encountered while quarrying. Quarries which were once of a social and economic benefit, end up being an irreversible scar in the landscape of the Maltese Islands. The disused quarries have to be closed as a good precaution of any harm; however the impact of quarries on the natural environment is endless. Direct impacts include loss of agricultural land which results in loss of natural habitats for animals and wild plants. Other environmental impacts include change in geological features, damaging for crops and fields, soil erosion and noise and dust pollution.

  • Exploring Institutional Evolution in the Development Planning System of a Small Island State: Malta
    By Cassar, R., 2012 Exploring Institutional Evolution in the Development Planning System of a Small Island State: Malta Kerli Kirsimaa Exploring Institutional Evolution in the Development Planning System of a Small Island State: Malta Supervision: Dr. Arnold van der Valk; Land Use Planning Group, Wageningen University Dr.Paul Gauci; University of Malta: Department of Spatial Planning and Infrastructure, Faculty for the Built Environment Second reviewer: Dr.ir. Gerrit-Jan Carsjens Land Use Planning Group Wageningen University Author: Kerli Kirsimaa Reg. No. 890217436030 [email protected] Study Program: Urban Environmental Management, Land Use Planning Group Course code: LUP-80436 (36 ECTS) Wageningen, October, 2013 Abstract Malta is a small densely populated island state in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. Similarly to other small (island) states, Malta has to take into consideration the many challenges that its smallness brings to the country. The history of having been a British colony for 150 years has made Malta adopt most of its administrative and parliamentary system from the United Kingdom. As the Maltese Public Law was at the time already based on British model, the adoption of British planning legislation does not appear to have been questioned. What took place followed the concept of institutional transplantation, the transfer of institutions from one setting to another.
