  • THE ENVIRONMENTALISM of the POOR a Report for UNRISD for the WSSD

    THE ENVIRONMENTALISM of the POOR a Report for UNRISD for the WSSD

    J. Martinez-Alier Professor, Dpt. of Economics and Econ.History, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Member of the Scientific Committee, European Environment Agency THE ENVIRONMENTALISM OF THE POOR A report for UNRISD for the WSSD. University of Witswatersrand, 30 August 2002. Summary The world economy is increasing its input of energy and materials, and also its output of different sorts of waste. Optimistic views on the “dematerialization” of the economy are premature. The environmental load of the economy, driven by consumption and by population growth, is growing all the time even when the economy (measured in money terms) is based on the service sector. Hence, the many ecological distribution conflicts that arise. They are not only conflicts of interests but also conflicts on values. In this report, several such conflicts are described, and the discrepancies in the languages of valuation used by different agents are emphasized. Poor people have defended the environment in rural areas, and also in cities. Well- known instances include the Chipko movement in the Himalaya, the struggle on the Narmada dams, Chico Mendes’ fight in Amazonia, and the struggles by the Ogoni, the Ijaw and other groups in the Niger Delta against the damage from oil extraction by Shell. Until recently, the agents in such conflicts rarely saw themselves as environmentalists. Their concern is with livelihood, with ‘oikonomia’. They struggle for environmental justice, and thereby they contribute to the environmental sustainability of the economy. Such environmentalism of livelihood is often expressed as the defence of legally established old community property rights. Sometimes, new community rights are invoked.

  • The Possibility of Opera

    The Possibility of Opera

    7 The Possibility of Opera In the performances of the Prologue of Orfeo, as staged by Luca Ronconi (see chapter 3), and of Combattimento, as staged by Pierre Audi (chapter 6), a char- acter at first represents the narrator — La Musica in the former case, Testo in the latter one. Both characters assert their presences through musical, verbal, and scenic effects. At a later phase — respectively, in the third and seventh strophes of their settings — La Musica and Testo also emerge as focalizing agents, their func- tion as narrators gradually receding into the background in order to “give life” to focalized characters — respectively, Orpheus and Tancredi/Clorinda. Clorinda becomes so autonomous a character as to herself become a focalizer at the end. Under this perspective, both performances can be said to stage the birth of musi- cal theater, and in the second case, we might add, out of the spirit of the madrigal. The madrigal is traditionally dominated by the narrator’s voice, diffused into the polyphonic concentus. But in the hands of Monteverdi, particularly in his Books V to VIII, the madrigal becomes the privileged site for the performance of a plurality of points of view. Characters come to life intermittently even despite their absence from the verbal text as such, thanks, for example, to the focalizing role played by instruments in concertato madrigals. Still, the narrator remains the ever-present voice (in narrative terms) that is audible and visible mostly in the continuo line, but also intermittently in individual voices (in physical terms) such as the bass — this was a traditional conduit of the “speaker” since Arcadelt.

    L'opera I (Seicento E Settecento)

    L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) (modulo 103) Luca Zoppelli Università di Lecce e di Friburgo Ultima modifica 24 Febbraio 2003 ICoN – Italian Culture on the Net Luca Zoppelli – L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) Presentazione Il modulo è dedicato al teatro musicale italiano e alla sua diffusione come sistema europeo, a partire dall’invenzione del genere operistico nella Firenze di fine Cinquecento, sino agli eventi storici di fine Settecento, che ne alterano largamente la fisionomia. La trattazione segue il mutare dei caratteri drammaturgici e stilistici del genere in relazione ai contesti ed agli ambienti produttivi che hanno visto svilupparsi dapprima la favola per musica cortigiana, poi l’opera pubblica di tipo veneziano, infine - nel Settecento - l’opera seria e quella comica. Si prendono in considerazione, inoltre, alcune delle più rilevanti questioni di ordine estetico sollevate dagli osservatori contemporanei a proposito del teatro musicale. Nel modulo si citano alcune scene tratte da opere di particolare rilievo storico ed artistico per individuare e descrivere alcuni procedimenti drammatici, letterari e musicali. Sebbene il modulo non sia concepito come una galleria di monografie dedicate a singoli compositori, questi esempi consentono anche di tracciare brevi profili stilistici di alcune figure particolarmente importanti, come Monteverdi, Händel o Mozart. 2 ICoN – Italian Culture on the Net Luca Zoppelli – L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) Guida al modulo Scopo del modulo Il modulo intende fornire una conoscenza generale dello sviluppo dell’opera italiana, anche nel suo spazio europeo, durante i secoli XVII e XVIII. L’esame delle condizioni sociali e produttive spiegherà i caratteri e i mutamenti estetici e drammaturgici del genere.
