  • Argentine Territorial Nationalism Revisited: the Malvinas/Falklands Dispute and Geographies of Everyday Nationalism
    Political Geography 30 (2011) 441e449 Contents lists available at SciVerse ScienceDirect Political Geography journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/polgeo Argentine territorial nationalism revisited: The Malvinas/Falklands dispute and geographies of everyday nationalism Matthew C. Benwell a,*, Klaus Dodds b,1 a University of Liverpool, School of Environmental Sciences, Roxby Building, Chatham Street, L69 7ZT, UK b Department of Geography, Royal Holloway, University of London, Egham, Surrey, TW20 0EX, UK abstract Keywords: This paper is concerned with expressions of Argentine territorial nationalism with a specific focus on the Popular geopolitics Malvinas/Falklands dispute. Billig’s(1995)notion of banal nationalism has been widely applied as Malvinas/Falklands Islands a means to understanding the ways in which national identities are learnt and reproduced by the Everyday nationalism populace, through a multitude of ‘mundane’ representations. More recently Billig’s (1995) thesis has Territory been critiqued (Jones & Merriman, 2009) for its rigidity and inability to take account of the different ways these nationalisms are produced and received (Müller, 2008) within and outside of the nation-state. We build on these interventions by arguing that research into territorial nationalism should not ignore the wider temporal, spatial, political and everyday contexts in which such discourses emerge and are consumed. To illustrate this diversity we contend that territorial nationalism and, more specifically, the attention placed on the Malvinas dispute by the Argentine government has varied in its intensity, depending on wider political events and agendas in the South West Atlantic and Latin American regions. Secondly, through the use of interview extracts from a pilot study conducted with 20 young people in Buenos Aires, we suggest that Argentine territorial nationalism is not received uniformly across the nation-state and, rather, should be explored in its everyday contexts.

  • International Viñas Del Aconcagua December
    GOLD MEDAL WINE CLUB TASTE THE ADVENTURE ARGENTINA C URRENTLY THE WORLD’S 5TH LARGEST WINE PRODUCER, ARGENTINA IS POISED TO BECOME A SERIOUS PLAYER IN THE INTERNATIONAL WINE MARKET. As with much of Argentina’s cuisine, the country’s huge wine industry had its roots in Spain. The first documented record of a commercial vineyard was by Jesuit missionaries in 1557. Three hundred years later, French agronomist Miguel Aime Pouget brought the first cuttings of Malbec to Argentina that would eventually grow to become the country’s signature varietal. Argentina currently ranks fifth in annual production and eighth in production, making its wine industry a very important part of the national economy. Vineyards now stretch from the tiny Jujuy Region in the far north to the Rio Negro Region, south southwest of Buenos Aires and far to the south of most vineyard land. Mendoza, in the center of the country, is the highest-rated wine producing region in the country and is home to the first quality movement the country has experienced in the past thirty years. In Mendoza, most of the vineyards are located at relatively high altitudes, ranging from 1900 to 3600 feet, much higher than most commercial vineyards in Europe and the United States. Many Argentine vintners place the altitudes of the vines on their front labels as a source of great pride and accomplishment. For many hundreds of years, quantity, as opposed to quality, was the formula for most Argentine wineries. With huge national consumption, there was little need of extremely high quality wines to compete on the international markets.

  • Geography and Vexillology: Landscapes in the Flags
    Geography and vexillology: landscapes in flags By Tiago José Berg Abstract This paper aims to present how the national flags have on its symbo - lism a representation of landscape. In geography, both in academic levels as well as in school teaching, landscape takes on a central theme that has so far been the subject of scientific debate of great importance by geographers as a way of seeing the world and a form of representing a specific surface of the Earth. In vexillology, the symbolism of the modern nation-state has developed a number of examples where the arrangement of stripes (or even the coat of arms) of some national flags bring certain aspects that are not immediately apparent, but they may become beautiful examples of a stylized representation of the landscape. Therefore, in this paper we seek a dialogue between geography and vexillology, showing how the representation of landscape in the flags can become a relevant theme to be used in academic research and a fascinating resource to enrich the teaching in schools. Introduction The last decades of the twentieth century saw the revival of interest in studies of the landscape geographers, both the number of publications, the associations made with the theme. The landscape, rather than a return to “classical geography” or even the new perspectives presented by the cultural geography, back to being inserted in geographical studies with a different approach. Both in academic level as well as in school education, the landscape takes on a theme that has been the subject of scien - tific debate of great importance by geographers as a way of seeing the world and a way of representing the specific surface of the Earth.
