The site was recognized and inscribed as a Cultural Landscape during the 36th session of the World Heritage Council on July 1, 2012, in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The work now presented has been developed in a long process of discussion and agreement among technicians and managers of the elements integrating the site listed as World Heritage within the Management Committee for the Landscape of Rio de Janeiro, created by IPHAN‟s Directive 464, dated December 29, 2011, including representatives from all three administrative authorities involved – city, state and federal –, in the fields of culture, environment, urban planning and landscape architecture, as well as managers in specific areas of the site, such as the Botanical Gardens, the Tijuca National Park and the fortresses located within military areas. The work comes in response to the requirement presented at the moment of nomination for structuring an integrated management plan of the listed area to be evaluated by the World Heritage Committee in 2014. Because of the site‟s unique characteristic as a cultural landscape within a complex urban area, such as the city of Rio de Janeiro with more than 11 million inhabitants in its metropolitan area, incorporating several elements associated to very distinct management models in the hands of also very distinct institutions belonging to all three spheres of the Brazilian executive branch (municipal, state and national), the organization of this Management Plan had to seek an original management pact and model. As cultural landscapes in urban areas cannot be conceived as detached monuments, its management must be integrated to the city as a whole, bringing benefits to the collectivity. Likewise, the management of its integrity and exceptionality as expressed in the values identified in the site cannot follow the traditional standards for the management of architectural monuments, or even of cultural landscapes associated to traditional populations, rural areas or parks and planned areas. The management of a cultural landscape in an urban area requires the creation of a pact and the establishment of a forum, such as the Landscape Management Committee, capable of giving voice to the different agents and finding agreed solutions for action within the site. It also requires the incorporation of a discussion on the landscape‟s values and how to maintain them as an instrument for sustainable development and for the exercise of citizenship in its relation with the dynamics of a living megalopolis in permanent construction. 9 SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN - RIO DE JANEIRO: CARIOCA LANDSCAPES BETWEEN THE MOUNTAIN AND THE SEA This plan herein presented by the National Historic and Artistic Heritage Institute has been jointly developed with different civil society agents in Rio de Janeiro and Brazil. Furthermore it is intended to be a step towards the construction of more democratic spaces for the practice of World Heritage-based sustainable development, contributing to a transformation in the notion of heritage, more suitable to the challenges faced in these first decades of the 21st century. 10 SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN - RIO DE JANEIRO: CARIOCA LANDSCAPES BETWEEN THE MOUNTAIN AND THE SEA 1. CONCEPT AND GOALS The Management Plan for the World Heritage Site of Rio de Janeiro: Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea will guide the actions performed within the area established as a world heritage site and recognized by UNESCO, comprising all of its elements and its buffer zone. The Plan is based upon strategies for cultural and environmental sustainability of the site‟s global landscape, promoting: a heightened awareness, among society, of the importance of valuing, conserving and preserving this heritage as a reference of the culture and memory derived from the Carioca, the Fluminense and Brazilian identity; an improvement of instruments of management and planning for the elements in the Site; the application of the aforesaid instruments towards an integrated management of the Site, involving the three spheres of government (municipal, state and federal), private partners and civil society; an integrated perspective of heritage, incorporating its different dimentions, natural and cultural, tangible and intangible, promoting global heritage management through its cultural landscape. Measures for shared management are structured around four dimensions: institutional, normative, technical- operational and economical-financial. After defining the territorial unit that includes all the elements of the Site, the shared management structure is composed by a Management Commission, an Executive Secretariat and an Advisory Board. In the normative and technical-operational dimensions, shared management will establish new norms for the Site‟s protection and governance, making them compatible with the existing legislation. In the economic-financial dimension, a Fund for the Conservation of the Rio World Heritage Site will be created. Coordination will be achieved through the Federal agencies of cultural and environmental heritage, namely the National Historic and Artistic Heritage Institute (IPHAN), with the collaboration of the Ministry of Environment through

Modernism Without Modernity: The Rise of Modernist Architecture in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, 1890-1940 Abstract : Why did machine-age modernist architecture diffuse to Latin America so quickly after its rise in Continental Europe during the 1910s and 1920s? Why was it a more successful movement in relatively backward Brazil and Mexico than in more affluent and industrialized Argentina? After reviewing the historical development of architectural modernism in these three countries, several explanations are tested against the comparative evidence. Standards of living, industrialization, sociopolitical upheaval, and the absence of working-class consumerism are found to be limited as explanations. As in Europe, Modernism

  • Continuity and Mathematical Ontology in Aristotle
    Journal of Ancient Philosophy, vol. 14 issue 1, 2020. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-9471.v14i1p30-61 Continuity and Mathematical Ontology in Aristotle Keren Wilson Shatalov In this paper I argue that Aristotle’s understanding of mathematical continuity constrains the mathematical ontology he can consistently hold. On my reading, Aristotle can only be a mathematical abstractionist of a certain sort. To show this, I first present an analysis of Aristotle’s notion of continuity by bringing together texts from his Metaphysica and Physica, to show that continuity is, for Aristotle, a certain kind of per se unity, and that upon this rests his distinction between continuity and contiguity. Next I argue briefly that Aristotle intends for his discussion of continuity to apply to pure mathematical objects such as lines and figures, as well as to extended bodies. I show that this leads him to a difficulty, for it does not at first appear that the distinction between continuity and contiguity can be preserved for abstract mathematicals. Finally, I present a solution according to which Aristotle’s understanding of continuity can only be saved if he holds a certain kind of mathematical ontology. My topic in this paper is Aristotle’s understanding of mathematical continuity. While the idea that continua are composed of infinitely many points is the present day orthodoxy, the Aristotelian understanding of continua as non-punctiform and infinitely divisible was the reigning theory for much of the history of western mathematics, and there is renewed interest in it from current mathematicians and philosophers of mathematics.

Bras. Polít. Int. 57 (2): 9-28 [2014] Introduction José Maria da Silva Paranhos Jr., Baron of Rio Branco, epitomizes Brazilian nationalism.1 Despite the impenetrable personality that motivated Nabuco to call him a “Sphinx,” his political and diplomatic legacy, especially with regard to the demarcation of national borders, is revered as of great importance for the construction of the international identity of Brazil. Although much has been written about the character and his legacy, it seems clear the laudatory character of the vast majority of those narratives. Given the author’s dissatisfaction with this state of affairs and out of respect for the memory of Itamaraty’s patron, I intend to address an issue that lies at the heart of a series of distortions about the meaning of Paranhos Jr.’s diplomacy: the role of naval power in the broader context of the grand strategy implemented during Rio Branco’s administration as chancellor.

  • Berkeley's Case Against Realism About Dynamics
    Lisa Downing [Published in Berkeley’s Metaphysics, ed. Muehlmann, Penn State Press 1995, 197-214. Turbayne Essay Prize winner, 1992.] Berkeley's case against realism about dynamics While De Motu, Berkeley's treatise on the philosophical foundations of mechanics, has frequently been cited for the surprisingly modern ring of certain of its passages, it has not often been taken as seriously as Berkeley hoped it would be. Even A.A. Luce, in his editor's introduction to De Motu, describes it as a modest work, of limited scope. Luce writes: The De Motu is written in good, correct Latin, but in construction and balance the workmanship falls below Berkeley's usual standards. The title is ambitious for so brief a tract, and may lead the reader to expect a more sustained argument than he will find. A more modest title, say Motion without Matter, would fitly describe its scope and content. Regarded as a treatise on motion in general, it is a slight and disappointing work; but viewed from a narrower angle, it is of absorbing interest and high importance. It is the application of immaterialism to contemporary problems of motion, and should be read as such. ...apart from the Principles the De Motu would be nonsense.1 1The Works of George Berkeley, Bishop of Cloyne, ed. A.A. Luce and T.E. Jessop (London: Thomas Nelson and Sons, 1948-57), 4: 3-4. In this paper, all references to Berkeley are to the Luce-Jessop edition. Quotations from De Motu are taken from Luce's translation. I use the following abbreviations for Berkeley’s works: PC Philosophical Commentaries PHK-I Introduction to The Principles of Human Knowledge PHK The Principles of Human Knowledge DM De Motu A Alciphron TVV The Theory of Vision Vindicated and Explained S Siris 1 There are good general reasons to think, however, that Berkeley's aims in writing the book were as ambitious as the title he chose.
