We will publish infor- mation on every neighborhood of the city on a monthly basis, as well as relevant articles related to the aforementioned Board.

It included the construc- tion of four docks, two harbors (one on the View of Buenos Aires from the river, Bramblia, 1794. north and another on the south) with two canals and 16 docks or warehouses which were built following an English functional architecture. Furthermore, 3 million square feet were taken from the river. The Dársena Norte became a real neuralgic center, where the most important installations took place: it was a historical place. It is believed that towards June 11th, 1826, the Combate de los Pozos took place in this area during the war with the Empire of Brazil. The hydroplane Plus Ultra landed 100 years later. This plane carried out the first flight between Spain and America. In the beginning of the 20th century, Puerto Madero became obsolete and, in 1907, the construction of an extension in the shape of a comb was authorized. Huer- go had considered this. These works began in 1911 and came to an end in 1919 with the construction of five harbors. It was baptized General Project for a port of Buenos Aires as Puerto Nuevo (New Port).

By then, the Municipal Bathing Area opened transformed the old stores into fast-food in Costanera Sur. It was one of the coolest restaurants, offices and lofts with incredible spots for the porteños until the 1970s, when views to the river. In the east, a number of the Municipality prohibited swimming in exclusive skyscrapers were built. This is how the waters due to its contamination.

It wasn´t successful but, after the pieces of land arose, a Nature Reserve was created. This project came to an end with the construction of two motor- ways: 25 de Mayo and Perito Moreno. The 350 hectares taken from the river were part of this as well. It was officially created by the Consejo Deliberante (Deliberative Board) in 1986. With time, Puerto Madero became an abandoned place. For this reason, the Cor- poración Antiguo Puerto Madero S.A. was created in 1986 to recover and urbanize the area. It was a public corporation constituted by the National Government and the Mu- nicipality of Buenos Aires. Afterwards, 170 hectares were transferred. These belonged to the Administración General de Puertos, Ferrocarriles Argentinos and Junta Nacional de Granos. The Municipality took on its ad- ministration and decided to urbanize it.

  • The BUENOS AIRES DECLARATION
    The BUENOS AIRES DECLARATION The WTTC Travel & Tourism Declaration on Illegal Trade in Wildlife Introduction The scale of wildlife crime has drastically increased in recent years. The UN World Wildlife Crime Report shows that over 7,000 species of animals and plants from across all regions are impacted, and this illegal trade is estimated to be worth up to $20 billion annually. Flora and fauna are often key drivers of Travel & Tourism activity and as such it is in the interest of the sector to support initiatives to combat the illegal trade in them. While there are many initiatives taking place at ground level, until now there has been no co-ordinated, high profile engagement from the Travel & Tourism sector as a whole. Following a call to action by John Scanlon, Secretary General of the Convention on Illegal Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) at the 2017 WTTC Global Summit, WTTC has developed a Declaration for the Travel & Tourism sector worldwide to 01demonstrate co-ordinated commitment and action to combat the illegal trade in wildlife. The Declaration was launched at the 2018 WTTC Global Summit in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on 19 April 2018. 02What is the declaration? The Declaration contains 12 actions which the Travel & Tourism sector can take to combat the illegal wildlife trade, grouped into 4 areas: 1. Expression and demonstration of agreement to tackle the illegal wildlife trade 2. Promotion of responsible wildlife-based tourism 3. Awareness raising among customers, staff and trade networks 4. Engaging with communities and investing locally Who can sign? WTTC Members and other Travel & Tourism related entities with an interest in and commitment to this issue – industry organisations, companies, tourist boards and NGOs – are all invited to sign 03the Declaration.

A reunião desses textos em livro, originalmente apresentados e publicados entre 2006 e 2011, ressalta o valor dos parâmetros comparativos propostos, que passam por três linhas mestras, a fim de orientar a reflexão sobre os fenômenos em ambos os países, e se referem a relações objetivas fundamentais, as quais nortearam as realizações dessas vanguardas. Na primeira dessas linhas, encontra-se a posição do autor com relação à historiografia literária e artística, a qual construiu um relato triunfalista sobre as primeiras gerações modernistas nos dois países. Miceli pretende reconstituir as dimensões sociais do trabalho intelectual no período em questão e reavaliar as contribuições efetivas desses intelectuais, bem como explicitar as condições sociais que possibilitaram suas emergências. Em nenhum dos ensaios essa proposta fica mais clara do que naqueles dedicados a Jorge Luis Borges. A escolha desse autor é significativa, pois sua figura se tornou a do escritor puro e desistoricizado, uma façanha alcançada a partir da junção entre a lógica particular do campo literário, que tende a apagar as constrições sociais que determinam as práticas literárias, e os esforços do próprio Borges para ser identificado com o escritor puro, passando pelo apagamento deliberado dos
