Juliana Michaello Macedo Dias y Prof. Dr. Walcler de Lima Mendes Júnior), Grupo de Investigación Identidad y Territorio (Facultad de Arquitectura de la Universidad Federal de Rio Grande do Sul – Coordinación Prof. Dr. Eber Pires Marzulo), Grupo de Investigación Modernidad y Cultura (Instituto de Investigación y Planeamiento Urbano y Regional de la Universidad Federal de Rio de Janeiro – Coordinación Prof. Dr. Frederico Guilherme Bandeira de Araujo), Olho – Laboratorio de Estudios Audiovisuales (Facultad de Educación de la Universidad Estadual de Campinas – Coordinación Prof. Dr. Wenceslao Machado de Oliveira Junior), Grupo de Investigación Entrópicos (Escuela de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad Federal de Goiás – Coordinación Prof. Dra.

Leonor Arfuch). También integran la red los siguientes investigadores individuales asociados: 7 Prof. Dra. Thais de Bhanthumchinda Portela (Facultad de Arquitectura de la Universidad Federal de Bahía), Prof. Dra. Ana Francisca Azevedo (Departamento de Geografía de la Universidad de Minho – Portugal) y Prof. Dr. Juliano Ximenes Ponte (Facultad de Arquitectura de la Universidad Federal de Pará). *** En un contexto marcado por la inquietante centralidad de expresiones políticas que en la arena pública se disputan la definición de democracia, este simposio busca interrogar el lugar que tienen la memoria y los afectos en una contienda que encuentra en las ciudades un espacio privilegiado. Bajo el título “Escenarios de inquietud. Ciudades, poéticas, políticas”, nos proponemos reflexionar en torno a dos cuestiones. En primer lugar, la politicidad de la memoria en la construcción de imágenes, narrativas e identidades en las ciudades latinoamericanas contemporáneas. En segundo lugar, la necesidad de producir diferenciaciones críticas en el campo de la afectividad pública entre formas que amenazan, o bien fortalecen, una experiencia democrática orientada por ideas de igualdad, libertad y justicia. El desafío será, entonces, explorar cruces y articulaciones entre estas dos dimensiones, poniendo el foco en las poéticas y políticas en juego. De este modo quisiéramos contribuir a complejizar, desde perspectivas

CHAPTER 1 Introduction There are two basic strategies for coping with life in the desert: (1) to be res- ident and sedentary and by behavioural or physiological tactics able to withstand extremes of heat and cold, lack of water and fluctuations in the availability of food and plant cover, or (2) to be a migrant, and to oppor- tunistically or seasonally move to where these resources are available. For at least one group of animals, the avifauna, both strategies have their advan- tages and disadvantages (Andersson 1980). For sedentary, resident species the advantages are an intimate knowledge of the patch in which they live,and for some a permanent home, but the quality of life in the patch is variable, and there is no escape from stochastic weather events that may temporarily transform the patch into a place where making a living becomes very hard indeed. For species that move, the advantages are to be able to find a patch where resources are at least in reasonable supply,even though there are asso- ciated costs – the energetic costs of moving and maintaining water balance (Maclean 1996), the difficulties of finding patches that offer such resources, increased competition at the patches and the lack of a permanent territory and/or pair bond.

Artes drásticas, assim, a esses poderes, ou às suas concernentes razões apolíneas, não se constituem como artes lícitas. São inúteis. Rabiscos, garatujas, ruídos sem sentido ou lógica. Paradoxalmente, aqui são valoradas como desúteis, como artes que não afirmam e nem operam premidas por quaisquer exigências externas de eficiência _prazos, urgências, medidas, precisão, forma padrão_, mas que primam pelas afectações poiéticas que possam suscitar. São artes que se manifestam em sua drasticidade, na pura superfície de seu expressar-se e no tempo de um presente que nunca se presentifica, enquanto evidenciação de devires sem início ou fim ou trajetória ou direção fixas. São artes do revolucionar-se, de um obrar louco que inventa em suas criações as próprias e momentâneas regras de seu obrar. São artes cujas criações são sempre e necessariamente de múltiplos e difusos autores, mesmo quando agenciadas por um único indivíduo, persona que se faz singular nesse próprio obrar.

Rooiberg guesthouse forms part of the success story ofthe recently established Richtersveld Community Conservancy. The first of its kind in South Africa, its creation has doubled the area of Richtersveld land under conservation.

  • Conservation, Sustainable Development and Ecotourjsm in South Africa and Kwazulu-Natal: a Policy-Analysis
    CONSERVATION, SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND ECOTOURJSM IN SOUTH AFRICA AND KWAZULU-NATAL: A POLICY-ANALYSIS by Anne Sylvie Slembrouck Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Political Studies, University of Natal Pietermaritzburg November 1995 ii ABSTRACT The thesis explores the realms of conservation and sustainable development. A growing environmental concern is characteristic of the twentfeth century. Never before has mankind been so aware of the greenhouse effect or the hole in the " ozone. It is a concern which affects our understanding of human interactions with one another, as well as with our environment. Development is finally being scrutinized by scientists and philosophers alike. The consequence is a global movement towards the virtuous utopia of sustainable development. The thesis examines the evolution of environmentalism, both in a global context and here·in South Africa. It clarifies the relationship between the earth's natural resources and humanity's obsession with progress. The world is no longer a web of isolated countries. Technology and transport facilitate international movement which in turn fosters foreign cultural contact. { Tourism is a leisure-orientated activity which is expanding feverishly worldwide. Tourism is often seen as enabling development. For some countries, it is a major source of revenue. This shows that tourism can impact tremendously on the people of a country. Research has proved that tourism affects a country's people as well as their natural or build environment. Ecotourlsm, which is tourism based on natural resources, needs sensitive management which would react to a particular country's fragility.
