A inicios del 2020 la humanidad fue sorprendida por una pandemia. Para asombro de todo el mundo, un nuevo coronavirus se instaló planetariamente, alterando en profundidad la cotidianeidad, la costumbre, el hábito y la rutina. El golpe fue grande, y las secuelas que dejó esta enfermedad, bautizada como COVID-19, pueden resultar mucho peores. Sobre todo, porque hay otras pandemias paralelas tan viejas de existir y casi invisibilizadas, aunque no se les llame así ni tengan el mismo significado biomédico, pero si están relacionadas a la salud pública y están conectadas al orden social, político, cultural y medio ambiental (genocidio, ecocidio, feminicidio, etc.) debido a la constante negligencia, irresponsabilidad y crueldad de la especie humana y de sus contradicciones, desigualdades y sesgos sociales, económicos y culturales. Para reflexionar sobre todo esto, no solo desde una mirada médico-bio- epidemiológica sino, en términos de una visión y consideración político-social y cultural, y más aún: ético-filosófica-estética trascendental, se presenta este libro titulado “El Antropoceno en Crisis y Otras Tantas Pandemias y Misceláneas”. Aquí se encontrarán 20 textos (la mayoría en español y algunos en inglés) que tratan directa o indirectamente, la cuestión del paradigma antropocénico y antropocéntrico del desarrollo actual en crisis, desde varios puntos de vista narrativos (artículos, ensayos, relatos, entrevistas e historias cortas (con mucha seriedad y con mucho sarcasmo o irreverencia al mismo tiempo); revisando, analizando, describiendo y buscando encontrar algunas respuestas e interrogantes y proponer algunas líneas alternativas a la situación para su posible consideración. Las y los autores de cada uno de los materiales tienen procedencias distintas y somos parte del grupo llamado ‘Perspectivas’, su formación y carrera profesional incluye varias diciplinas (antropología, salud global, salud mental, desarrollo, medicina, psicología, sociología, psicoanálisis, biología, literatura, periodismo, artes plásticas, abogacía, derechos humanos, etc.); su lugar de procedencia y de residencia es diverso (México, Guatemala, Honduras, Chile, Inglaterra, Argentina, Suiza, Canadá, etc.). ¿Por qué no podrían convivir armónicamente ciencia, literatura y otras artes plásticas, profesiones y oficios? La transdisciplinariedad nos marca un camino de conocimientos diversos que al final forman un todo universal. Es una representación y es un reflejo de la vida y el medioambiente en la realidad. La idea es intentar entender la crisis en que vivimos como humanidad a partir del modelo socioeconómico dominante, sensibilizándonos al respecto junto a una toma de posición ético-política-ideológica, buscando las salidas posibles a este empantanamiento que pareciera fagocitarnos, donde solo unos pocos se salvan, y donde las grandes mayorías de población en este planeta no encuentran caminos o alternativas.

Goodreads Choice winner for Nonfiction 2021 and instant #1 bestseller! A deeply moving collection of personal essays from John Green, the author of The Fault in Our Stars and Turtles All the Way Down. “The perfect book for right now.” –People “The Anthropocene Reviewed is essential to the human conversation.” –Library Journal, starred review The Anthropocene is the current geologic age, in which humans have profoundly reshaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, bestselling author John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale—from the QWERTY keyboard and sunsets to Canada geese and Penguins of Madagascar. Funny, complex, and rich with detail, the reviews chart the contradictions of contemporary humanity. As a species, we are both far too powerful and not nearly powerful enough, a paradox that came into sharp focus as we faced a global pandemic that both separated us and bound us together. John Green’s gift for storytelling shines throughout this masterful collection. The Anthropocene Reviewed is an open-hearted exploration of the paths we forge and an unironic celebration of falling in love with the world.

From Environmental To Ecological Law written by Kirsten Anker and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2020-12-30 with Law categories.
This book increases the visibility, clarity and understanding of ecological law. Ecological law is emerging as a field of law founded on systems thinking and the need to integrate ecological limits, such as planetary boundaries, into law. Presenting new thinking in the field, this book focuses on problem areas of contemporary law including environmental law, property law, trusts, legal theory and First Nations law and explains how ecological law provides solutions. Written by ecological law experts, it does this by 1) providing an overview of shortcomings of environmental law and other areas of contemporary law, 2) presenting specific examples of these shortcomings, 3) explaining what ecological law is and how it provides solutions to the shortcomings of contemporary law, and 4) showing how society can overcome some key challenges in the transition to ecological law. Drawing on a diverse range of case study examples including Indigenous law, ecological restoration and mining, this volume will be of great interest to students, scholars and policymakers of environmental and ecological law and governance, political science, environmental ethics and ecological and degrowth economics.

Legal Rights For Rivers written by Erin O'Donnell and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018-10-17 with Law categories.
In 2017 four rivers in Aotearoa New Zealand, India, and Colombia were given the status of legal persons, and there was a recent attempt to extend these rights to the Colorado River in the USA. Understanding the implications of creating legal rights for rivers is an urgent challenge for both water resource management and environmental law. Giving rivers legal rights means the law can see rivers as legal persons, thus creating new legal rights which can then be enforced. When rivers are legally people, does that encourage collaboration and partnership between humans and rivers, or establish rivers as another competitor for scarce resources? To assess what it means to give rivers legal rights and legal personality, this book examines the form and function of environmental water managers (EWMs). These organisations have legal personality, and have been active in water resource management for over two decades. EWMs operate by acquiring water rights from irrigators in rivers where there is insufficient water to maintain ecological health. EWMs can compete with farmers for access to water, but they can also strengthen collaboration between traditionally divergent users of the aquatic environment, such as environmentalists, recreational fishers, hunters, farmers, and hydropower. This book explores how EWMs use the opportunities created by giving nature legal rights, such as the ability to participate in markets, enter contracts, hold property, and enforce those rights in court. However, examination of the EWMs unearths a crucial and unexpected paradox: giving legal rights to nature may increase its legal power, but in doing so it can weaken community support for protecting the environment in the first place. The book develops a new conceptual framework to identify the multiple constructions of the environment in law, and how these constructions can interact to generate these unexpected outcomes. It explores EWMs in the USA and Australia as examples, and assesses the implications of creating legal rights for rivers for water governance. Lessons from the EWMs, as well as early lessons from the new ‘river persons,’ show how to use the law to improve river protection and how to begin to mitigate the problems of the paradox.

This volume brings together marginalized perspectives and communities into the mainstream discourse on education for sustainable development and global citizenship. Building on her earlier work, Sharma uses non-western perspectives to challenge dominant agendas and the underlying Western worldview in the UNESCO led discourse on global citizenship education. Chapters develop the theoretical framework around the three domains of learning within the global citizenship education conceptual dimensions of UNESCO--the cognitive, socio-emotional, and behavioral--and offer practical insights for educators. Value-creating global citizenship education is offered as a pedagogical approach to education for sustainable development and global citizenship in addition to and complementing other approaches mentioned within the recent UNESCO guidelines.

In The Revenge of Gaia , bestselling author James Lovelock- father of climate studies and originator of the influential Gaia theory which views the entire earth as a living meta-organism-provides a definitive look at our imminent global crisis. In this disturbing new book, Lovelock guides us toward a hard reality: soon, we may not be able to alter the oncoming climate crisis. Lovelock's influential Gaia theory, one of the building blocks of modern climate science, conceives of the Earth, including the atmosphere, oceans, biosphere and upper layers of rock, as a single living super-organism, regulating its internal environment much as an animal regulates its body temperature and chemical balance. But now, says Lovelock, that organism is sick. It is running a fever born of the combination of a sun whose intensity is slowly growing over millions of years, and an atmosphere whose greenhouse gases have recently spiked due to human activity. Earth will adjust to these stresses, but on time scales measured in the hundreds of millennia. It is already too late, Lovelock says, to prevent the global climate from "flipping" into an entirely new equilibrium state that will leave the tropics uninhabitable, and force migration to the poles. The Revenge of Gaia explains the stress the planetary system is under and how humans are contributing to it, what the consequences will be, and what humanity must do to rescue itself.

Este volumen coordinado por Aníbal G. Arregui y Juan Martín Dabezies recoge reflexiones de antropólogas y antropólogos que, sobreponiéndose al antropocentrismo fundacional de la disciplina, estudian relaciones sociales más allá de lo humano. Las historias que aquí se despliegan están pobladas de encuentros con algas, maíces, volcanes, murciélagos, sopas, jabalíes, peces o virus. Escritas por diecinueve autores y autoras de España e Iberoamérica, las etnografías de este libro muestran cómo los humanos y no humanos constantemente inventamos formas de relacionarnos para construir nuevas ecologías. Asentadas entre la tradición de la antropología ambiental, los estudios de ciencia y tecnología y la etnografía multiespecies, este importante y novedoso volumen sitúa al anthropos en una red de relaciones que nos reconoce como actores excesivos, vulnerables y necesitados de la inspiración vital que pueden ofrecernos otros organismos.

The Anthropocene has become a field of studies in which the influence of human activity on the Earth System and nature is both the main threat and the potential solution. Social Representations Theory has been evolving since the 1960s.It links knowledge and practice in everyday life and is an effective way to deal with systemic crises based on common sense. This book assembles key contributions by Latin American scholars working with social representations in the social sciences that are of conceptual relevance to the study of the Anthropocene and that investigate the societal consequences of complex interrelations between common sense and topics of global relevance, such asthe contradictions of sustainable development, the construction of risks beyond risk-perception, health, negotiation and governance in the field of education, gender equality, the usefulness of longitudinal and systemic ethnography and case studies, and agency and the link between inequality, crises and risk society in the context of COVID-19, presenting theoretical and methodological innovations fromSpanish, Portuguese and Frenchresearchthat have rarely been available in English. • This is the first book to address the relevance of Social Representations Theory for the Anthropocene as a societal era• It presents the multidisciplinary scope of Social Representations• This book covers emerging research contributions in Social Representations Theory from Latin America• This book presents innovative research and commentaries by established researchers in the field• This multidisciplinary book should be in the libraries of many disciplines in the social sciences and humanities
