The nineteenth century was an era of breathtakingly ambitious geographic expeditions across the Americas. The seminal Chorographic Commission of Colombia, which began in 1850 and lasted about a decade, was one of Latin America's most extensive. The commission's mandate was to define and map the young republic and its resources with an eye toward modernization. In this history of the commission, Nancy P. Appelbaum focuses on the geographers' fieldwork practices and visual production as the men traversed the mountains, savannahs, and forests of more than thirty provinces in order to delineate the country's territorial and racial composition. Their assumptions and methods, Appelbaum argues, contributed to a long-lasting national imaginary. What jumps out of the commission's array of reports, maps, sketches, and paintings is a portentous tension between the marked differences that appeared before the eyes of the geographers in the field and the visions of sameness to which they aspired. The commissioners and their patrons believed that a prosperous republic required a unified and racially homogeneous population, but the commission's maps and images paradoxically emphasized diversity and helped create a "country of regions." By privileging the whiter inhabitants of the cool Andean highlands over those of the boiling tropical lowlands, the commission left a lasting but problematic legacy for today's Colombians.

En la actualidad hemos reconocido el peso de la acción humana en la transformación reciente del planeta lo que hemos llamado cambio climático y el Antropoceno, por lo tanto, resulta fundamental tener una visión de la historia que reconozca que el pasado humano está entremezclado con el devenir del mundo natural. Un pasado vivo. Dos siglos de historia ambiental latinoamericana recogen los avances hechos en ese sentido para entender los acelerados cambios producidos en los últimos dos siglos en América Latina y el Caribe. Cada capítulo presenta una visión general, desde un ángulo ambiental, de la historia de algunos países, regiones y biomas, como México, el Caribe, las selvas y las ciudades, o sobre temas transversales a toda la región, como la minería, la ganadería, la conservación de la naturaleza y la ciencia. Sus autores son trece de los más reconocidos investigadores en este campo. Además, esta obra cuenta con una introducción que propone cuatro grandes temas de la historia ambiental de la región y un contrapunto final que la ubica en el contexto global. Un pasado vivo es indicativo de la madurez que ha alcanzado esta área de la historia y servirá de base para estudios futuros.

Though still a relatively young field, the study of Latin American environmental history is blossoming, as the contributions to this definitive volume demonstrate. Bringing together thirteen leading experts on the region, A Living Past synthesizes a wide range of scholarship to offer new perspectives on environmental change in Latin America and the Spanish Caribbean since the nineteenth century. Each chapter provides insightful, up-to-date syntheses of current scholarship on critical countries and ecosystems (including Brazil, Mexico, the Caribbean, the tropical Andes, and tropical forests) and such cross-cutting themes as agriculture, conservation, mining, ranching, science, and urbanization. Together, these studies provide valuable historical contexts for making sense of contemporary environmental challenges facing the region.

PRESENTACIÓN El derecho forestal cobra extraordinaria relevancia como herramienta para la concreción de diversos fines del derecho ambiental, especialmente aquellos relativos a alcanzar el uso racional de los recursos naturales, la conservación de la naturaleza, y avanzar hacia el desarrollo sostenible. Ante la necesidad de ahondar en su contenido y con la cadena forestal como guía del estudio propuesto, el Grupo de Investigación en Derecho del Medio Ambiente de la Universidad Externado de Colombia diseñó y propuso un proyecto de investigación jurídico que permitiera ilustrar suficientemente a los diversos operadores jurídicos que se ven involucrados en el sector forestal.Para lograr ese objetivo, el proyecto de investigación propuesto se dio a conocer a un grupo de expertos nacionales y extranjeros reconocidos por sus trabajos previos en derecho forestal y/o por su aporte al derecho ambiental colombiano o internacional. A estos autores se les solicitó escoger alguna de las temáticas que identificamos como esenciales y proponer un trabajo investigativo que debía cumplir con una serie de parámetros formales y de fondo que fueron guía de sus trabajos. Una vez recibidas las propuestas específicas de investigación, los temas de estudio se reordenaron y clasificaron para lograr la completitud del estudio propuesto. El trabajo preparatorio de la investigación que hoy nos complace presentar trajo como resultado esta obra conformada por nueve secciones, que dan cuenta de la multiplicidad de dimensiones desde las cuales se puede abordar la cuestión jurídica forestal. De igual manera, este escrito permite evidenciar cómo el trabajo de investigación individual y colectivo permite resultados como los que el lector podrá observar en este documento.

During the nineteenth century, gridding, graphing, and surveying proliferated as never before as nations and empires expanded into hitherto "unknown" territories. Though nominally geared toward justifying territorial claims and collecting scientific data, expeditions also produced vast troves of visual and artistic material. This book considers the explosion of expeditionary mapping and its links to visual culture across the Americas, arguing that acts of measurement are also aesthetic acts. Such visual interventions intersect with new technologies, with sociopolitical power and conflict, and with shifting public tastes and consumption practices. Several key questions shape this examination: What kinds of nineteenth-century visual practices and technologies of seeing do these materials engage? How does scientific knowledge get translated into the visual and disseminated to the public? What are the commonalities and distinctions in mapping strategies between North and South America? How does the constitution of expeditionary lines reorder space and the natural landscape itself? The volume represents the first transnational and hemispheric analysis of nineteenth-century cartographic aesthetics, and features the multi-disciplinary perspective of historians, geographers, and art historians.

The fifth volume of The Oxford History of Historical Writing offers essays by leading scholars on the writing of history globally since 1945. Divided into two parts, part one selects and surveys theoretical and interdisciplinary approaches to history, and part two examines select national and regional historiographies throughout the world. It aims at once to provide an authoritative survey of the field and to provoke cross-cultural comparisons. This is chronologically the last of five volumes in a series that explores representations of the past across the globe from the beginning of writing to the present day.

Frontier Road uses the history of one road in southern Colombia—known locally as “the trampoline of death”—to demonstrate how state-building processes and practices have depended on the production and maintenance of frontiers as inclusive-exclusive zones, often through violent means. Considers the topic from multiple perspectives, including ethnography of the state, the dynamics of frontiers, and the nature of postcolonial power, space, and violence Draws attention to the political, environmental, and racial dynamics involved in the history and development of transport infrastructure in the Amazon region Examines the violence that has sustained the state through time and space, as well as the ways in which ordinary people have made sense of and contested that violence in everyday life Incorporates a broad range of engaging sources, such as missionary and government archives, travel writing, and oral histories
