This book is number two in a series for Primates in Fragments. In this volume, ten years after the first http://www.springer.com/social+sciences/anthropology+%26+archaeology/book/978-0-306-47696-9, we continue to address issues regarding primates within a fractured landscape. There are seven sections based on specific categories of primates in fragments. In the Introductory section, authors discuss the issues surrounding primates in remnant habitats as well as encourage discussion about what we mean by fragmentation on a landscape scale. In the Long-Term and Regional Studies section, authors present information on changes that have occurred during longer studies as well as changes that have ...
This book explores how and why Mexico’s approach to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) implementation with the López Obrador administration is unsustainable and non-transformative, overshadowed by his vision of Mexico’s “Fourth Transformation”. Approached as a super mantra revolving around “Republican Austerity” and “First, the poor”, it provides original analysis of structural and conjunctural challenges facing Mexico as regards People-, Planet-, and Peace-centered development. The book reveals the promise “First, the poor” is inconsistent with data on Mexico’s poverty reduction (SDG1). Despite record-high spending on s...
Neotropical Biogeography: Regionalization and Evolution presents the most comprehensive single-source treatment of the Neotropical region derived from evolutionary biogeographic studies. The book provides a biogeographic regionalization based on distributional patterns of plant and animal taxa, discusses biotic relationships drawn from track and cladistic biogeographic analyses, and identifies cenocrons (subsets of taxa within biotas identified by their common origin and evolutionary history). It includes maps, area cladograms and vegetation profiles. The aim of this reference is to provide a biogeographic regionalization that can be used by graduate students, researchers and other professionals concerned with understanding and describing distributional patterns of plants and animals in the Neotropical region. It covers the 53 biogeographic provinces of the Neotropical region that are classified into the Antillean, Brazilian and Chacoan subregions, and the Mexican and South American transition zones.
La Agroecología y las Ciencias de la Complejidad surgieron en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. En tanto campos académicos en construcción y de frontera, ambas enfrentan los retos de continuar reflexionando sobre sus bases epistémicas, explorar enfoques metodológicos novedosos y robustecer sus corpus a través de casos de estudio de distinta naturaleza. Este libro representa un primer esfuerzo por integrar un conjunto de trabajos desde la experiencia mexicana que, de alguna manera u otra, buscan tejer puentes entre la Agroecología y las Ciencias de la Complejidad respecto a los retos señalados. El eje conductor que subyace a la obra es la tesis central de que bajo cualquier acepción que...
El INAH, a través del Proyecto de Investigación y Conservación del sitio arqueológico Oxtankah, dirigido por la arqueóloga Hortensia de Vega Nova, realizó investigaciones arqueológicas al sur del estado de Quintana Roo durante dos décadas. Valga la publicación de estos tres volúmenes para difundir los resultados obtenidos.
