Antropología pública de la conservación
Desde el ámbito de la antropología de la conservación, se analizan los procesos de declaración, desarrollo y gestión de las áreas protegidas y, en concreto, mediante una selección de casos de estudio, los de los parques naturales. Con una mirada crítica, holística y comparativa, se examinan las políticas conservacionistas orientadas a la planificación, reordenación y participación en espacios socioecosistémicos con dinámicas socioculturales complejas. Los distintos capítulos se articulan transversalmente en torno a la reivindicación de la antropología pública de la conservación y comparten un objetivo central: reflexionar sobre las áreas protegidas con una voluntad transformadora y diseñar la implementación de acciones efectivas para su conservación.
Llàgrimes vora mar
Son malos tiempos para la memoria. Son malos tiempos también para el Cabanyal, que vive sitiado por una sentencia de muerte que lo hace ir desvaneciéndose cada día que pasa ante la indiferencia de la clase política. Y en medio de estos tiempos convulsos, hemos querido recuperar las historias de vida de sus habitantes, que vieron truncada su niñez y juventud por la Guerra Civil, la posguerra y la riada de 1957. Este libro se estructura alrededor de estos tres ejes temporales, con testigos directas de los protagonistas. Sus evocaciones, resultado de un esfuerzo y sobreesfuerzo de memoria, con lagunas, vacíos y episodios casi borrados, nos sirven de puente entre el pasado y el presente. El resultado del trabajo colectivo nos arrecia en el convencimiento que estas experiencias acontecen un recurso didáctico muy valioso para las prácticas docentes.

The Summer Without Men
FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WHAT I LOVED 'An astoundingly joyful read . . . a book that shines with intellectual curiosity and emotional integrity' Guardian 'By turns funny, moving and erudite, playfully reminding us of a contemporary Jane Austen' Daily Mail After Mia Fredricksen's husband of thirty years asks for a pause - so he can indulge his infatuation with a young French colleague - she cracks up (briefly), rages (deeply), then decamps to her prairie childhood home. There, gradually, she is drawn into the lives of those around her: her mother's circle of feisty widows; the young woman next door; and the diabolical teenage girls in her poetry class. By the end of the ...
Memories of the Future
FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WHAT I LOVED 'Few contemporary writers are as satisfying and stimulating to read as Siri Hustvedt' Washington Post 'A 21st-century Virginia Woolf' Literary Review A provocative, wildly funny, intellectually rigorous and engrossing novel, punctuated by Siri Hustvedt's own illustrations - a tour de force by one of America's most acclaimed and beloved writers. Fresh from Minnesota and hungry for all New York has to offer, twenty-three-year-old S.H. embarks on a year that proves both exhilarating and frightening - from bruising encounters with men to the increasingly ominous monologues of the woman next door. Forty years on, those pivotal months com...
Doing Business 2010
The seventh in a series of annual reports investigating the regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it, 'Doing Business' presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights that can be compared across 183 economies--from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe--and over time.

This book is a sequel to Rural development : putting the last first (AL. 1719, BRN 32006). It explores methods and approaches of participatory rural appraisal (PRA), which, because of its wide application, should, according to the author, be changed to participatory learning and action (PLA).
