Socio-Environmental Regimes and Local Visions
This book presents oral histories, collective dialogues, and analyses of rural and indigenous livelihoods facing global socio-environmental regime change in Latin America (LA). Since the late twentieth century, rural and indigenous producers in LA, including agriculturists, coffee-growers, as well as small-scale farmers/fishers, and others, have had to resist, cope with, or adapt to a range of neoliberal socio-environmental regimes that impact their territories and associated resources, including water, production systems and ultimately their cultural traditions. In response, rural producers are using local visions and innovation niches to decide what, when, and how to resist, cope with unce...

Patrimonio ambiental y conocimiento local
La noción patrimonial de los bienes naturales deviene de su permanencia generacional y pertenencia a un grupo social. El aprovechamiento de estos bienes se ha tejido a partir de la construcción de conocimientos particulares y procesos de adaptación para ajustarse a las reglas que imperan en un medio social dinámico y cambiante. Este libro conjuga las ideas y las experiencias de los actores sociales –investigadores, instituciones y pobladores– en diez textos de cuño multidisciplinar que abordan desde las perspectivas teórico-reflexiva, metodológica y empírica el patrimonio ambiental y el conocimiento local. Participan investigadores de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, la Universidad Autónoma de Chapingo, la Universidad de East Anglia, Reino Unido, y la Universidad Autónoma del Estado México.
Extractive Sector and Civil Society
4% of Latin America and the Caribbean’s GDP comes from the extractive sector. This figure is equivalent to the amount generated by agriculture in the same region. An effective engagement between governments, companies, and civil society is required to propel sustainable development. With this regional diagnosis of countries rich in natural resources like Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, and the Dominican Republic, the IDB seeks to shed light on best practices among stakeholders of the extractive sectors. It focuses in actions of information, dialogues, consultations, collaborations, and partnerships that are driving development in the region. From the findings of the diagnosis, 3 roadmaps were drafted, to guide the stakeholders in strengthening their engagement.
Habla del silencio
Este libro se distingue no sólo por conjuntar el trabajo de investigadores que, desde sus distintas disciplinas, han discutido la atención a los sordos usuarios de la Lengua de Señas Mexicana (LSM) sino también por contar con la colaboración de los miembros de esta comunidad. El lector encontrará aquí una obra que es producto de la madurez académica y profesional de sus autores, quienes presentan una visión crítica de la propuesta educativa bilingüe para este sector de la población, del derecho a la salud y de la participación ciudadana de los sordos señantes. Se pone de relieve el estudio de la adquisición de la LSM como primera lengua, los procesos cognitivos de los sordos s...
