Now in its second edition, the Companion is fully revised to reflect major research developments and new trajectories within the field. Updated chapters that present new evidence for longstanding debates and innovative applications of environmental history are accompanied by six entirely new chapters on India, China, Africa, early modern cities, global environmental governance, and European environmentalism. Offering fresh insights into environmental thought, culture, policy, and politics, A Companion to Global Environmental History, Second Edition, is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students and an invaluable reference for scholars, researchers, and environmental historians. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: The Conquest of the Desert Carolyne R. Larson, 2020-12-15 Winner of the 2021 Thomas McGann Book Prize from the Rocky Mountain Council for Latin American Studies For more than one hundred years, the Conquest of the Desert (1878-1885) has marked Argentina's historical passage between eras, standing at the gateway to the nation's Golden Age of progress, modernity, and--most contentiously--national whiteness and the invisibilization of Indigenous peoples. This traditional narrative has deeply influenced the ways in which many Argentines understand their nation's history, its laws and policies, and its cultural heritage. As such, the Conquest has shaped debates about the role of Indigenous peoples within Argentina in the past and present. The Conquest of the Desert brings together scholars from across disciplines to offer an interdisciplinary examination of the Conquest and its legacies. This collection explores issues of settler colonialism, Indigenous-state relations, genocide, borderlands, and Indigenous cultures and land rights through essays that reexamine one of Argentina's most important historical periods. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Enemy in the Blood Eric D. Carter, 2012-01-06 Enemy in the Blood: Malaria, Environment, and Development in Argentina examines the dramatic yet mostly forgotten history of malaria control in northwest Argentina. Carter traces the evolution of malaria science and policy in Argentina from the disease’s emergence as a social problem in the 1890s to its effective eradication by 1950. Malaria-control proponents saw the campaign as part of a larger project of constructing a modern identity for Argentina. Insofar as development meant building a more productive, rational, and hygienic society, the perceptions of a culturally backwards and disease-ridden interior prevented Argentina from joining the ranks of “modern” nations. The path to eradication, however, was not easy due to complicated public health politics, inappropriate application of foreign malaria control strategies, and a habitual misreading of the distinctive ecology of malaria in the northwest, especially the unique characteristics of the local mosquito vector. Homegrown scientific expertise, a populist public health agenda, and an infusion of new technologies eventually brought a rapid end to malaria’s scourge, if not the cure for regional underdevelopment. Enemy in the Blood sheds light on the often neglected history of northwest Argentina’s interior, adds to critical perspectives on the history of development and public health in modern Latin America, and demonstrates the merits of integrative socialenvironmental research. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: What is Environmental History? Johnson Donald Hughes, 2006-12-08 What is environmental history? It is a kind of history that seeks understanding of human beings as they have lived, worked and thought in relationship to the rest of nature through the changes brought by time. In this seminal student textbook, J. Donald Hughes provides a masterful overview of the thinkers, topics and perspectives that have come to constitute the exciting discipline that is environmental history. He does so on a global scale, drawing together disparate trends from a rich variety of countries into a unified whole, illuminating trends and key themes in the process. Those already familiar with the discipline will find themselves invited to think about the subject in a new way. Students and scholars new to environmental history will find the book both an indispensable guide and a rich source of inspiration for future work |
| brailovsky memoria verde: The Oxford History of Historical Writing Axel Schneider, Daniel Woolf, 2011-05-05 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. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: Geopolitics, Culture, and the Scientific Imaginary in Latin America María del Pilar Blanco, Joanna Page, 2023-03-28 Highlighting the relationship among science, politics, and culture in Latin American history Challenging the common view that Latin America has lagged behind Europe and North America in the global history of science, this volume reveals that the region has long been a center for scientific innovation and imagination. It highlights the important relationship among science, politics, and culture in Latin American history. Scholars from a variety of fields including literature, sociology, and geography bring to light many of the cultural exchanges that have produced and spread scientific knowledge from the early colonial period to the present day. Among many topics, these essays describe ideas on health and anatomy in a medical text from sixteenth-century Mexico, how fossil discoveries in Patagonia inspired new interpretations of the South American landscape, and how Argentinian physicist Rolando García influenced climate change research and the field of epistemology. Through its interdisciplinary approach, Geopolitics, Culture, and the Scientific Imaginary in Latin America shows that such scientific advancements fueled a series of visionary utopian projects throughout the region, as countries grappling with the legacy of colonialism sought to modernize and to build national and regional identities. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: A Carceral Ecology Ryan C. Edwards, 2021-12-28 Closer to Antarctica than to Buenos Aires, the port town of Ushuaia, Argentina is home to a national park as well as a museum that is housed in the world’s southernmost prison. Ushuaia’s radial panopticon operated as an experimental hybrid penal colony and penitentiary from 1902 to 1947, designed to revolutionize modern prisons globally. A Carceral Ecology offers the first comprehensive study of this notorious prison and its afterlife, documenting how the Patagonian frontier and timber economy became central to ideas about labor, rehabilitation, and resource management. Mining the records of penologists, naturalists, and inmates, Ryan C. Edwards shows how discipline was tied to forest management, but also how inmates gained situated geographical knowledge and reframed debates on the regeneration of the land and the self. Bringing a new imperative to global prison studies, Edwards asks us to rethink the role of the environment in carceral practices as well as the impact of incarceration on the natural world. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: The Environment and World History Edmund Burke III, Kenneth Pomeranz, 2009-04-08 Since around 1500 C.E., humans have shaped the global environment in ways that were previously unimaginable. Bringing together leading environmental historians and world historians, this book offers an overview of global environmental history throughout this remarkable 500-year period. In eleven essays, the contributors examine the connections between environmental change and other major topics of early modern and modern world history: population growth, commercialization, imperialism, industrialization, the fossil fuel revolution, and more. Rather than attributing environmental change largely to European science, technology, and capitalism, the essays illuminate a series of culturally distinctive, yet often parallel developments arising in many parts of the world, leading to intensified exploitation of land and water. The wide range of regional studies—including some in Russia, China, the Middle East, India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Southern Africa, and Western Europe—together with the book's broader thematic essays makes The Environment and World History ideal for courses that seek to incorporate the environment and environmental change more fully into a truly integrative understanding of world history. CONTRIBUTORS: Michael Adas, William Beinart, Edmund Burke III, Mark Cioc, Kenneth Pomeranz, Mahesh Rangarajan, John F. Richards, Lise Sedrez, Douglas R. Weiner |
| brailovsky memoria verde: Entranced Earth Jens Andermann, 2023-05-15 A sweeping analysis of the lasting effects of neocolonial extractivism in Latin American aesthetic modernity from 1920 to the present Looking to the extractive frontier as a focal point of Latin American art, literature, music, and film, Jens Andermann asks what emerges at the other end of landscape. Art in the Global South has long represented and interrogated “insurgent nature”—organic and inorganic matter, human and nonhuman life, thrown into turmoil. In Entranced Earth: Art, Extractivism, and the End of Landscape, Andermann traces the impact of despaisamiento—world-destroying un-landscaping—throughout the Latin American modernist archive. At the same time, he explores innovative, resilient modes of allyship forged between diverse actors through their shared experiences of destruction. From the literary regionalism of the 1930s to contemporary bio art, from modernist garden architecture to representations of migration and displacement in sound art and film, Entranced Earth tracks the crisis of landscape and environmental exhaustion beyond despair toward speculative, experimental forms of survival. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: Facing An Unequal World Raquel Sosa Elizaga, 2018-02-26 Raquel Sosa Elízaga has assembled an incredibly complete set of analyses of inequality written by a range of scholars about a wide range of issues. Incomparable essential reading. - Immanuel Wallerstein, Senior Research Scientist, Sociology, Yale University Over recent decades, living conditions in poorer countries have deteriorated, leaving us faced with the present phenomenon of global inequality. Arguably the biggest challenge of the 21st Century is the confrontation and eventual elimination of the processes of structural inequality that affect these millions of human beings today. Facing an Unequal World tackles and critically examines key issues and challenges for global sociology across these interrelated themes: The dimensions of inequality and the configurations of structural inequalities and structures of power Conceptions of justice in different historical and cultural traditions Conflicts on environmental justice and sustainable futures The social injuries of inequality, and overcoming inequalities Written by a selection of international key sociologists and academics, this is a valuable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and researchers in sociology alike. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: A Living Past John Soluri, Claudia Leal, José Augusto Pádua, 2018-02-19 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. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: Argentina and the United States David M. K. Sheinin, 2010-06-02 In the first English-language survey of Argentine-U.S. relations to appear in more than a decade, David M. K. Sheinin challenges the accepted view that confrontation has been the characteristic state of affairs between the two countries. Sheinin draws on both Spanish- and English-language sources in the United States, Argentina, Canada, and Great Britain to provide a broad perspective on the two centuries of shared U.S.-Argentine history with fresh focus in particular on cultural ties, nuclear politics in the cold war era, the politics of human rights, and Argentina's exit in 1991 from the nonaligned movement. From the perspectives of both countries, Sheinin discusses such topics as Pan-Americanism, petroleum, communism and fascism, and foreign debt. Although the general trajectory of the two countries' relationship has been one of cooperative interaction based on generally strong and improving commercial and financial ties, shared strategic interests, and vital cultural contacts, Sheinin also emphasizes episodes of strained ties. These include the Cuban Revolution, the Dirty War of the late 1970s and early 1980s, and the Falklands/Malvinas War. In his epilogue, Sheinin examines Argentina's monetary crash of December 2001, when the United States-in a major policy shift-refused to come to Argentina's rescue. |
| brailovsky memoria verde: A History of Argentina Ezequiel Adamovsky, 2024-01-05 In A History of Argentina, originally published in Spanish in 2020, Ezequiel Adamovsky presents over five hundred years of Argentine economic, political, social, and cultural history. Adamovsky highlights the experiences of women, Indigenous communities, and other groups that have traditionally been left out of the historical archive. He focuses on harmful aspects of Spanish colonization such as gender subjugation, the violence enacted in the name of the Catholic Church, the role of the economy as it shifted from the encomienda system into modern industrialization, and the devastating effects of slavery, violence, and disease brought to the region by Spanish colonizers. Adamovsky also discusses Argentina’s independence and territorial consolidation, the first democratic elections in 1916, military coups, Peronism, democratization and the neoliberal reforms of the 1980s, and many other facets of Argentine life up to the 2019 presidential election. Concise, accessible, and comprehensive, A History of Argentina is an essential guide to this nation. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Seeds of Power Amalia Leguizamón, 2020-09-11 In 1996 Argentina adopted genetically modified (GM) soybeans as a central part of its national development strategy. Today, Argentina is the third largest global grower and exporter of GM crops. Its soybeans—which have been modified to tolerate being sprayed with herbicides—now cover half of the country's arable land and represent a third of its total exports. While soy has brought about modernization and economic growth, it has also created tremendous social and ecological harm: rural displacement, concentration of landownership, food insecurity, deforestation, violence, and the negative health effects of toxic agrochemical exposure. In Seeds of Power Amalia Leguizamón explores why Argentines largely support GM soy despite the widespread damage it creates. She reveals how agribusiness, the state, and their allies in the media and sciences deploy narratives of economic redistribution, scientific expertise, and national identity as a way to elicit compliance among the country’s most vulnerable rural residents. In this way, Leguizamón demonstrates that GM soy operates as a tool of power to obtain consent, to legitimate injustice, and to quell potential dissent in the face of environmental and social violence. |

Antonio Carbone zeigt dies exemplarisch am Beispiel von Buenos Aires, wo sich – an einem Wendepunkt der Geschichte des modernen Argentinien und der globalen Stadtgeschichte – nach dramatischen Cholera- und Gelbfieberepidemien eine breite Diskussion um die »Krise des Urbanen« entzündete, die zu einer partiellen Umgestaltung der Stadt führte. In seiner Kultur-, Sozial-, Global- und Umweltgeschichte nimmt er besonders drei urbane Brennpunkte in den Blick: die industriellen Schlachthöfe, die von Migrant_innen bewohnten Mietshäuser und einen Park im Stadtteil Palermo. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: The Global Land Grab Annelies Zoomers, Mayke Kaag, 2014-02-13 The last two years have seen a huge amount of academic, policy-making and media interest in the increasingly contentious issue of land grabbing - the large-scale acquisition of land in the global South. It is a phenomenon against which locals seem defenceless, and one about which multilateral organizations, such as the World Bank, as well as civil-society organizations and action NGOs have become increasingly vocal. This in-depth and empirically diverse volume - taking in case studies from across Africa, Asia and Latin America - takes a step back from the hype to explore a number of key questions: Does the 'global land grab' actually exist? If so, what is new about it? And what, beyond the immediately visible dynamics and practices, are the real problems? A comprehensive and much-needed intervention on one of the most hotly contested but little-understood issues facing countries of the South today. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Environmental History in the Making Estelita Vaz, Cristina Joanaz de Melo, Lígia M. Costa Pinto, 2016-10-13 This book is the product of the 2nd World Conference on Environmental History, held in Guimarães, Portugal, in 2014. It gathers works by authors from the five continents, addressing concerns raised by past events so as to provide information to help manage the present and the future. It reveals how our cultural background and examples of past territorial intervention can help to combat political and cultural limitations through the common language of environmental benefits without disguising harmful past human interventions. Considering that political ideologies such as socialism and capitalism, as well as religion, fail to offer global paradigms for common ground, an environmentally positive discourse instead of an ecological determinism might serve as an umbrella common language to overcome blocking factors, real or invented, and avoid repeating ecological loss. Therefore, agency, environmental speech and historical research are urgently needed in order to sustain environmental paradigms and overcome political, cultural an economic interests in the public arena. This book intertwines reflections on our bonds with landscapes, processes of natural and scientific transfer across the globe, the changing of ecosystems, the way in which scientific knowledge has historically both accelerated destruction and allowed a better distribution of vital resources or as it, in today’s world, can offer alternatives that avoid harming those same vital natural resources: water, soil and air. In addition, it shows the relevance of cultural factors both in the taming of nature in favor of human comfort and in the role of the environment matters in the forging of cultural identities, which cannot be detached from technical intervention in the world. In short, the book firstly studies the past, approaching it as a data set of how the environment has shaped culture, secondly seeks to understand the present, and thirdly assesses future perspectives: what to keep, what to change, and what to dream anew, considering that conventional solutions have not sufficed to protect life on our planet. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Global Change and River Ecosystems - Implications for Structure, Function and Ecosystem Services R. Jan Stevenson, Sergi Sabater, 2015-03-21 Rivers around the world are threatened by changes in land use, climate, hydrologic cycles, and biodiversity. Global changes in rivers include, but are not restricted to water flow interruptions, temperature increases, loss of hydrological connectivity, altered water residence times, changes in nutrient loads, increasing arrival of new chemicals, simplification of the physical structure of the systems, occurrence of invasive species, and biodiversity losses. All of them affect the structure and functioning of the river ecosystem, and thereby, their ecosystem services. Understanding the responses of river ecosystems and their services to global change is essential for protecting human well being in all corners of the planet. Rivers provide critical benefits by providing food from fisheries and irrigation, regulating biogeochemical balances, and enriching our aesthetic and cultural experience. Predicting responses of rivers to global change is challenged by the complexity of interactions among these man-made drivers across a mosaic of natural hydrogeomorphic and climatic settings. This book explores the broad range of determinants defining global change and their effects on river ecosystems. Authors have provided thoughtful and insightful treatments of specific topics that relate to the broader theme of global change regulation of river ecosystems. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Sementes de poder Amalia Leguizamón, 2023-08-22 Amalia Leguizamón escreveu este livro para entender por que os argentinos não se rebelam contra o uso de agrotóxicos em áreas rurais localizadas praticamente no quintal de casa. E conseguiu, depois de percorrer os Pampas e adentrar a realidade das gentes que vivem às voltas com a monocultura de soja transgênica resistente ao glifosato. Desse mergulho no coração agrário de um dos maiores exportadores mundiais de grãos, Amalia voltou com uma preciosa interpretação daquilo que denomina sinergias do poder, ou seja, o conjunto de fatores que fazem com que a Argentina abrace efusivamente a sojicultura como modelo de desenvolvimento. Assim, Sementes de poder pode ser um valioso ponto de partida para compreender como e por que o extrativismo dominou a paisagem latino-americana. Como é possível, em tempos de crise climática e crescente desigualdade socioeconômica, criar consensos em torno de atividades que aceleram o colapso ambiental e a concentração de renda? Para responder à pergunta, a autora revisita a fundação nacional argentina e os ideais da chamada Geração de 1837, explicando como a elite da época idealizou o país como celeiro do mundo, designou os Pampas para cumprir a missão, varreu os povos indígenas e repovoou o território com imigrantes europeus. Essa raiz branca e excludente perpetuou-se ao longo das décadas, enquanto a Argentina se transformava em potência rural e o imaginário nacional adotava a ideia de que todos vivemos do campo. Hoje, esse slogan é repetido como resposta à menor crítica ao agronegócio — e até mesmo aos agrotóxicos. Mas raramente palavras contrárias à soja transgênica são verbalizadas nas regiões produtoras, e, quando a autora as ouviu, vieram apenas da boca de mulheres: algumas cercadas de receio, como as esposas de agricultores que somente protegidas pela intimidade da cozinha ousaram revelar suas preocupações com os efeitos do glifosato sobre a saúde dos filhos; outras corajosa e abertamente, como as Mães de Ituzaingó, que lutam contra o uso de defensivos agrícolas que adoecem e matam a vizinhança. Analisando em detalhes a realidade de pessoas localizadas no que chama de níveis macro, médio e micro da política econômica do extrativismo da soja na Argentina, Leguizamón conseguiu demonstrar as divisões de gênero, raça e classe do agronegócio nos Pampas. A leitura de Sementes de poder certamente será de grande proveito para quem anseia compreender e barrar o avanço dessa atividade sobre florestas e territórios tradicionais, processo que se mostra irrefreável apesar do rastro de desigualdades, morte e destruição que deixa em seu trajeto rumo à exportação. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: El fracaso del consenso de Washington David Llistar, 2003 La puerta abierta al análisis del resultado de la aplicación del Consenso de Washington frente a la claridad del caso, sumado al relevante papel que desempeñaron las empresas españolas en Argentina, motivaron al Observatorio de la Deuda en la Globalización (ODG) emprender la tarea de la presente compilación. En ella se reúnen reflexiones sobre la naturaleza, aplicación e impacto de la disciplina neoliberal en el país, que abordan el tema desde diferentes enfoques para converger en una conclusión unánime: su evidente fracaso. La exigencia popular apuntaba a todos los responsables del desastre neoliberal: los capitales locales y extranjeros más concentrados, las FFAA, la clase gobernante local, el FMI y los gobiernos de los países del Norte con intereses en el país, entre ellos, el Estado español. Durante la década de 1990, Argentina ha sido un alumno ejemplar a la hora de aplicar los preceptos del Consenso de Washington. Ejemplar ha sido también el derrumbamiento de la sociedad argentina producto de ese alineamiento irrestricto en todos los órdenes de la vida pública y privada. Las dramáticas consecuencias, producto de diez años de negocios sucios, corrupción y especulación, explotaron en diciembre del 2001 en una oleada de protestas sociales autoconvocadas bajo un mismo lema: ¡Qué se vayan todos! |
| brailovsky memoria verde: Proyectos de educación ambiental: la utopía en la escuela Antonio Elio Brailovsky, 2023-07-01 La Educación Ambiental no es una acumulación de datos. No se agota en lograr que los alumnos manejen determinados conocimientos. Su objetivo es la construcción de un compromiso ciudadano. Por eso no puede ser encerrada exclusivamente en las Ciencias Naturales. Estas disciplinas pueden explicarnos qué ocurre con los seres vivos de un río si alguien arroja un tóxico, pero sólo a través de las Ciencias Sociales podemos comprender por qué algunas sociedades toleran esas conductas. Así, el vínculo con el ambiente es histórico y cada cultura genera el suyo. Pero además, la Educación Ambiental integra ciencias con sentimientos. Este libro expresa la actitud apasionada de quien cree que el principal tema de nuestro tiempo es el de la supervivencia de nuestra especie en condiciones dignas. Lo que sólo puede lograrse con ciudadanos dispuestos a actuar en ese sentido. Su autor piensa que en temas ambientales no se puede seguir siendo indiferentes. A lo largo de esta obra se desarrollan diversas iniciativas y proyectos de aula que promueven la acción ciudadana de alumnos, docentes y actores comunitarios. |

| brailovsky memoria verde: Un pasado vivo Varios Autores, 2017-07-01 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. |
