Natural and cultural heritage of lagoon water bodies. The origin of tourism in Carhué, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Full text linkLa presente investigación aborda el estudio del patrimonio como el vínculo o relación que une a una
sociedad con el conjunto de recursos heredados. El caso de estudio se localiza en la laguna Epecuén, en Carhué,
provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar el proceso de activación
patrimonial a partir de las condiciones propias del lugar y de la valorización de los espacios patrimoniales
naturales y culturales. Se realizó un análisis explorando los procesos, actores, discursos vinculados a la
patrimonialización dada la valorización turística. Se analizaron las cualidades propias del agua de la laguna
a partir de trabajos de campo, análisis de precipitaciones y reconstrucción histórica. Se trabajó a partir de la
valorización simbólica y económica del patrimonio natural y cultural. Este territorio turístico es el producto de
la conjunción de las cualidades inherentes del lugar, valorizado por una sociedad que lo convierte en atractivo.This research addresses the study of heritage as a uniting social factor. It is a case study of the
Epecuén lagoon, in Carhué, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The article sets out to analyse the contextualised heri‐
tage activation process, based on an evaluation of the natural and cultural heritage resources by analysing
the processes, actors and discourses used in tourism. The characteristics of the water in the lagoon were
analysed from field work, rainfall analysis and historical reconstruction. We worked from a symbolic and
economic appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage. This tourist territory is the product of the con‐
junction of the inherent qualities of the place, and as valued by a society, making it attractive
Community demands, articulated responses. A management proposal for a local museum in Argentina
Full text linkEste trabajo presenta una experiencia de gestión patrimonial desarrollada en el Museo y
Archivo Histórico de Sierras Bayas frente a una demanda comunitaria. Con el fin de impulsar acciones
que revirtiesen el estado de deterioro que presentaba la institución fue necesaria la creación de una red
colaborativa entre diferentes actores sociales e institucionales. A partir de su conformación se elaboró un
plan de gestión que priorizó la identificación de los grupos de interés implicados a lo largo de su historia, el
relevamiento del estado general del mismo y la elaboración de un diagnóstico situacional, como base para
elaborar una propuesta de puesta en valor. Este museo fue creado por vecinos y vecinas de Sierras Bayas,
como espacio de fuerte vocación social, de ahí la importancia que adquiere su salvaguarda, en una localidad
que se autoreconoce con una identidad minera y que proyecta incluir su patrimonio industrial al turismo.This work presents an experience of heritage management in the Museum and Historical Archive of
Sierras Bayas as the result of community demand. In order to promote actions that would reverse the institu‐
tion’s state of deterioration, it was necessary to create a collaborative network between different social and insti‐
tutional actors. From its formation, a management plan was developed that prioritised the identification of the
stakeholders involved throughout its history, a survey of the general state of the heritage and the elaboration of a
situational diagnosis, as a basis for preparing a project toward enhancing its value. This museum was created by
residents of Sierras Bayas, as a space with a strong social vocation, hence the importance of its safeguarding, in
a town that recognises itself as a mining community and that plans to include its industrial heritage in tourism
“Bienvenid@ a America 2.0”: una lectura de lo residual en Super Sad True Love Story de Gary Shteyngart
Full text linkThis article proposes a reading of Gary Shteyngart’s celebrated novel Super Sad True Love
Story (2010), a text that straddles the dystopian and the satiric in its depiction of a quasi-
contemporary America, from the perspective of Waste Studies. Through the problematic
relationship between its two main characters, Shteyngart’s novel articulates the wide-ranging
effects of globalization on a generationally-ruptured American society, that in many ways
stands also for the First World at large. Drawing from sociologists, cultural critics, and phi-
losophers like Zygmunt Bauman, Ulrich Beck, Byung-Chul Han, John Scanlan and Susan
Sontag, who have theorized how individuals today are molded, challenged and threatened
by powerful extrinsic forces in the era of globalization, this article aims to explore how
Super Sad True Love Story showcases a range of mutually interrelated “modes of waste,”
resulting from the writer’s pushing to a satiric/dystopic extreme contemporary American

Tourism as a tool to build environmental governance in the Comarca Minera geopark
Full text linkEn este artículo analizamos la gobernanza ambiental, es decir, las herramientas, mecanismos y
programas que utilizaron el gobierno, la sociedad civil y un organismo internacional (UNESCO) para el control,
acceso y uso de los recursos naturales en el área denominada como Geoparque Comarca minera en el Estado de
Hidalgo, México. Mediante la realización de entrevistas y la consulta de materiales oficiales y una propuesta
conceptual sobre la gobernanza ambiental, analizamos cinco dimensiones (administrativo, coordinación, gestión
de recursos, participación social y desarrollo sustentable) de la relación entre el gobierno, las organizaciones
sociales, los actores locales y el medio natural en un programa específico que buscaba generar un ordenamiento
territorial, conservación y cambio de la relación entre el gobierno y la población local mediante un proyecto
turístico: la Ruta Arqueológica Minera.In this article we analyse environmental governance, that is, the tools, mechanisms and programmes
used by the government, civil society and an international organization (UNESCO) in the control, access to and
use of natural resources in the area called “Geoparque Comarca Minera”, in the State of Hidalgo, Mexico. By con‐
ducting interviews and consulting official materials and a conceptual proposal on environmental governance, we
analyse five dimensions (administration, coordination, resource management, social participation and sustain‐
able development) of the relationship between the government, social organisations, local actors and the natural
environment in a specific programme that seeks to generate territorial planning, conservation and change in
the relationship between the government and the local population through a tourism project: the Archaeological
Mining Route
