Commons beyond public good: commons management
No full textCommon pool resources (CPRs) play crucial role in the welfare of rural household. In developing countries like India, CPRs act as development drivers and safety-net provider to Poor People (PP). To overcome ‘Tragedy of Commons’ and sustainable conservation of commons, cooperation is needed to conserve CPRs due to its features: non excludability and substractability of the yield. But, community institution (rural households or community) sometimes faces challenges to conserve economically when we consider two additional characteristics of commons such as mobility and stationary. We have carried out field study on 419 CPR dependent households to examine CPR settings of canal irrigation, community forestry and tank irrigation. We found: types, nature and degree of conflicts differ between stock and mobile resources, users follow stock and mobile resource specific institutional arrangement and conflicts are resolved by adopting resource specific methods. The nature, type and degree of conflicts are different between villages and districts. We also developed categorizations of CPRs helpful to the resources users for understanding and anticipating strategies to confront and solve commons conflicts
Urban Lake Scenario and Development Possibilities- A case of Surat
Full text linkUrban water bodies are an inherent part of Indian culture. They store rainwater and ensure supply for domestic use and for agriculture. They help in recharging groundwater. They serve as flood cushions. They also act as city level open space and recreational area for the city. They help in maintaining the micro-climate of the area. Due to extensive urbanization and industrialization, urban land use changed in many cities and resulted in lost water bodies. Cities are expanding and population is becoming urbanised with a greater rate. It’s challenging the natural eco system of cities as a result pockets in the form of green parks, lakes etc. are disappearing. Same is the case of Surat city, Gujarat. Despite of having a series of natural urban lakes, these blue marks are gradually disappearing from the map of Surat. The city consisted total of 352 lakes which is now limited to only 62 lakes (refer figure 1). This number may decrease further if enough actions and interventions are not taken by the authorities, stakeholders and Surat city people.
This paper discusses about the current condition of urban lakes in Surat city and concerns regarding urban lakes disappearance and dire need of water body presence, its importance in the urban fabric. The case of Surat gives us insights about how multiple components like government initiatives, institutional arrangements, stakeholder participation, lakefront design can foster and improve the face of urban lake, while providing city the breathing space it needs. This paper also looks upon the dynamics of collaboration of public, private and non-governmental resources concerning urban lake development. The restoration and lake development are done through designing, improving and managing these urban lakes. This study will foster understanding of varied benefits these spaces generate that carve out the pathways/alternative for governance and management of urban lakes
GIS as an effective tool in waste management-a case study of Allahabad city India.
Full text linkEnvironmental management is a broad area which comes into the domain of multidisciplinary fields including Architecture and Planning. It requires vast amounts of data collection, data retrieval and its analysis. GIS can fulfill this purpose with its multi-analytical and spatial capabilities. It can be used for analysis and study of various aspects of waste management including site selection for municipal solid waste landfills. GIS facilitates the storage of vast amounts of data in the form of raster data and vector data which can serve an important and efficient method for depicting various aspects of waste management.The current study shows the application of GIS spatial analytical tools in finding landfill sites for Allahabad City for Municipal Solid Waste
Urban scenario in India is deprecating human sensation and perception of neuro architecture: time to develop urban greens to heal
Full text linkThe National Commission on Population in India foresees that in the next 15 years, more than 35% of Indians will live in urban areas. In 2021, by this time, air, water pollution, and water supply, city drainage has reached beyond the implied limit. Revised development draft 2034 is showing additional spaces for schools, hospitals, crematoriums, ceremony halls, roads, and related connectivity. This is encroaching on the remaining land of green areas and open plots. Urbanism has no choice for developing countries. Development in technology is often associated with adverse costs like social defragmentation, environmental ruins, pollution, and waste management disorder. Thoughtful application is constructive if done rightly from its micro-level and implemented by investigation, it can encourage health, wellness, and efficiency.
During the pandemic, research studies are explaining mental sickness which is faced by citizens while living alone, isolated within four vertical planes. Neuro-architecture can be defined as built spaces designed with neuroscience principles, which establishes spaces that boost memory, develop thinking abilities, escape anxiety, and encourage the brain. Developing spaces for better mental health plays a key role in rising happiness while spending life in urban cities. Sensation and perception are two isolated progressions that are meticulously linked. The sensation is a response to the outer sphere attained by human sensory physical receptors, and perception is the method by which the brain picks, arranges, and understands these sensations. In other words, the senses are the functional basis of awareness. Urban life could be better by improving the ability of sensory receptors by providing more, bigger, enormous green spaces around
¿Quién puede participar? Un análisis documental acerca de la participación de la infancia en cuidados alternativos
Full text linkChild participation in protection systems is a fundamental right that entails multiple psychosocial benefits for children and adolescents. However, its correct implementation in protection systems is a challenge to be addressed. In Chile, research on child participation, particularly in the national child protection system (SENAME), is scarce. This study seeks to explore, under the model of meaningful participation, how child participation is considered in alternative care programs and their regulatory and legal frameworks, through a thematic documentary analysis. The findings point to a low level of definition of the concept participation in technical and legal regulations, and a tendency to assign children and adolescents to a passive role, leaving adults to define the moments and forms of participation. Some factors,such as the age of the child, which play a central role in making participation possible are analysed. In conclusion, meaningful participation is not guaranteed in its three dimensions (being informed, listened to and considered in decision-making) throughout the process, being relegated to isolated and variable instances depending on the different programs.La participación infantil en los sistemas de protección es un derecho fundamental que implica múltiples beneficios psicosociales para los niños, niñas y adolescentes (NNA). No obstante, su correcta implementación en los sistemas proteccionales es un desafío a tratar. En Chile, la investigación en participación infantil, y en específico en el sistema de protección infantil nacional, SENAME, es escasa. Este estudio busca explorar de qué manera la participación infantil significativa del NNA es considerada en programas de cuidados alternativos de SENAME y sus marcos normativos y legales, a través de un análisis temático documental. Los hallazgos apuntan a un bajo nivel de definición del concepto de participación en normativas técnicas y legales, y una tendencia a asignar a los NNA a un rol pasivo, donde son los funcionarios de cada programa quienes tienen mayor propositividad a la hora de definir los momentos y formas de participación. Factores como la edad del NNA parecen tomar un rol central a la hora de permitir una participación más independiente. La participación significativa no se garantiza en sus tres dimensiones a lo largo del proceso, y éstas se presentan de manera irregular
Claves del proceso constituyente chileno (2019-2022), a la luz de la participación política de los pueblos indígenas
Full text linkThis paper examines the Chilean constituent process as it relatesto the demands for recognition made by Chile’s indigenous peoples. First, wesynthesize the theoretical guidelines of what we have called a democratic, pluralistic and intercultural horizon. Second, we postulate a basic condition for the effectiveness of the rights recognized to indigenous peoples. Methodologically, among other aspects, this premises are based on comparison in contrast. Third, we formulate some critical reflections or "intercultural keys" in relation to the New Constitution Project.Este trabajo revisa el caso del proceso constituyente chileno (2019-2022), en relación con las demandas de reconocimiento de los pueblos indígenas en este país. Para ello, primero, sintetizamos los lineamientos teóricos del que hemos llamado un horizonte democrático, pluralista e intercultural. Segundo, postulamos un conjunto de condiciones basales para la efectividad del reconocimiento de los derechos a los pueblos indígenas que, metodológicamente, entre otros aspectos, se basan en la comparación en contraste. Tercero, formulamos algunas reflexiones críticas o “claves interculturales” con relación al Proyecto de Nueva Constitución
The new onset of health complications in patient after COVID-19 recovery.: Health Complications in Patient after COVID-19
No full textGlobal pandemic coronavirus caused by COVID 19 appears to cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Until now, acute respiratory problems, particularly in critically ill patients, have been the primary concern of clinical communication. Several case studies and limited series have indicated that COVID-19 significantly affects the respiratory and cardiovascular processes. Older individuals are at increased risk of serious illness due to COVID-19, and frequency increases with age. Many with ongoing medical conditions can also have a greater risk of severe illness. Various organs that may induce infection are the lungs, skin, kidneys, liver, heart and GI tract. Thus, the risk of severe illness due to COVID-19 rises in patients with comorbidities linked to these organs. Patients healed after COVID-19 should now be more vigilant in their daily health check-up and surveillance. The present analysis showed a health complication following the recovery of COVID-19 that was required to avoid chronic disease, which would again cause mortality and morbidity in patients.
Keywords – covid-19 recovered, secondary illness, health problems of covid-19
La categoría de lebenswelt en Jürgen Habermas y sus dificultades ante el diálogo social intercultural.
Full text linkSe observa en el continente latinoamericano una recepción del pensamiento habermasiano en la dirección de querer pensar desde él problemas de integración social inherentes a las problemáticas de desigualdad social y política de nuestros pueblos. Nuestra convicción es que a partir del problematismo de la categoría de Lebenswelt, entre otras, dicha empresa no es factible pues hemos podido mostrar importantes exclusiones categoriales en el núcleo duro (heurística negativa) de la teoría de acción comunicativa de Habermas. Esta es la tesis que pretendemos defender en este artículo
La importancia de la mediería agrícola como mecanismo de cooperación al interior de la economía mapuche rural contemporánea en el contexto de la comunidad Valentín Marín de Nueva Imperial, IX Región, Chile
Full text linkEn el siguiente artículo se presentan los resultados de una investigación social cualitativa sobre el rol de la mediería agrícola en la economía mapuche rural actual en el contexto de la comunidad Valentín Marín de la comuna de Nueva Imperial. Este artículo comienza identificando desde el punto de vista del actor local, los principales condicionamientos económicos y sociales que presentan las economías mapuches en el sector. Dichos factores inciden para la emergencia de la cooperación en mediería. En segundo lugar se busca determinar la importancia de los factores socioculturales en la organización de estas formas de producción agrícola, destacando el rol de la confianza como mecanismo cultural. En tercer lugar se caracterizan las formas de organizar la producción en base a la mediería, considerando producción de cereales, lupino y papas, los cultivos más desarrollados en la comunidad. En cuarto lugar se aborda la repercusión de esta forma de trabajo al interior de la economía familiar local, destacando su multifuncionalidad. En la discusión, a la luz de los resultados de este trabajo, se problematizan algunos de los principales supuestos y planteamientos que han elaborado distintos autores para comprender esta forma de trabajo agrícola. Se destaca el carácter instrumental de la mediería como mecanismo que beneficia a ambos actores del contrato, destacando la heterogeneidad de formas de organizar la mediería. Una de las conclusiones, es que quizás esta forma de trabajo cooperativo se haya intensificado en el sector estudiado, por la emergencia de nuevos condicionamientos económicos en las economías mapuche
How to Achieve the Common Good: Analysis of Discrimination and Violence Based on Gender Relations as Experienced by Male/Female Students at Universidad Nacional de San Martín, Argentina
Full text linkDesde la creación del Programa contra la violencia de género de la Universidad Nacional de San Martín, en el año 2013, casos de violencia simbólica –como chistes, burlas, sarcasmos en pasillo, aulas y facultades –han sido denunciados por diferentes miembros de la comunidad académica. El objetivo de este artículo es describir y analizar, desde un abordaje cualitativo y cuantitativo, las causas y efectos de la violencia de género de tipo simbólica que vivencian las y los estudiantes de la Universidad Nacional de San Martín, Argentina. Concluimos que la violencia simbólica es un tipo de violencia frecuente porque está naturalizada por los distintos actores de la comunidad universitaria. La mayoría de la violencia simbólica es infringida por los estudiantes varones contra las estudiantes mujeres. Sin embargo, los profesores varones y no docentes también practican violencias simbólicas y acoso a través de redes sociales, que se interseccionan con abusos de poder
