    Naturaleza, espacio y sociedad : notas acerca de Uneven Development de Neil Smith

    Le thème de la nature a été relegué au deuxième plan dans la plupart des études de géographie marxiste. Le livre de Neil Smith -Uneven Development- essaye de couvrir cette lacune théorique et a pour objectif d'intégrer géographie et pratique, nature et société, en une théorie marxiste du développement inégal. Les théories de la dependence et du centre-périphérie n'expliquent pas la geographie du développement inégal a des échelles plus petites que la planetaire, comme résultat d'une conceptualisation erronée des rélations entre espace et société, et à un niveau plus général entre nature et société. L'auteur nous offre una interpretation alternative, de ces rélations fondées sur le concept de production comme Clement unificateur, c'est a dire, le capital «produitn» nature et il «produit» espace aussi.Nature has been relegated to a second ground in the large bulk of recent studies that fall into Marxist geography. The book by Neil Smith -Uneven Development- tries to cover that theoretical lagoon and aims at integrating geography and political practice, nature and space, in a Marxist theory -of uneven development. Dependence and centre-periphery theories never explain the geography of uneven development at a scale lower than the globe, due to an erroneous conceptualisation of the relationships between space and society, and at more general level, between nature and society. The author offers an alternative interpretation of those relationships based on the concepts of production as a unifying element, that is, capital «produces» nature as it «produces», space as well

    Learning for liberation : values, actions and structures for social transformation through Aboriginal communities

    No full text
    Negative perceptions of being Aboriginal persist and policies such as self-determination are generally perceived to have failed despite many texts to the contrary. This thesis examines assumptions and presuppositions within contemporary writings and practices, determining in the process, conditions seeming necessary for decolonising ways of living and research. Much closer attention is required not only to developing better understandings, but especially to articulating explanations via the reality of deep structures, their powers and causal mechanisms underpinning social life generally and in particular, the lived experience of oppressed communities. Neo-Nietzscheanism and post-structuralism tend to see reality as merely constructed. Maximising movements of solidarity with the oppressed must express the freedom of everyone in any particular place. The thesis begins by exploring the nature and significance of philosophical underlabouring (clearing the ground) for decolonisation as self-emancipation. It then engages with issues of value, truth and power by means of establishing a critical realist dialogue between two sets of writings. Key works by Australian (Japanangka West, Yolnju) Maori (Tuhiwai Smith) and American (Moonhawk Alford, Taiaiake Alfred) First Nations thinkers in modernity's colonial context are retroductively analysed in order to suggest what must be the case (in terms of being and becoming) for decolonisation to be possible. Works by philosophers currently establishing and applying Bhaskarian transcendental dialectical critical realist and/or meta-Realist principles of self-emancipation are critiqued in relation to their compatibility with decolonisation. Terms of reference within this dialogue are then supplemented from within writings by a range of others (Fanon, Said, Otto and Levinas), selected for their perceived significance in developing a dialectical praxis of personal and social transformation through spirit within the domain of strengthening community and protecting children
