Human Vulnerability to Climatic Dry Periods in the Prehistoric U.S. SouthwestJanuary 2010 (has links)
abstract: This study investigates the vulnerability of subsistence agriculturalists to food shortfalls associated with dry periods. I approach this effort by evaluating prominent and often implicit conceptual models of vulnerability to dry periods used by archaeologists and other scholars investigating past human adaptations in dry climates. The conceptual models I evaluate rely on an assumption of regional-scale resource marginality and emphasize the contribution of demographic conditions (settlement population levels and watershed population density) and environmental conditions (settlement proximity to perennial rivers and annual precipitation levels) to vulnerability to dry periods. I evaluate the models and the spatial scales they might apply by identifying the extent to which these conditions influenced the relationship between dry-period severity and residential abandonment in central Arizona from A.D. 1200 to 1450. I use this long-term relationship as an indicator of potential vulnerability to dry periods. I use tree-ring precipitation and streamflow reconstructions to identify dry periods. Critically examining the relationship between precipitation conditions and residential abandonment potentially sparked by the risk of food shortfalls due to demographic and environmental conditions is a necessary step toward advancing understanding of the influences of changing climate conditions on human behavior. Results of this study support conceptual models that emphasize the contribution of high watershed population density and watershed-scale population-resource imbalances to relatively high vulnerability to dry periods. Models that emphasize the contribution of: (1) settlement population levels, (2) settlement locations distant from perennial rivers, (3) settlement locations in areas of low average annual precipitation; and (4) settlement-scale population-resource imbalances to relatively high vulnerability to dry periods are, however, not supported. Results also suggest that people living in watersheds with the greatest access to and availability of water were the most vulnerable to dry periods, or at least most likely to move when confronted with dry conditions. Thus, commonly held assumptions of differences in vulnerability due to settlement population levels and inherently water poor conditions are not supported. The assumption of regional-scale resource marginality and widespread vulnerability to dry periods in this region of the U.S. Southwest is also not consistently supported throughout the study area. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Anthropology 2010

Enabling Development: A Housing Scheme in Rural PakistanRahman, Tariq 27 October 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores the development of a housing scheme in rural Pakistan. In the so-called ‘backward’ district of Bhakkar, five entrepreneurs formed a partnership in 2004 to build the area’s first privately developed housing scheme. As housing schemes are associated with development in Pakistan, they saw themselves as providing services that the state was expected, but failed, to deliver.
Departing from normative conceptions of the state, this case study demonstrates how state power functions in Pakistan. Though it is an entrepreneurial venture, the construction of the housing scheme is structured by a discourse of national development. Further, the project was made possible through the state’s integration of Bhakkar into global economic circuits. I argue that the Pakistani state’s power in this instance does not obtain from its felt presence in Bhakkar but rather from its assurance of access to various physical and digital networks through which it is reconfigured.

Marginal ou anormal? Contribuição da literatura de Antônio Fraga, Carolina de Jesus e Maura Lopes Cançado para outro entendimento da marginalidade / Borderline or abnormal? Contribution of Antonio Fraga, Carolina de Jesus Lopes and Maura Cançado literature to another understanding of marginalityMarcela Lopes Menequini 05 March 2013 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Este trabalho busca, através de um estudo que vincula literatura e pensamento crítico social, explorar as relações entre os processos de marginalização literária e algumas alternativas intelectivas acerca das noções de marginalidade e anormalidade. Seu corpus literário abarca três livros de escritores brasileiros, que, além de não terem logrado inserção no que poderia ser entendido como um cânone nacional, destacam-se ainda pela temática de suas obras, que, em si mesmas, trazem o problema da marginalização. Assim, Desabrigo, de Antônio Fraga; Quarto de despejo, de Carolina de Jesus; e Hospício é Deus, de Maura Lopes Cançado são abordadas a partir das reflexões desenvolvidas, especialmente, por Michel Foucault e Georges Canguilhem a respeito das estratégias de produção de anormais, revelando o quanto a marginalização, antes de ser uma consequência de uma inadequação a normas pré-existentes, pode, de fato, ser a própria fonte de produção destas normas. Buscando valorizar tanto as convergências, quanto as distinções possíveis nas obras daqueles três escritores, o trabalho procura se afastar de uma perspectiva que apreenderia suas obras como produções isoladas e desprestigiadas, para nelas encontrar a potência da afirmação de um discurso literário que tanto se apresentou como denúncia e contestação, quanto como um cuidadoso trabalho de expressão literária e, portanto, de expressão social. / This work seeks, through a study of literature linking social and critical thinking, to explore the relationships between the processes of marginalization and some literary intellective about alternative notions of marginality and abnormality. His literary corpus includes three books of Brazilian writers, that, plus they have not succeeded in inserting in what could be understood as a national canon, stand out even in the theme of his works, which, in themselves, bring the problem of marginalization. Thus, Desabrigo, of Antonio Fraga, Quarto de despejo, of Carolina de Jesus, and Hospício é Deus, of Maura Lopes Cançado are addressed from the reflections developed especially by Michel Foucault and Georges Canguilhem about the strategies of production of abnormal, revealing how marginalization, rather than being a consequence of an inadequate pre-existing rules, can indeed be the source of production of these rules. Seeking value both convergences, as the possible distinctions in the works of these three writers, the work seeks to move away from a perspective that would seize his works as isolated and discredited productions, to find in them the power of affirmation of a literary discourse that both presented as complaint and defense, as as a work of literary expression and therefore of social expression.

Buscando promover uma interação entre o conteúdo e a produção dessas peças teatrais em convergência com as vivências deste autor, buscou-se a percepção e o exame analítico das diversas representações produzidas por este dramaturgo sobre este segmento social no período delimitado, num trânsito contínuo entre o real e o ficcional, fazendo emergir uma diversidade de significações sobre os indivíduos desse universo e a época no qual se inscrevem no quadro de transformações históricas desse recorte cronológico. Ao abordarmos os diversos aspectos desse submundo marginal enunciado pelas diversas fontes utilizadas, nos deparamos com uma imagem singular construída a respeito desses marginalizados, observados sob um novo prisma, revelando as dimensões recônditas desse universo relegado às margens e pouco compreendido pela sociedade em geral. Nesta empreitada, procuramos perceber e discutir o conjunto de práticas culturais, valores morais e costumes diversos arraigados nesses meios, bem como seus códigos de sociabilidade postos em funcionamento no interrelacionamento entre iguais enquanto marginais, e no contato com indivíduos e instituições localizados fora desse circuito cultural, econômico e ecológico da marginalidade. Perpassando a totalidade desse estudo, encontra-se o enquadramento desses excluídos numa determinada época, com características peculiares que tendem a se esmaecer no processo de metamorfose que sofrem esses indivíduos em consonância com as transformações do período, principalmente na década de 1970, quando é possível captar as rupturas de uma época para outra. / Through Plínio Marcos' drama theater in an intercrossing with other documental sources, this paper analyzes the subject of São Paulo urban marginality in the period from 1958 to 1979. Trying to promote an interaction between the content and the production of those plays in convergence with the living of this author, it was seeker the perception and the analytic exam of the several representations produced by this play writer on this social segment in the delimited period, in a continuous traffic between the real and the fictional, making a diversity of significances to emerge about the individuals of that universe and the time in which enroll in the picture of historical transformations of that chronological cutting. To approach the several aspects of that marginal under world enunciated by the varied used sources, we came across a singular image built to respect those marginalized, observed under a new prism, revealing the hidden dimensions of that universe relegated to the margins and little understood in general by the society. In that task, we tried to notice and to discuss the group of cultural practices, moral values and ingrained several habits in those means, as well as your put sociability codes in operation in the interrelationship among same while emarginated, and in the contact with individuals and institutions located out of that circuit, economical and ecological circuit of the marginality. Over passing the totality of that study, is the framing of those excluded in a certain time, with peculiar characteristics that tend to turn pale in the metamorphosis process that those individuals suffer in consonance with the transformations of the period, in the decade of 1970, when it is possible to capture the ruptures of a time for another.

A dinâmica de reprodução da metrópole se revela perversa, desigual, fragmentada e segregada, condição e resultado de relacionamentos urbanos para os quais se restringem os meios e os campos de negociação, assim a violência emerge como meio político e como um dos elementos capazes de construir identidades e estilos de vida, tanto dos grupos sociais estabelecidos, quanto dos grupos sociais com déficit de poder. O objetivo principal foi investigar a lógica e a difusão da violência entre os sujeitos outsiders da metrópole e seus respectivos territórios, que, como a violência organizada entre os grupos sociais mais poderosos da Região Metropolitana, ajuda a configurar uma metrópole que militariza seus problemas, fragmenta o tecido social e estilhaça os seus territórios. Realizamos observações de campo no centro histórico e na zona leste da Cidade de São Paulo e estabelecemos diálogos informais com os habitantes de áreas marginalizadas, genericamente chamadas de periferias, para então analisar as representações, autorepresentações, leituras sociais e espaciais que estes sujeitos fazem de si e do seu grupo social, e dos grupos sociais de alto poder, buscando compreender como estes sujeitos enxergam cada fração da cidade, diante do medo, da insegurança e da militarização que vem caracterizando os territórios metropolitanos. / From an effort to understand urban violence, we contribute to the debate about the urban antagonisms, which showed an opposition between objective and subjective social groups and the subjects of major Brazilian metropolis - Sao Paulo - the light of global transformations that have the metropolitan area and as a condition of re inherent metropolis, accelerated by the globalization of business and governance. The dynamics of reproduction of the metropolis it is perverse, unequal, fragmented and segregated, condition and results of urban relationships for which the resources are limited and the fields of negotiation, so the violence as a political and emerge as one of the elements capable of building identities and lifestyles of both groups established, as social groups with a deficit of power. The main objective was to investigate the logic of violence and the spread between the subjects of outsiders and their respective metropolitan areas, such as that organized violence between the most powerful social groups in the Metropolitan Region, to help set up a city with process of militarization of their problems, the tissue fragments social and splinter the territories within the metropolis. We fielded observations in the historic center and in the eastern city of Sao Paulo and to establish informal dialogue with the residents of vulnerable areas, generally called the suburbs, then to consider the representations, auto-representations, reading and social space that they are subject you and your group, and social groups at high power, trying to understand how these subjects see each fraction of the city, ahead of fear, insecurity and the militarization that has characterized the metropolitan areas.

Narrativas e histórias em quadrinhos : reflexões sobre o preconceito e exclusão nas práticas corporais /Fabri, Eliane Isabel. January 2017 (has links)
Orientador: Lilian Aparecida Ferreira / Banca: Elaine Prodócimo / Banca: Fernanda Rossi / Resumo: O desenvolvimento de processos educativos que tematizem o preconceito e a exclusão passa, sobretudo, pela mobilização e mudança dos valores incorporados pelas crianças, adolescentes e jovens. Neste sentido, a narrativa oral circunscreveu o início deste processo com o propósito de dar visibilidade às histórias sobre preconceito e exclusão vividas e observadas pelos alunos. O cenário das práticas corporais, particularmente as atividades desenvolvidas em um específico projeto social, está repleto de situações de interação entre os alunos e, portanto, carregado de desafios relacionais. Sob este ponto de vista, este estudo buscou analisar o processo de construção de narrativas e de histórias em quadrinhos acerca das práticas corporais por alunos de um projeto social, bem como, identificar e analisar as experiências relacionadas aos preconceitos e aos processos de exclusão vividos ou observados por parte desses alunos. Articulado a esta pesquisa, foi construído um material didático intitulado Orientações para a Elaboração de Narrativas e Histórias em Quadrinhos com a Temática Preconceito e Exclusão nas Práticas Corporais com Crianças e Adolescentes. A metodologia, assentada na pesquisa qualitativa, se constituiu por uma pesquisa-ação. As técnicas de coleta dos dados envolveram: observações das atividades realizadas, registradas em notas de campo; narrativas orais e histórias em quadrinhos produzidas pelas crianças, adolescentes e jovens do projeto social.

In this sense, the oral narrative circumscribed the beginning of this process with the purpose of give visibility of the stories about prejudice and exclusion lived and observed by students. The scenario of corporal practices, particularly the activities developed in a specific social project, is full of situations of interaction between students and, therefore, loaded with relational challenges. From this point of view, this study sought to analyze the process of construction of narratives and comic strips about corporal practices by students of a social project, as well as, identify and analyze the experiences related to prejudice and exclusion processes lived or observed by these students. The methodology, based on qualitative research it was constituted by an action research. The techniques of data collection involved: the obervations of the activities carried out, registered in field note; the oral narratives and the comic strips produced by children, adolescents, and young people of social project. The oral narratives were recorded and transcript by the researcher, after this process, the students turned them into comic strips. The study included 37 children from 6 to 12 years old and eight adolescents and yong people from 13 to 17 years old. In total of 15 narratives were collected, 9 narratives of the children and 6 narratives of the adolescents and young people of the social project. Based on the idea of constructing categories of analysis, it was possible to organize three of them: 1. The narratives and comic strips: analysis of two educational processes. 2. Reflections on prejudice and situations of exclusions of exclusion in corporal practices. 3. Experiences in educational processes... (Complete abstract electronic access below) / Mestre
