The purpose of this study is to analyze the techniques through which Julio CortSzar presents and explores the literary concepts of temporal, spatial and identity displacement. The author's radical departure from the more traditionally structured view of these notions is certainly one of the most perplexing and controversial aspects of his literary style.

Increasingly there has been a new model for inner-city redevelopment and revitalization, in which an urban area is commodified and turned into a festival market and an exclusive shopping district referred to as a shopertainment area. Ybor City in Tampa, Florida, is typical of this new model of redevelopment where urban entertainment and shopping with an active nightclub and dinning scene, entices new visitors to area, and most recently a growing residential population. The residential population that is developing is one of exclusivity and privilege, exceedingly far removed from Ybor City's humble beginnings as a company town or the blighted area that was sacrificed to Urban Renewal polices of the 1940's, 1950's and 1960's. Ybor City is changing into a themed city in which ethnic identity and history is being commodified and the historical and cultural capital of the area is being marketed by the city government and private developers in order to attract daytrippers, seasonal tourists, homeowners and other residents. This thesis deconstructs the gentrifying effects that Camden, Ybor City's first residential apartment complex, has had on the area by examining how the contemporary literature deals with gentrification. Additionally, this thesis will examine the demographic changes in Ybor's population as the area shifts away from residents who historically represented Ybor City, advancing the theory that Ybor City is an exclusive community that is indeed being gentrified.

Delimiting spaces and restricting the indigenous groups? mobility, who recognized its territory by both the natural landscape and mystical and now were unable to pass through the more than 100 kilometers of forest on either side of the border between Brazil and Paraguay, understanding just how limit by the rivers ?pa and Paran?. Currently the Guarani and Kaiow? are over 65,000 people living on 11 reserves or are landless; fit them to readjust the new social space and productive reality. Due to the anthropic pressures of non-indigenous in the formation and management of indigenous reserves and by the Indians themselves when forced to move to new areas led to intense changes in landscapes, culminating in a social, food and territorial vulnerability, beginning a serious conflict over existing land ownership in the MS state. The loss of traditional territory brought a new productive reality and also heavy losses in the fauna and flora biodiversity and the indigenous diet grounded in these three axes the food insecurity impacts directly the family units. In order to characterize the Te'yiku? Reserve Agroforestry Systems (AFS), a mixed research, was conducted from 2014 August to 2015 March with the 19 family units, using the "snowball" method. These in order to generate information on the social and productive aspects, particularly with regard to the AFS management and short cycle crops as a way to support local development alternatives. It was found that the biodiverse AFS are the homegardens type and benefit 85 people directly provide significant change of scenery, especially the established around the houses to restore the microclimates, welfare ensuring families and terer? rounds; enable polyculture following traditional production methods, improving the families diet and food security. / A cria??o de reservas ind?genas no Centro Sul de Mato Grosso pelo Estado Brasileiro, no in?cio do s?culo XX, foi causador de enormes transforma??es no modo de ser e viver das aldeias tradicionais Guarani e Kaiow?. Delimitando os espa?os e cerceando a mobilidade dos grupos ind?genas que reconheciam seu o territ?rio, tanto pela paisagem natural e como pela sobrenatural, foram impedidos de transitar pelos mais de 100 quil?metros de mata em cada lado da fronteira entre o Brasil e o Paraguai, entendendo apenas como limite os rios ?pa e o Paran?. Atualmente os Guarani e Kaiow? s?o mais de 65 mil indiv?duos que residem em 11 reservas ou est?o desaldeados, a eles coube se readequar a nova realidade social espacial e produtiva. Devido as press?es antr?picas dos n?o ind?genas na forma??o e gerenciamento das reservas e dos pr?prios ind?genas quando obrigados a se deslocar a novas ?reas ocorreram intensas modifica??o nas paisagens culminando em uma vulnerabilidade territorial, social e alimentar. Com isso dando in?cio a graves conflitos pela posse das terras existentes no estado do MS. A perda de territ?rio tradicional trouxe uma nova realidade produtiva e tamb?m grandes perdas na biodiversidade da fauna e flora sendo a dieta alimentar ind?gena embasada nesses tr?s eixos, a inseguran?a alimentar impacta diretamente as unidades familiares. No intuito de caracterizar os SAF da Reserva Te?yiku? foi realizada pesquisa mista, no per?odo de agosto de 2014 a mar?o de 2015 junto as 19 Unidades familiares, utilizando o m?todo "bola de neve" (snowball). O objetivo foi gerar informa??es sobre os aspectos sociais e produtivos, principalmente no que se refere aos manejos dos sistemas agroflorestais e das culturas de ciclo curto como forma de subsidiar alternativas de desenvolvimento local. Constatou-se que os sistemas agroflorestais biodiversos s?o do tipo quintais agroflorestais e beneficiam 85 pessoas diretamente, proporcionam expressiva mudan?a de paisagem. Estes foram, estabelecidos principalmente no entorno das casas para melhorar o microclima, garantindo bem-estar ?s fam?lias e as rodas de terer?; possibilitando o policultivo seguindo modos tradicionais de produ??o, incrementando a dieta alimentar das fam?lias e a seguran?a alimentar e nutricional.
