Souvenirs of conquest: Israeli occupations as tourist events

It is perhaps self-evident to suggest that military conquest shares something with tourism because both involve encounters with "strange" landscapes and people. Thus it may not surprise that the former sometimes borrows rhetorical strategies from the latter - strategies for rendering the strange familiar or for translating threatening images into benign ones. There have been numerous studies of this history of borrowing. Scholars have considered how scenes of battle draw tourist crowds, how soldiers' ways of seeing can resemble those of leisure travelers, how televised wars have been visually structured as tourist events (e.g., the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq), and how the spoils of war can function as a body of souvenirs. These lines of inquiry expand our understanding of tourism as a field of cultural practices and help us to rethink the parameters of militarism and warfare by suggesting ways they are entangled with everyday leisure practices. © 2008 Cambridge University Press.

Indisciplinada: a arte em um contexto escolar carioca: uma pesquisa no/do cotidiano

Trabalho centrado em pesquisa de campo de tipo etnográfico realizada em três escolas públicas da rede estadual de ensino do Rio de Janeiro. A dissertação é resultado das inquietações geradas diante do distanciamento entre o legitimado mundo das artes e a periferizada situação da escola pública: uma instituição que tem tantas vezes corroborado com a lógica da distinção. É possível (ao professor) trabalhar dentro da disciplina Artes sem ratificar essa lógica excludente? Exaltamos uma docência atenta ao caráter estético expresso na dupla: Arte via Ensino e Ensino via Arte. Oferece-se um olhar sobre o panorama das condições cotidianas que configuram algumas das mais destacadas realidades do Ensino da Arte na Educação Básica dinamizadas por suas macropolíticas, suas práticas diárias e suas crenças. A metodologia sugerida associa os estudos do cotidiano à revisão bibliográfica centrada nos estudos culturais e em algumas das atuais correntes críticas da Arte e de seu Ensino que circulam a contrapelo das verdades hegemônicas desses dois universos. Um dos objetivos do trabalho que entende a vida cotidiana como manifestação estética do cidadão comum é o de contribuir com a elucidação das tensões que fazem da Arte e, especificamente de seu ensino, um importante campo de embate entre iniciativas emancipatórias e ações reguladoras

A cartografia e o geoprocessamento como instrumento de análise das propostas de redefinição dos limites territoriais da Floresta Nacional do Jamanxim - Estado do Pará

Neste trabalho, categoriza-se o território a partir do ponto de vista relacional do poder e uso do espaço, fazendo referência ao manejo de uso múltiplo sustentável dos recursos naturais da Unidade de Conservação Floresta Nacional (FLONA) do Jamanxim. Criada por decreto presidencial de fevereiro de 2006 possui uma área de 1,3 milhão de hectares, no município de Novo Progresso, próxima à BR-163, ultimamente têm sido palco de batalha no qual está sendo pleiteada a sua (re) configuração territorial. De um lado alguns Atores Sociais com o apóio de políticos da região, objetiva permanecer ocupando 46% do total da área, propondo contornos territoriais através da formação de um mosaico de unidades de conservação na área que hoje é a FLONA. Do outro lado o Instituto Chico Mendes de Conservação da Biodiversidade – ICMBIO que defende a permanência de toda área como Floresta Nacional, excluindo, no entanto, três das 13 regiões estudadas e avaliadas por Analistas deste instituto no ano de 2009. Este estudo objetiva analisar as proposta de redefinição territorial da FLONA, especificamente a viabilidade de implementação da mesma em cada uma das propostas, para tanto o trabalho utiliza-se da ferramenta do sensoriamento remoto, a fim de realizar mapeamento multitemporal da dinâmica de uso e ocupação do solo na Floresta Nacional de Jamanxim, com intuito de investigar a dinâmica de ocupação utilizada na área, evidenciando a convenção da Floresta em Antropismo nos anos de 1984, 1990, 2000 e 2009. O resultado indica que a FLONA do Jamanxim tem seu histórico de ocupação similarcom o restante da Região Amazônica, incentivados por programas de Colonização ofertados pelo Governo Federal, a população que reside em seu interior remonta as décadas de 70 e 80, as quais começam a usar a terra de forma a desmatar para implantar pecuária, garimpo, madeireiras e etc. A forma de ocupação territorial da área que hoje é a Floresta Nacional do Jamanxim indica que a batalha por redefinição territorial ou outras categorias de Unidade de Conservação menos restritivas será longínqua, enquanto existirem entraves por parte do órgão gestor (ICMBIO) em executar a plena gestão da FLONA do Jamanxim.

Forensisch-anthropologische und traumatologische Untersuchungen an den menschlichen Skeletten aus der spätmittelalterlichen Schlacht von Dornach (1499 n. Chr.)

Der Forschungsgegenstand der vorliegenden Arbeit war die Identifikation und Interpretation von Traumata an menschlichen Skeletten. Neben einer umfassenden Darstellung des aktuellen Kenntnisstandes unter verschiedenen Gesichtspunkten wurden menschliche Überreste aus der Schlacht von Dornach 1499 n. Chr. untersucht. Ergänzend wurde eine Versuchsreihe mit Replika mittelalterlicher Waffen an Kunstköpfen durchgeführt. Für die Ansprache und Kategorisierung von Traumata an Skelettfunden existiert kein einheitliches und allgemein gebräuchliches System. Die verschiedenen Herangehensweisen und ihre Vor- und Nachteile wurden benannt und diskutiert. Nachfolgend wurden die Erscheinungsformen prä-, peri- und postmortaler Traumata bzw. Defekte sowie von Verletzungen durch stumpfe und scharfe Gewalt, Schussverletzungen und anderen Verletzungsarten dargestellt. Weitere besprochene Aspekte waren die Abgrenzung von Traumata gegen pathologische Veränderungen und anatomische Varianten sowie eine Diskussion der Methodik und Problematik der Erfassung von Verletzungsfrequenzen. Neben der Bestimmung von Geschlecht, Sterbealter und Körperhöhe wurden an den zur Untersuchung zur Verfügung stehenden Schädeln (N=106) und Femora (N=33) aus der Schlacht von Dornach 1499 n. Chr. pathologische und postmortale Veränderungen sowie als Schwerpunkt prä- und perimortale Traumata identifiziert und beschrieben. Die anthropologischen Befunde zeichneten das Bild einer in Hinsicht auf Sterbealter und Körperhöhe heterogenen Gruppe von Männern mit wenigen pathologischen Veränderungen. Die Ergebnisse wurden vor dem Hintergrund des spätmittelalterlichen Söldnerwesens diskutiert. An den Schädeln wurden insgesamt 417 perimortale Traumata identifiziert, wobei Hiebverletzungen stark überwogen. Die Entstehungsweise charakteristischer Merkmale von Hiebverletzungen konnte experimentell nachvollzogen werden. Weiter stellte sich heraus, dass Hiebverletzungen durch Schwerter und Hellebarden nur in Ausnahmefällen voneinander unterschieden werden können. Verletzungen durch punktuelle Einwirkungen und stumpfe Gewalt sowie Schussverletzungen wurden in weitaus geringerer Häufigkeit festgestellt. Experimentell konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Verletzungen durch punktuelle Einwirkungen mit einer Beibringung durch Langspiesse, Stossspitzen und Reisshaken von Hellebarden sowie Armbrustbolzen vereinbar sind, wobei beträchtliche Limitationen einer genaueren Waffenzuordnung offenkundig wurden. Die Verletzungen konnten als wohl typisch für die damalige Zeit bezeichnet werden, da sie das zeitgenössische Waffenspektrum deutlich widerspiegeln. Die Lokalisation der perimortalen Traumata am Schädel liess kein Muster erkennen, mit Ausnahme der Feststellung, dass grössere Schädelknochen mehr Verletzungen aufwiesen als kleinere. Diese regellose Verteilung wurde als Hinweis darauf verstanden, dass die Kampfweise keine „ritterliche“ gewesen sein dürfte, was in Einklang mit den damals geltenden Kriegsordnungen steht. Postmortale Veränderungen unterschiedlicher Art liessen vermuten, dass die untersuchten Individuen nicht bestattet wurden und dass die vom Schlachtfeld aufgesammelten Gebeine in Beinhäusern aufbewahrt wurden. Die Resultate bestätigten damit Angaben aus Schriftquellen und erlaubten die Zuordnung der Skelettreste zu Gefallenen des Reichsheeres. Beim Vergleich der Dornacher Stichprobe mit anderen mittelalterlichen Schlachtfeldserien traten sowohl hinsichtlich der anthropologischen Befunde als auch im Hinblick auf die Verletzungen und Verletzungsmuster deutliche Ähnlichkeiten zutage. Diese ergänzten nicht nur das lückenhafte Bild spätmittelalterlicher Heere und ihrer Kampfweise, sondern beleuchteten auch Unterschiede zwischen mittelalterlicher und neuzeitlicher Kriegsführung.
