Efectos de Territorio y Estrategias Familiares de Reproducción Social. El caso del Barrio Las playas de la ciudad de Villa María - Córdoba. Effects of Land and family strategies of social reproduction. The case of the neighborhood ´Las Playas´ in the city of Villa María - Córdoba.

Nuestro proyecto plantea analizar los recursos materiales y simbólicos que ponen en juego las familias pobres, en el marco de su reproducción social, a fin de evaluar en qué medida sus estrategias contribuyen a superar o reproducir las condiciones de pobreza hipotetizando que las prácticas sociales de las agentes en situación de pobreza, incluyen limitaciones conformadas por la estructura patrimonial disponible, como potencialidades inscriptas en la trayectoria colectiva y el estado de los instrumentos de reproducción del barrio, considerado como parte del sistema de estrategias de reproducción de sus unidades domésticas. En ese sentido la comprensión de las estrategias materiales y simbólicas que ponen en juego las familias pobres, nos ofrecerá una comprensión acabada de la problemática en cuestión a los efectos de lograr una incidencia mayor a la hora de la implementación de políticas públicas destinadas a este grupo poblacional, y grupos poblacionales similares. La inteligibilidad de este escenario social, puede ser aprehendida fundamentalmente, desde las posibilidades abiertas por las herramientas de tipo cualitativas, sin embargo la metodología utilizada en este proyecto de investigación considera la triangulación de inter-metodológica como recurso fundamental a fin de dar cuenta tanto de la dimensión explicativa como comprensiva de los problemas sociales a estudiar. La muestra es teórica intencional, sus alcances se definen por criterio de saturación teórica. Unidades de recolección: unidades familiares en situación de pobreza que viven en el barrio Las Playas, instituciones formales y no formales que conforman los instrumentos de reproducción social. En el trabajo de campo se profundizarán las estrategias de: 1- Observación a partir de la construcción de guías para la mayor precisión de un registro de tipo etnográfico; 2- Entrevistas semi-estructuradas y abiertas a diferentes familias del barrio seleccionadas a partir de la técnica denominada "Bola de Nieve" la cual provee un alcance exhaustivo en el territorio determinado; 3- Entrevista a informantes clave relacionados con ONGs e Instituciones Estatales actuantes en el barrio, referentes barriales y sindicales, punteros políticos, etc. Los datos obtenidos en el trabajo de campo deben relevar información que garantice el registro de las diversas miradas de los participantes y controlar la diferenciación entre los datos originales y las propias interpretaciones (Mendizábal, 2006). por lo cual la triangulación inter-metodológica, posibilitará articular reflexivamente los resultados cuantitavos y cualitativos. Se prevé la transferencia de resultados a través de publicaciones individuales o colectivas sobre los resultados obtenidos así como la presentación preliminar de los mismos en congresos y conferencias. Asimismo, se organizarán seminarios con los sectores de la sociedad civil que se trabaje en los que se espera discutir los resultados obtenidos.

A comparative analysis of sustainable tourism, planning and development between Sligo and Donegal County Councils

Sustainable Development requires appropriate and continuous planning and management of economic, socio cultural and environmental resources. Tourism planning calls for continuous collaboration among tourism agencies, local authorities and local communities for success of the industry. While evidence suggests that tourism planning has been extensively documented, it is apparent that Donegal and Sligo County Councils have, in some cases failed to adequately address the significance of planning of the tourism industry for the North West of Ireland. This was investigated through interviews with chief planners of Donegal and Sligo county councils and was conducted in conjunction with the analysis of county development plans; which were formulated by both organisations involved in this study. Evidence suggests that although tourism is extensively documented by Donegal and Sligo county councils, neither of the two local authorities have developed implementation strategies to facilitate the promotion of sustainable tourism development. This research compares and analyses Donegal and Sligo county councils and how they plan for sustainable tourism development. It outlines the role of the county councils in relation to tourism planning and how Donegal and Sligo compare in how they plan for such a significant industry in the North West o f Ireland. It highlights the importance of implementation tools and methods and offers future directions that can assist in the development of sustainable tourism.

Investigating the long term planning framework for the Galway Bay community from climate change.

This research looked at the scientific evidence available on climate change and in particular, projections on sea level rise which ranged from 0.5m to 2m by the end of the century. These projections were then considered in an Irish context. A review of current policy in Ireland revealed that there was no dedicated Government policy on climate change or coastal zone management. In terms of spatial planning policy, it became apparent that there was little or no guidance on climate change either at a national, regional or local level. Therefore, to determine the likely impacts of sea level rise in Ireland based on current spatial planning practice and policy, a scenario-building exercise was carried out for two case study areas in Galway Bay. The two case study areas were: Oranmore, a densely populated town located to the east of Inner Galway Bay; and Tawin Island, a rural dispersed community, located to the south east of Inner Galway Bay. A ‘best’ and ‘worse’ case scenario was envisaged for both areas in terms of sea level rise. In the absence of specific climate change policies it was projected that in the ‘best’ case scenario of 0.5m sea level rise, Tawin Island would suffer serious and adverse impacts while Oranmore was likely to experience slight to moderate impacts. However, in the ‘worse’ case scenario of a 2m sea level rise, it was likely that Tawin Island would be abandoned while many houses, businesses and infrastructure built within the floodplain of Oranmore Bay would be inundated and permanently flooded. In this regard, it was the author’s opinion that a strategic and integrated climate change policy and adaptation plan is vital for the island of Ireland that recognises the importance of integrated land use and spatial planning in terms of mitigation and adaptation to climate change.
