La infancia en las prácticas y en el discurso

Este trabajo desarrolla una visión de conjunto sobre la relación entre fenómenos histórico-sociales, ideologías y legislación acerca de la infancia. Describe el ámbito institucional, sus características y modalidades de asistencia y la evolución operada en las prácticas de protección a la infancia poniendo énfasis en la jurisdicción de Córdoba que ofrece marcadas diferencias tanto ideológico-culturales, cuanto respecto de su participación e influencia en el desarrollo histórico y jurídico del país. Realiza un análisis del discurso institucional y del académico jurídico posterior a la sanción del Código Civil, a través de tesis doctorales y otras fuentes históricas dando cuenta de las perspectivas que desde el campo intelectual y académico desarrollaron la lógica de intervención estatal sobre la infancia, hasta comienzos del siglo XX, cuando se sancionan leyes específicas de protección a nivel nacional y se formaliza la intervención del Estado mediante instituciones asistenciales y jurídicas que enmarcaron la protección a la infancia durante todo el siglo pasado

Managing small-scale commercial fisheries for adaptive capacity: Insights from dynamic social-ecological drivers of change in Monterey Bay

Globally, small-scale fisheries (SSFs) are driven by climate, governance, and market factors of social-ecological change, presenting both challenges and opportunities. The ability of small-scale fishermen and buyers to adapt to changing conditions allows participants to survive economic or environmental disturbances and to benefit from optimal conditions. This study presented here identifies key large-scale factors that drive SSFs in California to shift focus among targets and that dictate long-term trends in landings. We use Elinor Ostrom’s Social-Ecological System (SES) framework to apply an interdisciplinary approach when identifying potential factors and when understanding the complex dynamics of these fisheries. We analyzed the interactions among Monterey Bay SSFs over the past four decades since the passage of the Magnuson Stevens Fisheries Conservation and Management Act of 1976. In this region, the Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax), northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax), and market squid (Loligo opalescens) fisheries comprise a tightly linked system where shifting focus among fisheries is a key element to adaptive capacity and reduced social and ecological vulnerability. Using a cluster analysis of landings, we identified four modes from 1974 to 2012 that were dominated by squid, sardine, anchovy, or lacked any dominance, enabling us to identify external drivers attributed to a change in fishery dominance during seven distinct transition points. Overall, we show that market and climate factors drive the transitions among dominance modes. Governance phases most dictated long-term trends in landings and are best viewed as a response to changes in perceived biomass and thus a proxy for biomass. Our findings suggest that globally, small-scale fishery managers should consider enabling shifts in effort among fisheries and retaining existing flexibility, as adaptive capacity is a critical determinant for social and ecological resilience.
