Situações geográficas em movimento nas praias da área de proteção ambiental de Jenipabu: das ideologias ambientais ao território usado pelo circuito inferior do turismo

The Área de Proteção Ambiental de Jenipabu was created by Decreto 12,620/95, covering the beaches of Redinha Nova, Santa Rita and Jenipabu and Campina communities in the municipality of Extremoz, and Africa community fragment, in Natal. This protected area was created in the context of expansion of tourism in Rio Grande do Norte, in the 1990s, in which PRODETUR investments made possible the installation of infrastructure equipment, mainly in the Via Costeira and Ponta Negra beach in Natal by inserting it in the sun and sea tourism route to Northeast Brazil. In this context the beach Jenipabu in Extremoz, became one of the main attractions for those visiting Natal, due to the natural elements of its landscape, its dune field, which is offered to tourists the buggy ride. In December 1994 the excess buggy rides held in these dunes led to IBAMA ban their access to buggy for carrying out environmental study. This measure resulted in the creation of APAJ in 1995 with the goal of ordering the use and occupation to protect its ecosystems, especially the dunes, the disordered tourism. Given this context, this work aims to analyze the process of creating the APAJ and changes in the geographic space of its beaches, Redinha Nova, Santa Rita and Jenipabu, from the materialization of tourism process, as well as their implications for its residents. To this end, this paper presents a discussion of environmental currents that developed in the western portion of the globe, focusing on the need to regulate small areas of the national territory in protected areas, and an analysis of public policies that enabled the implementation tourism in APAJ as well as the laws and decrees governing the process of creation and management. Using the theory of circuits of urban economy of the Santos (2008) to analyze the territory used by tourism on the beaches of Redinha Nova, Santa Rita and Jenipabu, showing their dependent relationship with the territory used by the upper circuit on the Via Costeira and in the Ponta Negra beach and its influence on the APAJ urbanization process. Ending with the analysis of the influence of the materialization of tourism in the transformation of stocks ways of being-in-space and space-be of the Santa Rita and Jenipabu beaches in each geographical situation of APAJ among the first decades of the twentieth century to the 2014. Fieldwork was conducted between 2012 and 2014, performing actions of qualitative interviews with older residents of Santa Rita and Jenipabu beaches, interviews with structured questionnaire with merchants of APAJ and collecting GPS points trades, identifying and mapping the territory used by the lower circuit in APAJ beaches.

To this end, in view of the aforementioned dynamics, it becomes relevant to the presence of tourism planning, initially starting from the government so that it create laws and standards and develop projects for the management of activities in an orderly way, seeking citizen participation, making essential the presence of actors and agents in local tourism, expanding democracy and knowledge of their place of origin. In this scenario, the Ministry of Tourism is emerging with the National Tourism Plan which incorporates among its actions, the Regionalization Program Guide, adopting a model of regional local management, a participatory manner, through the bodies of governance imposed at the poles, and the shares of public policy in their various departments most responsible for promoting tourism in pole Seridó. This scientific work aims to analyze the pole Seridó, under the theory of tourism area life cycle (TALC) proposed by BUTLER (1980), locating actions for tourism and chronology of the locality applied the proposed process activity.

Políticas públicas, desenvolvimento local e participação social nas instâncias de governança associadas ao turismo no Rio Grande do Norte

In contemporary dynamics, a change is observed in the institutional structure of the state, culminating in several policies for the tourist sector which promote a new management format. The from this view, the Tourism Regionalization Macro Program (TRP), considered a significant program to Ministry of Tourism, arose as an answer to this new reality, having as strategy a joint working of structuring and promotion turned at decentralization of actions, valuing the residents participation in the search of the permanent dialogue between peers and revaluation of places and territories, based in the regionalization process. Based on this bias, this study aims to examine the role of the Tourism State Council of Rio Grande do Norte, with regard to the tourism planning, trying to understand it and solve it as governance Instance, through the Tourism Regionalization Program interventions, given the participation context of its actors and agents. For purposes of this study is delimited as time frame the year 2007 at 2014, understanding that it was this time, there was greater council members accession, as well as different types of sectors representation of civil society, as a result of a tourism public policy based on principles of innovation and participation. In relation to the research problem, this study is conceptualized as a qualitative and the chosen method is the materialist dialectic. Still on the methodological options, utilize the Content Analysis. The results show that the institutionalization of governance instance as the Conetur does not contributes, ideally, in the planning and management process of participatory and integrated tourist activity, facing a fair direction of your space production. The research indicates that there are debates, discussions and guidelines (still in a timely and targeted form), but not reverberates practical effects, by act in a conjuncture that Is strategically designed for political and economic power game, setting the hegemonic actors performance, which uses this arena to instill personal desires and wishes, that are decided in absentia to the council.

Estudio aerobiológico del municipio de Las Rozas de Madrid y aplicación de resultados al control del polen alergénico

La presencia de polen aerovagante tiene un papel importante en la salud de la población, como responsable de reacciones alérgicas que afectan a un alto porcentaje de la población. Por ello la Comunidad de Madrid creó en 1993 la Red Palinológica de la Comunidad de Madrid (Red PALINOCAM) un dispositivo de vigilancia que analiza y cuantifica diariamente, durante todo el año, los niveles polínicos en nuestra región. En su diseño se tuvo en cuenta, el mapa de vegetación y el mapa de zonificación sanitaria, ubicándose los captadores en las zonas más densamente pobladas y procurando que estuvieran representadas las diferencias biogeográficas del territorio. En 2008 se amplío la red con un nuevo punto de muestreo dependiente del Laboratorio Municipal de las Rozas, que interesaba para completar la información de polen en el eje centro- noroeste de nuestra comunidad. Este ocupa una posición intermedia entre el límite metropolitano al oeste de la capital, y el extremo más rural al norte en Collado Villalba, y cubre un área cuya población es superior a los 200.000 habitantes. Su contribución por tanto al conocimiento de la variabilidad y dinámica estacional del polen atmosférico en Madrid es importante y por ello nos planteamos esta tesis, una vez que contamos con datos suficientes, 5 años completos, desde 2009 a 2013...

¿A quién pertenecen los valores de los bienes culturales declarados Patrimonio Mundial?

Presentamos una reflexión sobre el abismo existente entre el significado que tienen las declaraciones de Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO y la percepción e interpretación que le llega a la sociedad, transmitida por las declaraciones de los políticos que gestionan el Patrimonio y repetidas por los medios de comunicación. Desde que se proclamó la Convención de 1972 (París) el concepto de Patrimonio Mundial ha experimentado una evolución interesante visible a través de los avances que se han producido en materia de conservación y valoración del Patrimonio por parte de la sociedad y traducida en el reconocimiento de nuevas categorías patrimoniales además de los Monumentos y Sitios: Centros históricos, Itinerarios culturales y Paisajes culturales. Analizamos también los desvíos que afectan a los bienes declarados tales como la reproducción de los bienes patrimoniales, la reproducción del arte y la pérdida de autenticidad como ejemplo del gravísimo problema derivado de las implicaciones legales y económicas sobre la propiedad del Patrimonio. Es un problema cultural que afecta al comportamiento de los gestores cuando actúan con los valores colectivos de los bienes patrimoniales, comportamiento que se contrapone con el modo con que la sociedad quiere mantener la autenticidad de su memoria y tener acceso a su disfrute. El cambio de relación de los ciudadanos con los valores de los bienes Patrimonio Mundial, nos permite señalar que la sociedad ha llegado a considerar que el Patrimonio colectivo ya no nos pertenece ya que solo sirve para su utilización turística. Los cambios demográficos, la liberalización y la descentralización del mercado mundial, el turismo de masas, y la explotación comercial del Patrimonio, han acarreado un cambio de condiciones que lo someten a presiones y problemas asociados al desarrollo, antes inexistente. Si hasta el año 2000 los documentos legales y las recomendaciones de UNESCO habían creado un marco de referencia para la preservación de conjuntos urbanos históricos, las dificultades actuales, las presiones, exigen la formulación y aplicación de una nueva generación de políticas públicas que sirvan para reconocer y proteger la estratificación de valores culturales y naturales. Estas presiones han actuado para desarmar la protección del Patrimonio Mundial. Pero es preciso que la población no lo note. Por eso se explica el éxito del invento de Patrimonio Inmaterial como nueva categoría patrimonial.
