Sustainability and environmental awareness in the cities of Abya Yala (Latin America)
by Luis Gabriel Duquino Rojas, Sylvie Nail
Description
The manifestation of the devastating effects of sustained industrialization and social adaption to the reasoning and lifestyles of certain positivism-oriented modernity, derived in the need to put the environment on the international political agenda for considerable discussion. This book proposes a vital network among actors, territories, and governance. So, it aims to be both an example and a means to spark —from various disciplines and ways of thinking— a debate on a very important human task: finding and defending real alternatives to the civilizational and environmental debacle we are going through. This work is built also on the noticeable difference between sustainability and sustainable discourses.
