Abstract

Have you ever wondered why music makes you feel so good? Why did we evolve to have music, and what does music do to us? You Are What You Hear is a bit of a romp compared to the usual science book. Dr. Witchel, a specialist in music, pleasure and the brain, explains how the body and the brain are influenced by different kinds of music, why some music makes us joyous, while other music makes us sad, or angry, or anxious, and how the brain interprets this music. He also shows how music plays with your mind ? what you think, how you decide what to buy, and even how smart you are. Dr. Witchel's int

Abstract

"This edited collection disrupts dominant narratives about space, states, and borders, bringing comparative ethnographic and geographic scholarship in conversation with one another to illuminate the varied ways in which space becomes socialized via political, economic, and cognitive appropriation. Societies must, first and foremost, do more than wrangle over ownership and land rights -- they must dwell in space. Yet, historically the interactions between the state's territorial imperative with previous forms of landscape management have unfolded in a variety of ways, including top-down imposition, resistance, and negotiation between local and external actors. These interactions have resulted in hybrid forms of territoriality, and are often fraught with fundamentally different perceptions of landscape. This book foregrounds these experiences and draws attention to situations in which different social constructions of space and territory coincide, collide, or overlap. Each ethnographic case in this volume presents forms of territoriality that are contingent upon contested histories, politics, landscape, the presence or absence of local heterogeneity and the involvement of multiple external actors with differing motivations -- ultimately all resulting in the potential for conflict or collaboration and divergent implications for conceptions of community, autochthony and identity"--

Abstract

Space Is Power challenges the conventional wisdom that human territoriality is merely a social construct, that territorial sovereignty is atavistic, that territorial annexation is always irrational, and that territorial disputes are provoked by foreign policy makers who seek to divert public attention from important issues.

Abstract

One of the most present confusions in the field of geographical science refers to the differentiation of the concepts of space and territory; another, also very present, is that which refers to the notion of territoriality. These are questions that we try to clarify in the course of this text, going through relatively recent works already considered classic in geographical thought, and others perhaps less expressive at the national level, but also very important for the constitution of the current perspectives of approaching the territory and territoriality. Human territoriality is studied, simultaneously taking into account our sociability, animality and spirituality, highlighting the first dimension while still considering the others. The text refers, therefore, to the territorialities of the animal-man-social-spiritual, and not to the other animals. Another important initial observation refers to the scalar and temporal levels with which one works. When the text refers to the spatial scales of analysis, they are conceived in a trans-multiscale manner, that is, at the local level (street, neighbourhood, rural “community”, etc.); at the municipal, state, regional, national, international and global level; and when mentioning the temporal scales, they are understood as instantaneous times, periods, phases, and as synchronous slow and fast rhythms, in a coexisting and historical transtemporal perspective. One of the goals is to highlight the need to understand rhythms and inequalities, especially the slower ones, usually neglected in studies of (human) geography.

Abstract

Le présent ouvrage rend compte du colloque Continu et discontinu dans l’espace géographique tenu à la «Maison des Sciences de la Ville» de Tours en novembre 2002. On n’y lira pas le grand combat des « continuistes et des discontinuistes » mais une occasion de dialogue entre sciences de la nature et sciences sociales pour tenter de penser les deux concepts dans leur opposition, forme classique, et aussi dans leur complémentarité, ce qui est plus novateur. Au départ, un ensemble de travaux menées à l’initiative de Michel Lecompte autour du Bassin méditerranéen et dans les Alpes a ouvert la voie à une relecture de la géographique de la végétation aux échelles moyennes de l’espace biophysique. La « phytoclimatologie dynamique » qui en est issue a mis en lumière l’importance de l’analyse des configurations spatiales, du monde de variation - continu ou discontinu - des phénomènes biologiques et physiques dans l’espace géographique. Cette interrogation participe à celle de la géographie, considérée comme un tout, auquel d’autres champs de réflexion se trouvent, de fait, associés, puisque l’espace géographique n’est pas seulement affaire de géographes. De cette expérience, de la volonté d’en rendre compte à l’ensemble de la communauté des géographes et, au-delà, à tous ceux que l’organisation de l’espace géographique ne laisse pas indifférent, est ainsi né le désir de réunir les personnes qui ont pu se poser des questions semblables dans l’autres domaines que celui de la biogéographie. Après une longue introduction, l’ouvrage propose vingt textes de vingt-huit auteurs (surtout géographes mais aussi écologues, archéologue …). Les écrits sont certes variés puisque la géomorphologie fluviale côtoie l’urbain, la dimension technique la fête, la frontière les réseaux et la cartographie les représentations, mais toujours accordées au sujet, débordant largement du factuel pour proposer des réflexions riches. Le découpage en quatre parties permet un cheminement cohérent. D’abord,…

Abstract

Depuis vingt ans, le territoire s’est imposé comme catégorie de pensée des sciences sociales et comme catégorie d’action des politiques publiques. Les uns annoncent « la fin des territoires », bousculés par la mondialisation et le développement inexorable des réseaux. Les autres montrent la vitalité des frontières et des identités territoriales, l’acuité des conflits géopolitiques et le goût renouvelé des terroirs et du local. Face à la banalisation et à la polysémie du terme territoire, il importe d’examiner de manière critique son contenu et d’envisager ses applications les plus pertinentes au regard de la réalité sociale. Cet ouvrage, tiré d’une réflexion collective contemporaine des débuts de la vogue territoriale, propose des définitions, suggère des questions et illustre quelques usages d’une notion aux multiples facettes.
