La problemática de la tierra: a 18 años de la Ley INRA La primera colección de cuatro estudios sobre temas relacionados con territorios, minifundio e individualización. El primer trabajo de Pablo Regalsky gira en torno a los derechos territoriales de la TCO Ayopaya,una de las demandas de titulación colectiva y reivindicación territorial más importantes en la zona andina que hacia el final del proceso se encuentra en una encrucijada:la disputa por el control de fuentes de agua en el marco del proyecto Misicuni de Cochabamba.
El libro expone historias que incomodan de muchas maneras. Incomoda el mismo título que lleva el trabajo. El ciclo inaugurado en 1996 pocas veces ha sido considerado como una verdadera segunda Reforma Agraria debido a que, en términos legales, tiene hilos de continuidad con la histórica Reforma Agraria de 1953 y, en términos políticos, tanto los gremios corporativos como los movimientos sociales del campo han resistido su aplicación, con excepción de los pueblos indígenas de las tierras bajas y su defensa de las Tierras Comunitarias de Origen (TCO).
Governments in many countries are decentralising to give more control over decision making and budgets to local administrations. One expectation of this change is that local governments will more effectively and efficiently respond to the poorest citizens in their jurisdictions. Decentralisation is especially significant to forest communities, which have historically benefited little from government services and poverty reduction programmes because of their physical isolation and social marginalisation.
OBJETIVO: Identificar zonas geográficas de América Latina y el Caribe para la biofortificación de cultivos básicos como frijol, maíz, arroz, yuca y batata, contribuyendo así a reducir las deficiencias nutricionales en la Región.

By 2050, 90% of the population in Latin America will live in cities, but there is a lack of up-to-date spatial information about the urban extent and patterns of urbanization in cities of this region. In this study, we analyzed population growth, urban density and urbanization dynamics between 1992 and 2009 in the major cities of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Perú using Google Earth and DMSP/OLS night-time lights imagery. We used Google Earth to map the urban extent, and time series of night-time lights to analyze spatial patterns of urban development.
