Sommario/riassunto

Emblematic animal of the Pyrenees, the Ibex has inhabited its two slopes since the most ancient times. By adapting to this environment, a typical Pyrenean form Capra pyrenaica pyrenaica appeared several millennia ago. Consumed during Prehistory, the Ibex became, during the Upper Paleolithic, an unavoidable figure of the prehistoric bestiary. Many of its representations are world-famous: painted Ibex from the Salon Noir (Niaux cave, Ariège) or sculpted on sperm whale teeth (Mas d'Azil cave, Ariège). This second volume of the book "Ibex and Pyrenees" is devoted to these prehistoric figurations and offers a detailed inventory for the French and Spanish Pyrenees that is completely new and richly illustrated. It also presents Palaeolithic sites outside the Pyrenees in which the ibex is well represented. Beyond its iconographic interest, accessible to all audiences, this inventory is intended to become a working tool for researchers and teachers; it has therefore been structured with this objective in mind and is coupled with an evolving online database. It brings together more than a hundred French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Belgian and Australian specialists and, like the first volume, is dedicated to Jean Clottes, a prehistorian from the Ariège region, honorary general curator of Heritage at the Ministry of Culture and an international specialist of decorated caves.

Sommario/riassunto

The Second Edition of this book is completely revised and updated throughout providing an overview of current challenges faced within the area of Agri-food in relation to policymaking, ecological conservation and socio-environmental justice. Including a range of new chapters, the book explores some of the conceptual and analytical gaps that are presented by current approaches to this topic. The series of interconnected chapters offers a critical reinterpretation of the tensions associated with the failures of mainstream regulatory regimes, land and resource grabbing, and the impacts of global agri-food chains at local, regional and inter-sectoral scales. The book also examines past legacies and emerging challenges associated with agriculture modernisation, politico-spatial disputes, climate change, social movements, gender, ethnicity and education. It likewise addresses the transformative potential of different combinations of biophysical, socio-technical and socio-spatial practices of food sovereignty. Antonio Augusto Rossotto Ioris is reader in human geography and director of the M.Sc. in Environment and Development at the School of Geography and Planning, Cardiff University. Associate editor of the journal Progress in Development Studies and author of, among others, the books “Agribusiness and the Neoliberal Food System in Brazil: Frontiers and Fissures of Agro-neoliberalism” (2017), “Frontier Making in the Amazon: Economic, Political and Socioecological Conversion” (2020) and “Kaiowcide: Living through the Guarani-Kaiowa Genocide” (2021). He edited “Agriculture, Environment and Development: International Perspectives on Water, Land and Politics”, published in 2016. Bernardo Mançano Fernandes is professor of the Graduate Programme in Geography and of the Graduate Programme in Territorial Development in Latin America the Caribbean, São Paulo State University (UNESP), and holder of the UNESCO Chair in Territorial Development and Education for the Countryside. He is CNPq Research Productivity Fellow and leader of the discipline of Geography at FAPESP. .
