The history of origin and development of dance and music tradition of Tamils in the ancient period can be traced merely from Cangam literature-Ettuthokai and Patthuppattu . The period of this literature is considered from 200 BC to later period of 300 AD or early part of the 4th century AD.

Conflictos y resistencias campesinas ante la violencia del extractivismo minero en Salaverna
Authors: Uribe-Sierra Sergio Elías , Toscana-Aparicio Alejandra , Barrón-Palos Eduardo Javier
Published: October 2021

Analizamos el proceso de transición entre el extractivismo minero de segunda y tercera generación en Salaverna, localidad rural del municipio de Mazapil, Zacatecas, México. La hipótesis de la investigación sostiene que la expansión del extractivismo minero de tercera generación está asociada al ejercicio de prácticas violentas por parte de las empresas apoyadas por el gobierno, lo que podría implicar la violación de los Derechos Humanos en las poblaciones donde se instalan los emprendimientos extractivos. El acercamiento se efectúa desde las categorías de extractivismo y extrahecciones, a partir del análisis de las relaciones entre habitantes locales y la empresa mexicana Frisco. Para ello, utilizamos técnicas de investigación documental y trabajo de campo. Los resultados muestran que la transición entre una segunda y tercera generación del extractivismo no solo implica el aumento de la producción minera, sino la reconfiguración socioterritorial del espacio y el ejercicio de prácticas violentas en zonas rurales por parte de las empresas mineras que cuentan con el amparo gubernamental, lo que influye en el menoscabo de derechos laborales, ambientales y hasta los Derechos Humanos de la población local.

Esta propuesta se inscribe en el denominado “giro sensorial” de las ciencias sociales acaecido en las últimas décadas y denominado por David Howes como “una aproximación cultural al estudio de los sentidos al igual que una aproximación sensorial sobre el estudio de la cultura” (Howes, 2014). En consecuencia, el objetivo de nuestro análisis será explorar el entorno sensorial de las fiestas cortesanas castellanas del siglo XV, por medio del análisis de la crónica del Condestable Miguel Lucas de Iranzo.
Entre comida y baile. El goce corporal en la Fiesta del Haba de Santa Rosa de Tastil (Salta, Argentina)
Authors: Koeltzsch Grit Kirstin
Published: October 2021

El presente trabajo propone analizar la relación entre la comida y los cuerpos en el contexto de una fiesta popular en Santa Rosa de Tastil, provincia de Salta, Argentina. Para ello, relacionaré las expresiones corporales y las emociones alrededor de dinámicas lúdicas, entre el consumo de productos de la región y una fiesta que consta de diversas actividades, donde destacan el baile y las articulaciones corporales. Tales conexiones se abordan desde dos perspectivas: la relación entre comida y cultura, donde el cuerpo juega un papel clave, considerando el enfoque fenomenológico y la antropología de las emociones, junto alconcepto de juego, entendiendo que la convivencia y las acciones humanas están penetradas por lo lúdico. Metodológicamente el trabajo incluye el enfoque autoetnográfico mediante la propia participación en la fiesta, reconociendo así las percepciones y vivencias de la investigadora en este contexto. Concluyo que el goce de la comida no depende del grado de su elaboración sino del acto y las circunstancias de su consumición en un contexto social-lúdico que permite el contacto y el goce corporal.
La fiesta de los pescadores en el Puerto de Mar del Plata, Argentina. Entre tradiciones e identidades reinventadas
Authors: Favero Bettina
Published: October 2021

La fiesta de los pescadores en la ciudad de Mar del Plata (Argentina) se originó hacia fines de la década de 1920 cuando el Padre Dutto junto a un grupo de pescadores organizaron esta festividad sin distinción de nacionalidades. La misma se caracterizó por exhibir un tinte homogeneizador que buscó la confraternidad entre los inmigrantes como también, limar algún tipo de diferencias regionales. En el presente análisis se plantea a esta fiesta como un espacio en el que las tradiciones y costumbres portadas por los inmigrantes fueron reinventadas y en el que se generó una mezcla de tradiciones tanto nuevas como recreadas.
Las fiestas como estrategia de valorización de recursos territoriales: experiencias en la Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina
Authors: Velarde Irene Julia , Barrionuevo Cintia Analía , Bruno Mariana Paola , Cendón María Laura

En las últimas décadas, ante el avance de procesos de estandarización, deslocalización en el sistema agroalimentario, emergieron iniciativas de valorización de productos típicos, relacionados con el patrimonio cultural. Identidad, tradición y tipicidad estuvieron entre los argumentos movilizados en un tipo de innovación territorial: las Fiestas agroalimentarias. Después de indagar en fiestas que tienen lugar en el territorio argentino, este artículo focaliza en seis casos de la Provincia de Buenos Aires: Fiesta del Vino de la Costa de Berisso, Fiesta del Alcaucil Platense, Fiesta del Tomate Platense, Fiesta del Salame Quintero de Mercedes, Fiesta del Postre Balcarce y Fiesta del Salame de Tandil. A partir de una revisión bibliográfica y entrevistas, se comparan experiencias desde el enfoque de Sistemas Agroalimentarios Localizados para reflexionar en torno a características, tensiones y qué rol desempeñan como estrategia de valorización. Los resultados destacan que las fiestas agroalimentarias promocionan productos locales para el turismo pero también refuerzan y resignifican vínculos entre actores, producto y territorio. Asimismo emergen tensiones en torno a la fidelización del consumidor/asistente al producto y/o al evento, la producción artesanal/industrial, la articulación de los actores locales y/o extralocales queponen en debate a las fiestas como estrategia de valorización.
Grande narrativa
Authors: Ferraz Vinicius Suzigan
Published: October 2021

Esse artigo tem como objetivo evidenciar as narrativas jornalísticas sobre o desastre da Samarco que imperaram nos portais on-line em Veja e CartaCapital, a saber, como os veículos representaram o acontecimento factual no primeiro ano de cobertura periodística. Para isso, foi utilizada a Análise de Conteúdo de Laurence Bardin enquanto metodologia quantitativa, visando inferenciar sobre o corpus escolhido. Concluiu-se que Veja constituiu, em suas práticas editoriais, discursos e narrativas mais à direita do espectro político. Por outro lado, CartaCapital tem embutido em suas linhas editoriais um discurso mais à esquerda dessa mesma métrica ideológica.
Anjos da Lama
Authors: Nazario Luiz
Published: October 2021

Em 1966, Florença foi invadida por 80 a 250 milhões de metros cúbicos de água, que arrastaram 30 mil carros e arrasaram casas, lojas, monumentos, chegando em alguns locais a sete metros de altura. A catástrofe destruiu mais de 1.500 obras de arte e um milhão de manuscritos preciosos e livros raros. O cineasta florentino Franco Zeffirelli, que trabalhava na TV RAI, conseguiu chegar à cidade ilhada e ali rodou o impressionante documentário Per Firenze (1966), que, graças ao senador americano Edward Kennedy, rodou o mundo, mobilizando a juventude de vários países a acorrer para Florença para salvar o patrimônio da humanidade. Os assim chamados “Anjos da Lama” anteciparam os jovens que, dois anos depois, se rebelariam em todo o mundo.
Rota de fuga de vidas rompidas

Apresentamos uma experiência da disciplina “Estudos da paisagem em Geografia” do curso de Geografia da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, cujo objetivo foi escavar as paisagens “destroçadas” de comunidades evacuadas, como Socorro (Barão de Cocais/MG), localizada a jusante da barragem de rejeito da Vale e condenada pelos órgãos fiscalizadores. Trabalhando a geopoética através da vivência experienciada pelos estudantes, desnudamos os lugares “usurpados” dos seus moradores. A mineradora adotou uma postura dita preventiva, depois dos dois desastres do rompimento das barragens de Fundão (2015) e do Córrego do Feijão (2019), que levou à evacuação de muitas comunidades, no meio da madrugada, sem direito a voltar ou resgatar nada. Veem-se agora por ali placas: “Rota de fuga”. Pra quem? E para onde?

Published: October 2021

In November 2015, the Fundão Dam ruptured in Minas Gerais. In addition to the casualties, entire communities were destroyed, interrupting the access to cultural heritage and important cultural manifestations in the affected territories. This article seeks to measure the cultural losses of the 843 affected families in the municipality of Mariana, based on a survey using the contingent valuation method. The results point to the importance of the cultural manifestations and the spaces of cultural reference, as indicated by the high frequency with which these manifestations and spaces were mentioned by the affected individuals. The reported values of willingness-to-accept (WTA) compensation for the partial or integral loss of access and the manifestations confirm this evidence.
Entendendo e mitigando os acidentes ampliados na mineração
Authors: Cruz Fernando Discacciati , Nader Alizeibek  Saleimen
Published: October 2021

Os acidentes ampliados recorrentes trouxeram à tona questionamentos acerca das boas práticas na mineração. A dimensão dos danos e a ressonância das vozes das vítimas fomentaram dúvidas sobre a sustentabilidade dos processos mineiros. É possível fazer mineração responsável e produtiva? Quais seriam os papéis e as responsabilidades de protagonistas e coadjuvantes das lamentáveis cenas? Logo, um estudo que busca resgatar a noção dos desastres ampliados mineiros assume relevância para tentar responder estes questionamentos. No plano metodológico, será adotado um modelo de aplicação teórico-conceitual a respeito das técnicas de gerenciamento de risco e análise de acidentes anteriores. Em que os achados indicarão que é possível fazer mineração responsável, produtiva e que seus danos, quando houver, possam ser mitigados.
Práticas empresariais e políticas de resignação
Authors: Vitti Gustavo Schiavinatto
Published: October 2021

Dois grandes desastres envolvendo barragens de mineração atingiram o estado de Minas Gerais e provocaram diversos tipos de dano ao meio ambiente e às populações atingidas. Este texto busca observar as práticas empresariais efetivadas após o rompimento da barragem da empresa Samarco, na Bacia do Rio Doce. Nesse sentido realiza-se uma análise de ações no pós-desastre, a partir de um conjunto de três políticas: políticas de resignação, políticas de gestão do risco social e políticas de afetações. Destacam-se, assim, elementos relacionados às ações de negação do dano ou gestão das afetações e da crítica social realizadas pela empresa Samarco, como alguns elementos relacionados à Fundação Renova, entidade criada por meio de um acordo para realizar os programas de reparação.
desastre-crime do caso Samarco
Authors: Azevedo Eder Marques de , Faria Júnior Aloísio Corrêa de
Published: October 2021

O desafio desta pesquisa é demonstrar, por estudos bibliográficos e jurisprudenciais, a desproporção entre o legado de danos gerados pela Samarco com o rompimento da Barragem de Fundão, em Mariana (MG) e o balanço da responsabilidade por crimes ambientais imputados à pessoa jurídica e ao seu corpo de dirigentes cinco anos após o desastre. O estudo não pretende nem deve ser considerado como um diagnóstico completo e definitivo das repercussões jurídicas do caso. Contudo, diante da complexidade de danos humano-ambientais envolvidos, o artigo contribui com a crítica de que a responsabilidade ambiental da pessoa jurídica pela prática de crimes ao meio ambiente ainda é deficitária, o que estimula a perpetuação de condutas ilícitas no setor minerário.
