Passive revolution: A church‐military partnership in the Philippines     

Christopher Moxham  Miriam Grant 《Singapore journal of tropical geography》2013,34(3):307-321

In the Philippines, a Catholic social movement for local development and broad structural transformation, referred to as Basic Ecclesial Communities, offers a counter‐narrative to state development. Predicated on the power of networked local groups, the Diocese of San Carlos has taken the original concept and rescaled it, operating a variety of social‐action programmes at the diocese level. The focus of this paper is a unique partnership between the diocese and the Armed Forces of the Philippines, which has produced a number of measurable positive changes in under‐serviced areas. We remain uncertain, however, about the extent to which the church is cooperating with, or being co‐opted by, the military as it enters into partnership, and many members of the clergy share our scepticism. In this paper we draw upon Gramsci's concept of passive revolution (1971) as a means to conceptualize both the efforts of the church to reform society from within, and the reaffirmation of the hegemonic discourse that seems inevitable.  相似文献   

An application of problem and product ontologies for the revision of beach nourishments     

D. Van de Vlag  B. Vasseur  A. Stein  R. Jeansoulin 《International journal of geographical information science》2013,27(10):1057-1072

An ontological approach in GIS serves as a framework for the conceptualization of processes in the real world. In this paper, we examine an application in coastal change in the Netherlands, whereby beaches are subject to artificial nourishment to offset the effect of severe erosion. The use of ontologies helps to define two scenarios: S_I determined by the regulations from the Ministry for Public Works; S_II grounded on the abilities from an existing spatial dataset. A comparison between S_I and S_II shows that 72.8% of the objects suitable and unsuitable for nourishment are correctly classified. A higher overlap is found in areas where actual beach nourishments were carried out. Inaccuracies in attributes influence the determination of the objects. A sensitivity analysis applied to altitude illustrates a significant increase of objects suitable for nourishment for both scenarios, when altitude is decreased within the lower limit of the root mean square error for the 95% confidence interval. Moreover, the sensitivity of altitude shows that artificial boundaries for beach nourishment objects are not reasonable and consequently should be treated as vague objects.  相似文献   

A Review of “Pesticide Drift and the Pursuit of Environmental Justice”     

Vicki L. Tinnon 《The Professional geographer》2013,65(3):472-474

Measured by growing student numbers and new programs, master's education is one of the most dynamic areas of U.S. higher education. We focus here on the current state of programs that award the master's as their highest degree, so-called master's only departments, a distinct institutional type in the United States, which has received little research attention. Focusing on sixty-four geography programs, considerable differences are apparent in terms of size (both student and faculty numbers), mission, and curriculum; this includes a number of new programs and hybrid degrees that have recently been developed. The findings raise questions about levels of program staffing, program structure, student recruiting, and overall program quality and viability. Given the changing nature of master's education, further attention should be focused on helping universities create, strengthen, and expand such programs in the future.  相似文献   

Southern Exceptionalism and the Perils of Region     

Caroline Rose Nagel 《The Professional geographer》2013,65(4):678-686

Contemporary political trends associated with the rise of Donald Trump seem to confound traditional regional designations in the United States. Yet the concept of region remains salient in popular discourse. This is especially true with respect to “the South,” which appears in several recent nonacademic works as the source of troubling social and political currents. More surprising, given decades of critique of “Southern exceptionalism,” has been the reappearance of the South as a focus of analysis in the scholarly literature on immigration. This scholarly literature works to deessentialize the South by highlighting the vagaries and instabilities of Southern identities, institutions, and landscapes. It can, however, subtly and inadvertently reinforce Southern exceptionalism by identifying the South as a place marked by uniquely fraught histories of racial exclusion. This article critically assesses how the South as a regional concept has located the problem of race in the United States in a specific time and place. This leads to a broader discussion of the persistence of regional imaginaries in the discipline of geography and the need for more deliberate consideration of the geographical concepts that guide our analyses of societal change.  相似文献

天津空港牡蛎礁:中全新世环境恶化与新构造控礁作用   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

新发现的天津空港埋藏牡蛎礁体和下伏、上覆泥层的沉积学、AMS14C年代学研究显示,厚2.3m的礁体分为3部分,起讫年龄是6170～3980cal BP。5900～4100cal BP的中部,是受全新世冷事件4环境恶化控制的缓慢发育期。礁体的结束,则与冷事件3在时间上大致吻合。根据新的年龄数据,将该礁体的归属重新厘定为Ⅲ-2礁群。探讨礁体主要发育区与新构造活动的关系,表明全新世牡蛎礁平原主要位于海河-宝坻-工部-蓟运河断裂圈闭的北西-南东向区域内。这一认识,进一步从实证角度证实了牡蛎礁形成于渤海湾"湾中之湾"的推测。  相似文献   

引力作用下的平衡质量运动     

刘志林  刘泉 《四川地质学报》2012,(4):389-392

根据广义相对论,在天体引力作用下,天体周边的空间是曲折的。空间因天体的引力而发生曲折,地球在引力的作用下也与人类之前所认识的有所不同。本文提出一种新的假设一引力作用下的平衡质量运动理论,试图从思维的角度重新思考和探索地球的运动规律。主要讨论三个问题：地球上质量的分布;地球的运动;地球自转的速度。由地球上海陆质量的分布引出假设一引力作用下的平衡质量运动理论,其次,利用该假设对地球火山、地震和自转进行分析与推导。  相似文献   

塔里木盆地孔雀河斜坡尉犁断鼻构造的构造特征与形成演化          下载免费PDF全文

刘阵  何登发  李涤  张宁宁 《地质科学》2012,(3):588-606

孔雀河斜坡位于塔里木盆地的东北部,其成因与南天山和阿尔金山的地质作用密切相关。尉犁断鼻构造位于孔雀河斜坡西北部,完整地记录了孔雀河斜坡的构造演化历史,该断鼻构造特征的解析对揭示塔里木盆地东北缘早古生代以来的地球动力学背景具有重要的意义。本文利用断层相关褶皱理论,通过对过孔雀河斜坡尉犁断鼻构造带地震剖面的精细解释,分析了该断鼻构造的构造特征与形成演化,并讨论了其成因机制。尉犁断鼻构造在北西-南东向上为一古生界背斜,北西翼较陡,南东翼稍缓,背斜核部上古生界被剥蚀,并被后期由北向南的冲断层所切割。该构造主要反映了3期构造事件的叠加:中奥陶世-晚奥陶世,受北西-南东向挤压应力的影响,形成了北东-南西向展布的背斜; 志留纪-二叠纪,受南天山洋消减、闭合向南产生的挤压应力的影响,尉犁背斜北部持续地抬升剥蚀,形成鼻状构造; 侏罗纪,燕山早期运动影响了古生界和中生界,并使得北西西走向的南冲断层重新活动,错断了先存的鼻状构造。研究认为,尉犁断鼻构造北东-南西向展布的背斜在中奥陶世就开始形成,其主应力可能来自盆地东南的阿尔金山方向,与北阿尔金洋在加里东期运动时的俯冲与碰撞造山对该区域的远程挤压作用有关; 伴随着基底叠瓦构造往北西方向前展,背斜向北西移动了104 km,基底缩短率为48.4％。  相似文献

陈守建  陈奋宁  计文化  李荣社  洛长义  刘荣利  李国栋 《西安地质学院学报》2012,(2):1-14

通过大量野外观察、分析测试和综合研究,结合覆盖全区不同比例尺的区域地质调查资料,对柴达木盆地及其邻区早—中二叠世构造岩相古地理格局进行了研究,并探讨了其形成机制。结果表明：柴达木盆地及其邻区中、北部早—中二叠世为陆内盆山裂谷系统,主体处于伸展构造背景,总体表现为堑垒相间的构造古地理格局;南部为巴颜喀拉洋盆,早—中二叠世是巴颜喀拉洋盆扩张最为剧烈且规模最大的时期,巴颜喀拉洋盆中洋岛、海山遍布;早—中二叠世晚期强烈的华力西构造运动使古板块间的相对运动加剧,巴颜喀拉洋盆大洋岩石圈板块向北强烈俯冲,形成东昆仑陆缘岩浆弧及其南部增生带,东昆仑陆缘岩浆弧岩浆活动十分强烈,宗务隆山—西秦岭陆源裂谷盆地进一步发育,形成十分复杂的构造岩相古地理格局。早—中二叠世是研究区地球动力学机制从强烈扩张到强烈汇聚的转折时期,加强其构造岩相古地理研究对建立该区地层序列、探讨其地质演化历史以及指导找矿等均具有重要意义。  相似文献

喜马拉雅是印度与欧亚板块俯冲碰撞作用形成的全球最年轻、规模最大和正在活跃的造山带。利用LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb测年技术对位于东喜马拉雅构造结侵入南迦巴瓦岩群的片麻状黑云花岗闪长岩进行了测年,获得岩浆结晶年龄为515.5±2.3 Ma(早寒武世),提供了泛非构造-岩浆事件在东喜马拉雅构造结的记录。岩石地球化学分析表明,SiO2含量为66.47%~72.42%,A/CNK指数为0.98~1.08,平均1.03,在A/NK-A/CNK指数图解中样品大部分落入过铝质区,里特曼指数σ为1.53~3.08,为钙碱性系列,在SiO2-K2O图解上大部分样品投入高钾钙碱性系列区,在Harker图解中所有样品中的TiO2、MgO、FeOT、MnO、K2O随着SiO2含量的变化增加而减少,Na2O随着SiO2含量的增加而增加,均呈较好的线性关系。稀土元素配分模式为轻稀土元素富集的右倾曲线,(La/Yb)N为19.1~63.8,出现弱Eu负异常(δEu=0.24~0.88);微量元素表现出Ba、Nb、Ta、Sr、Zr亏损,而大离子亲石元素Rb、Th和U相对富集的特征。Sr、Nd同位素组成表明,丹娘乡片麻状黑云花岗闪长岩具有负εNd(t)值(-8.67~-10.57)和较老的Nd模式年龄(tDM=1.84~3.42),说明其来源可能是上地壳物质,结合87Sr/86Sr初始比值特征,推断丹娘乡片麻状黑云花岗闪长岩是在高温环境下经部分熔融形成的。通过构造环境判别图及岩石地球化学研究认为丹娘乡准铝质-弱过铝质片麻状黑云花岗闪长岩形成于后碰撞造山环境,结合新得到的513 Ma同位素年龄,认为泛非碰撞造山事件早寒武世在东喜马拉雅构造结一带可能结束,进入后碰撞造山的构造演化阶段。  相似文献
