Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Economía regional Economía espacial Investigación Geografía Humana Economía regional y espacial Habilidades de investigación Clasificación: 330.9 Economía (Situación y condiciones económicas) Resumen: La investigación de las interacciones entre los sistemas humanos y físicos plantea desafíos conceptuales, metodológicos y prácticos únicos. Este libro establece un marco de ciencia espacial para formuladores de políticas, científicos sociales e investigadores ambientales mientras exploran y analizan problemas complejos. Los autores brindan orientación a científicos, escritores y estudiantes de una amplia gama de campos sobre cómo abordar cuestiones disciplinarias específicas de espacio, lugar y escala mientras proponen y realizan investigaciones en las ciencias espaciales. Este libro de texto práctico y una descripción general combinan muchos ejemplos concretos de investigación espacial y estudios de casos para familiarizar a los lectores con el proceso de investigación, desmitificando e ilustrando cómo se hace realmente. El apéndice contiene propuestas completadas y en curso para tesis y disertaciones de maestría y doctorado, así como becas de investigación exitosas. Al enfatizar la investigación como un proceso experiencial y de aprendizaje, al mismo tiempo que brinda a los estudiantes el estímulo y las habilidades necesarias para tener éxito en la redacción de propuestas, "Diseño de investigación y redacción de propuestas en ciencia espacial" puede servir como libro de texto para cursos de diseño de investigación o basados en proyectos en el nivel de pregrado y posgrado de la división superior. Nota de contenido: Spatial Science and its Traditions -- Literature Reviews -- Research Questions -- Data and Methods in Spatial Science -- Graduate Degree Proposals -- Grants and Grant Writing -- Disseminating Research -- Reflections on Proposal Writing in Spatial Science -- Model Proposals -- Theses I and II: Human Systems-Qualitative -- Dissertation I: Human Systems -- Dissertation II: Geo-Techniques -- Dissertation III: Physical Systems -- Extramural Grant I: Research -- Extramural Grant II: Instrumentation -- Extramural III: Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grant -- Intramural Grants -- Index. Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : The investigation of the interactions between human and physical systems poses unique conceptual, methodological, and practical challenges. This book establishes a spatial science framework for policymakers, social scientists, and environmental researchers as they explore and analyze complex problems. The authors provide guidance for scientists, writers, and students across a broad range of fields on how to tackle discipline-specific issues of space, place, and scale as they propose and conduct research in the spatial sciences. This practical textbook and overview blends plenty of concrete examples of spatial research and case studies to familiarize readers with the research process, demystifying and illustrating how it is actually done. The appendix contains both completed and in-progress proposals for MA and PhD theses and dissertations, as well as successful research grants. By emphasizing research as a learning and experiential process, while providing students with the encouragement and skills needed for success in proposal writing, "Research Design and Proposal Writing in Spatial Science" can serve as a textbook for research-design or project-based courses at the upper-division undergraduate and graduate level.

Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Geografía Humana Sostenibilidad Economía urbana Clasificación: 304.2 Resumen: Este libro analiza las prácticas de planificación urbana y desarrollo regional en el siglo XX, y las formas en que se están transformando actualmente. Aborda preguntas como: ¿Cuáles son los factores que afectan la dinámica de planificación a escalas local, regional, nacional y global? Con el impulso para adoptar un paradigma de mercado en el desarrollo de la tierra y la infraestructura, la relación entre la gestión de recursos, el desarrollo sostenible y el papel de la gobernanza se ha transformado. La planificación centralizada está dando paso a la privatización, no sólo en las regiones tradicionales sino también en las nuevas regiones emergentes de Asia, África y América Latina. Además, se están realizando intentos para acercar la toma de decisiones relacionadas con la planificación a las personas más afectadas por ella. Al presentar una colección de estudios de académicos de todo el mundo y destacar los avances recientes en el campo, el libro es una valiosa guía de referencia para quienes participan en las transformaciones urbanas, ya sea como estudiantes de posgrado, investigadores, profesionales o formuladores de políticas.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book discusses urban planning and regional development practices in the twentieth century, and ways in which they are currently being transformed. It addresses questions such as: What are the factors affecting planning dynamics at local, regional, national and global scales? With the push to adopt a market paradigm in land development and infrastructure, the relationship between resource management, sustainable development and the role of governance has been transformed. Centralized planning is giving way to privatization, not only in the traditional regions but also in newly emerging regions of Asia, Africa and Latin America. Further, attempts are being made to bring planning related decision-making closer to the people who are most affected by it. Presenting a collection of studies from scholars around the world and highlighting recent advances in the field, the book is a valuable reference guide for those engaged in urban transformations, whether as graduate students, researchers, practitioners or policymakers.
