Item type:Publication, Pachamama 5 estrellas: Análisis de las estrategias publicitarias digitales de venta de suelo periurbano en Urubamba - Cusco(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-22)In a context of constant peri-urban transformation as a result of adaptation to new demands and expansion of urban capital in strategic investment areas, the possibility of shaping the city appears as one of the main guidelines for local development in Cusco as the city responds to systems of relationships and complementary processes of action and reaction. In this sense, within a framework of premeditated transformation, in the case of Urubamba (Cusco), an area that has seen its tourist potential increase in recent years, this work aims to analyze the advertising of two pages of lots sales as a means of crystallizing the strategies adopted by private capital to promote and generate value within those opportunity spaces. For this, we collected information from 10 advertisements of ¿A dónde vivir? and Urbania.pe carried out in 2022. It is found that there are four types of land promotion strategies, i) provision of basic services and ii) luxury services, both framed in the notion of “strategic beautification” both as complementary strategies; iii) the tourism investment model and iv) formality-legality, central components of urban transformation within spaces for sale and which are the common denominator in purchase promotion strategies. As part of the studies on peri-urbanization of agricultural land from a more subjective approach to analyze the formation of land prices, it is concluded that the generation of “competitive” rents between urban and rural lands is a central element for the demarcation of its use. Likewise, the use of these strategies are the reflection of a type of collective imagination about the area, which, in turn, contributes to the shared construction of the marketable value of the offered land. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Manufacturing ignorance or dealing with complexity? Adaptation politics and the making of river futures in Colombia(Elsevier BV, 2025-07-15)Futures are not neutral. Imagining certain futures over others is deeply political and rooted in specific imaginaries. We address this issue by scrutinizing dominant future-making processes in riverine change adaptation and elucidate power structures that shape such processes. We describe what future-making processes ground the implementation of adaptation projects, what knowledge strategies are used to (attempt to) ensure certain futures, and what knowledges are actively ignored and marginalized by dominant future-makers and adaptation implementers. To scrutinize dominance in futures and adaptation, we build upon power dynamics of truth regimes in river imaginaries and critiques of modernism in which we highlight how knowing, and not-knowing, are actively produced through manufactured ignorance. We build our understanding of manufactured ignorance by introducing the notion of Hirschman's hiding hand principle which fundamentally suggests that failure to anticipate unintended consequences and unforeseen complexities is a good thing. We problematize this logic and describe the devastating and violent effects in a case study context of the Lower Magdalena River in Colombia, specifically in the Zapatosa wetland. Our findings suggest that the different futures and adaptation actions resonate with different imaginaries, namely a rooted-amphibian imaginary and an eco-modern imaginary. We suggest that manufactured ignorance, as a part of eco-modernism, leads to increased tensions in the case study area, produces deliberate claims of not-knowing and actively marginalizes those involved with alternative future-making practices. We conclude by arguing that this fundamental misrecognition of rooted imaginaries and related futures, rooted epistemic communities and adaptation practices face disproportionate epistemic and physical violence that is legitimized by the opposing (eco)modern imaginaries through the acceptance of manufactured ignorance.2
