Making conservation sustainable under unfavourable conditions : the case of Chimanimani National Reserve, Mozambique

2019

Based on a case study from the Chimanimani National Reserve in Mozambique, this article analyses to what extent different types of operational practices can contribute to the sustainability of protected areas in relatively unfavourable external conditions. While current conservation policies highlight community participation and market-based approaches, the same “best practices” are not equally valid under different conditions. Where unfavourable natural conditions, lack of infrastructure, difficult access and political instability limit the potential for upmarket ecotourism, actors should focus on community empowerment, diversification of livelihoods, and building joint conservation ideolo…

Role Stress: Burnout Antecedent in Nursing Professionals

1993

Abstract Burnout syndrome has been described by different authors as a reaction to work stress. Hence both the role stress components–role ambiguity and role conflict–appear in the literature as burnout antecedent variables. The correlation between these variables is positive. On the other hand, the work social support (from supervisors and colleagues) is a variable with influence on both role stress and burnout, so the people who perceive higher work social support feel lower role stress and lower burnout than the people who perceive lower social support. In this study we present the results of a correlational study of role ambiguity, role conflict, burnout levels (tested with Maslach Burn…

This Master’s thesis aims to study the resistance process of the indigenous communities of the Colombian department of Chocó and the development of this process into potential grass-roots peace initiative via a particular form of identity reaffirmation through ancestral territories.

The thesis illustrates the change of the logic of conflict and the resultant development of an indigenous organizationa…

Las prerrogativas de estatus y el libre ejercicio de la actividad parlamentaria en la experiencia italiana: historia reciente de una búsqueda incesan…

2021

Las prerrogativas parlamentarias son institutos necesarios para asegurar el equilibrio entre los poderes constitucionales, aunque no pueden ser entregados a la «total y exclusiva» decisión parlamentaria ni a la jurisdicción ordinaria porque, de lo contrario, podrían producir abusos y fuertes interferencias en el ejercicio de las atribuciones que corresponden al Parlamento o al poder judicial. En la experiencia italiana, la Corte Constitucional ha asumido un papel «arbitral» en los conflictos relacionados con las prerrogativas parlamentarias (el juicio por conflicto de atribuciones entre poderes del Estado y el juicio de legitimidad constitucional de las leyes en vía incidental). Sin embargo…
