UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

A comparative analysis of southern Nevada municipalities, and their active participation to implement historical preservation is the foundation of research for this paper. The city of Las Vegas and surrounding municipalities have varying preservation programs in place. The distinctions between the municipalities historic preservation programs foster little protection for the historic site itself in most cases.

Nueva Concepción De Universidad Refleja Holograma, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Tiene un contenido, yo diría, de mucha actualidad, de mucha coyuntura pero que no se queda en la coyuntura. Hay una reflexión estructural de la coyuntura, además una reflexión teórica. Creo que aquí habría que establecer una discusión para definir el carácter de la revista. Si es que este mismo quiere ser o, en su defecto, quiere especializarse en uno de estos campos.

El resurgimiento de la cuestión local en Ecuador tiene lugar a fines de la década del setenta y principios del ochenta. Serán la descentralización y la modernización las que pongan al orden del día, el debate sobre la reforma del Estado en el que está inscripto el terna de lo local.

Farmhouses That Became Boarding Houses In The Catskill Mountains Of New York State, Virginia Scheer

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

In this thesis the author uses oral histories to study vernacular architecture, analyzing the changes in the way people in the Catskills have used buildings, specifically farm dwellings, to make a living, first as farmers and then as proprietors of boarding houses. The Catskills region in upstate New York is well known for its dairy farms and also for its resorts, but little has been researched to trace continuities and discrepancies between the rural residents and urban visitors. Boarding on farms in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries showed continuity between the two groups: recent immigrants who lived in …

The Architecture Of Argostoli: A Venetian Colonial New Town, Nicholas Patricios

Nicholas Patricios

Argostóli, a Venetian new town on the Ionian Island of Kefallinía, provides an example of how architecture is shaped by cultural factors. Relevant factors in the context of the Venetian occupation of Kefallinía are the political, economic, social, and ecclesiastical ones. From 1500until 1797, Kefallinía and the other Ionian Islands remained a Venetian colony. During these three centuries the Islands formed the boundary between the eastern and western worlds. While most of Greece fell under Turkish rule, the Ionian Islands were exposed to western culture through Venice. Argostóli became the new capital in 1757. The new colonial capital had no …

Fernando Carrión Mena

En América Latina, hay que señalar que el proceso de descentralización se inicia a finales de la década del 70, principios del 80, cuando el proceso de redemocratización se afianza en la región, aunque empieza a tener sus resultados a fines de la década de los 80. Este proceso se caracteriza básicamente por tener dos fases. Una primera, que pone énfasis en los municipios como eje y fin de la descentralización, Este enfoque, a mi manera de ver y de otros investigadores que han estado trabajando el tema, produjo algunos problemas en la propia estructura del Estado Nacional. Por ejemplo, …
