    Developing an objectives hierarchy for multicriteria decisions on land use options, with a case study of biodiversity conservation and forestry production from Papua, Indonesia

    A framework was developed for the construction of an objectives hierarchy for multicriteria decisions in land use planning. The process began through identification of fundamental objectives; these were iteratively decomposed into a hierarchy of subobjectives until a level was reached at which subobjectives had measurable attributes. Values were derived for attributes through a variety of methods and weights assigned to objectives through preference elicitation. The framework assumed that the objectives could be incorporated into a linear value function; this required attributes to satisfy preference and difference independence conditions. Strategies were developed to address typical features that distinguish land use decisions from many other multicriteria decisions. The methodology was illustrated with a case study of land use planning in a forestry concession in the Merauke region of Papua Province, Indonesia. The problem involved severe hard constraints; the analysis showed how these can be accommodated within the framework. Results integrated interests and preferences of a diverse set of stakeholders (resident peoples, developers, and conservation professionals) and were intended for implementation. This methodology is extendible to other land use problems

    Los espacios eróticos en Prosas profanas de Rubén Darío

    No full text
    Esta ponencia se propone estudiar algunos de los espacios presentes en Prosas profanas de Rubén Darío. A partir de las apreciaciones propuestas por Claude Calame en Eros en la Antigua Grecia quien distingue los espacios de la pólis desde lo femenino y desde lo masculino. Estos últimos, están integrados en la ciudad y son propios de Eros y los primeros están en los prados, confundidos con jardines, llenos de flores, ámbitos donde comienzan los juegos eróticos para pasar a los jardines de Afrodita en los que se da la transición de la adolescencia a la madurez sexual (Calame, 2002, p. 160). Así también, en la poesía del nicaragüense los espacios, como los jardines versallescos, palacios o salones, son los que albergan al erotismo y a las figuras femeninas que analizamos detenidamente en consonancia con la tradición clásica. La Belleza sobrenatural de las diosas grecorromanas y la belleza femenina en general van a conducir y traducir a la poesía misma y a eso apunta nuestro trabajo. Veremos así, cómo la elección de Eros en vez de Venus o al revés nos marcan el camino para una lectura de la concepción erótica del poeta, un itinerario hacia la consumación del amor o hacia la conquista y los juegos del deseo
