A subject I've enjoyed

Hi everyone, I hope you are well.
Today I'm going to write about the most interesting subject that I've cursed this semester. For me is too complicated to choose at least one, because it wasn't atractive to have virtual classes this year. But, if i have to decide one, I would choose Cultural Geography.
The main goals for this subject is knowing Cultural Geography, thinking Cultural Geography and doing Cultural Geography. With this in mind, the teacher try different contents along the semester, all of this based on two principal lectures: "Las fronteras del discurso geográfico: El tiempo y el espacio en la investigación social" (Aliste & Nuñez) and "Los fundamentos actuales de la geografía cultural" (Claval). An examples of the most important contents are: the concept of time and space as subjectivities based on the reason, the eurocentrism, language as tool and object of study and the differences between natural and social order. Is very important understand that, along the years, the Geography study this contents based on different perspective: deterministic, posibilistic and regionalistic. After all this advances, the Cultural Geography emerge to put the focus on the culture to study how the society produce the space.
What I like the most on this subject is the inclusion of the phenomenological perspective as the interest on the expressions in the society like the protest, the daily or the art.

bye, xoxo

    Cultural geography is very interesting, especially the complexity of this set of characteristics of each society or ethnic group.

    Hello xd
    I am very happy that you like such an interesting branch, from the first classes the professor treats complicated subjects but with a good explanation, besides, it is very related to anthropology

My bucket list

Hi everyone, I hope you're all healthy. In my opinion, is very hard to try thinking a list of materials objects or future goals that I want to complete. Currently, the first that come to my mind is to survive to the epidemic, for me and for all my people. I think we all know that is an extreme position, but because of how is managed the state of catastrophe by the current administration is a very reasonable position. After this traumatic situation, the first that I want to do is take my bike and ride to Plaza Dignidad with my panas, here we going to protest against the government, against the police (ACAB), against Piñera ( renuncia paoql ). Because of all the time that passed, the most probably second thing that I would do is to get drunk with my panas.  In the moment, there is not any other activity in my mind, so I hadn't done any of them. Well, maybe I got drunk with my brother and sister, but isn't the same. I know this is not a very positive post, that is because I...

The Semester Online

Dear all, I hope you are well. In the last post of this semester I'll talk about the good, the bad and the ugly things. To start with a little smile there are some fact that are great, like the semester is almost finished. Well, I can't think more good things so I'll pass to the bad things. About this section the list is pretty longer, but I wouldn't want to extend the post too much so I´ll just tell three. The first that come to my mind are the problems that I have with my computer, for example: the connection to internet is unstable because everyday four persons must be in online classes or working, another one is that my microphone is broken so I can't talk if I have a question, the unique option is use the computer of my siblings if they aren't in classes. The second bad thing is the constant headache because of the screens, and the worst is that I can't stop to use it. The last bad thing is that geography can't go to fieldwork, something that is ver...

IDE

Hello everyone! Today I wanna give you a very useful website to get different layers of territorial information from Chile. The website called IDE ( http://www.ide.cl/ ) have a broad range of database to develop your own cartography. Each time I need a spatialization of a place to research a phenomenon arround it I search IDE in Google, and that is all. In the last time, I visited this website more often than anytime. What I like of IDE's website is its easy access and how you can use it. Normally, I used to use the IDE geoportal: "Visor de Mapas", but if isn't working very well my internet, I prefer to download the territorial information that I need. This is very easy because the page is organized in different categories of layers like limits and borders, flora & fauna, society, economy or climate and atmosphere, to say some of a large list that you have to visit.
