Los españoles construyeron el Camino Real de Tierra Adentro en los tiempos de la colonia de México. Tal camino corría entre la Ciudad de México y Santa Fe, en Nuevo México, USA. Algunos remanentes ...aun sobreviven en México, pero su localización, longitud y condición no son bien conocidas. Por medio de trabajo de campo y de una investigación de los registros dejados por los españoles, se identificaron tres segmentos del Camino Real. Se adquirieron tres imágenes multiespectrales de alta resolución del satélite Pleiades. Tales imágenes cubren tres zonas donde fueron identificados los segmentos del Camino Real y se llevó a cabo un trabajo de campo. Debido a la degradación, los segmentos del Camino Real muestran bajo contraste con respecto al entorno pero una textura distintiva. Se aplicó un procedimiento de realce y agudizamiento a las imágenes con base al operador Vectorial Laplaciano y al análisis de componentes principales (ACP). Tal procedimiento realza la textura y los bordes de los segmentos del Camino Real. Un compuesto RGB falso color formado por el operador Laplaciano, la primera componente principal y la banda 4, produjo una imagen donde los segmentos del Camino Real son claramente observados. Por medio de trabajo de campo se identificaron las coordenadas y las condiciones de los segmentos del Camino Real. doi: https://doi.org/10.22201/igeof.00167169p.2020.59.4.2018
This study explores the values exhibited by travelers along the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route in Spain. Drawing upon data that were collected en route, pilgrim value systems are identified and ...explored using the hard laddering method and applying means-end chain (MEC) theory. The researchers examine the hierarchical relationship between pilgrimage attributes, the benefits that pilgrims subsequently acquire and the fulfillment of personal values as ends. The strongest associations are found between attributes, consequences, and values with social bonds that are acquired by socializing with peer pilgrims, followed by the search for happiness through an appreciation of natural beauty and the pursuit of contemplation during the pilgrimage walk. These findings provide novel insights into the profane and sacred dimensions of the pilgrimage experience.

This article proposes a theoretical and analytical approach to modern pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela; a cultural and experiential tourism route for the twenty-first century, founded upon the ...recovery (idealized) of the medieval way and leading to a Christian sanctuary (where the remains of Apostle Saint James the Great are held). The success of this route is based on the fact that the new tourist mixes pilgrimage motivations (displacement for religious or spiritual motivations) with tourist motivations, such as the search for various landscapes, the need to mentally unwind and to escape from the pressures of daily life. This work analyses the case of Santiago de Compostela and the evolution of the three elements that make up pilgrimage and lead us to understand the current position of the Camino, along with some of its weaknesses.
Durante el período de pandemia (COVID-19), oficialmente reconocido en marzo 2020, hubo un aumento de casos de violencia de género en países como Chile y Argentina. Sólo unos meses antes, en noviembre ...2019, el colectivo chileno LASTESIS había salido al espacio público precisamente para denunciar la violencia en contra de las mujeres, ello con su "Un violador en tu camino". Como acto artístico-político, la performance permitió elucidar y divulgar tanto a nivel local como internacional la teorización feminista de carácter decolonial, estableciendo un diálogo directo, por ejemplo, con la obra de Rita Segato. Mediante un proceso de retroalimentación, la propuesta se ha transformado en un himno de empoderamiento de carácter social e inclusivo. Inscripto en una perspectiva feminista-decolonial, este artículo contextualiza la performance y examina las réplicas del Movimiento de Sordes Feministas Argentina (MOSFA), de la Colectiva NiUnaMenos Tilcara-Maimara de Jujuy (Argentina) y de la diáspora latinoamericana en Auckland (Nueva Zelanda). Se sostiene que, al irse corporeizando como un nuevo espacio de resistencia feminista, decolonial y contestario de la violencia de género, la performance denuncia el feminicidio a nivel local e internacional, visualizando y problematizando el femigenocio.
The practice of making the pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago (the Way of Saint James), one of the three most important medieval pilgrimage routes in Europe, has undergone various ...transformations related to religious, cultural and political considerations. In 2019, the Pilgrim’s Reception Office in Santiago de Compostela recorded 327,378 pilgrims from all over the world. The aim of this research was to understand the impact of the pandemic on hospitaleros – the individuals who host pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago – and perform a comparative analysis against the hotel industry. In particular, it was noted that in a majority of studies and papers on the tourism and hotel industry, the primary criteria of evaluation were economic issues and the impact of the pandemic on the economy in terms of supply–demand and seller–buyer relationships. The study examined the characteristics of hospitality, which – in an etymological sense – is understood as cordiality and selfless kindness shown to strangers and is regarded in culture as one of the most valuable attitudes towards other human beings. In public discourse, the term most frequently appears in reference to travels, pilgrimages, tourism and other forms of intercultural contact, including diplomacy and migration policy.
La pandemia sufrida en España declarada el 8 de marzo de 2020 hasta el presente mes de febrero de 2022 ha demostrado que el único motor económico que ha sustentado la actividad turística en todas las ...comunidades autónomas ha sido el consumo interno de la propia población. Tradicionalmente vienen proponiéndose los grupos de pensionistas y jubilados como los únicos dinamizadores de la desestacionalización a través de los diferentes programas del Instituto de Mayores y Servicios Sociales -Imserso. En este artículo se realiza una nueva revisión al concepto viajar desde la didáctica y se extrapola con el ejemplo del Camino del Santo Grial. Todo ello con la finalidad de ofrecer otras alternativas en la gerencia de ayudas destinadas a paliar la temporada baja en los diferentes destinos turísticos. Para ello se presenta el Camino del Santo Grial conforme a los parámetros de exigencia europeos para el fomento de nuevos destinos turísticos: huella de carbono 0 emisiones, destino sostenible, etc. Se analizan las relaciones entre el viaje y el aprendizaje apoyados en la experiencia de investigadores que abogan por desarrollar ambos a la vez. Las conclusiones cierran este artículo que pretende dar a conocer otra forma de enseñar cultura, historia, gastronomía y arte a través de la experiencia del viaje.
Este ensayo propone una lectura detallada del capítulo VIII de la segunda parte de Felipe Delgado, novela de Jaime Saenz. En este capítulo, que narra el cumpleaños de Felipe, se pone en escena el ...proceso de proyección por el que el protagonista domina sobre su mundo; al mismo tiempo, Ramona (y el intruso en quien se transexualizará) neutralizarán esa mirada dominante. Es decir, la aparición y desaparición del otro. Comparando el capítulo con Los amantes, de Magritte, y con los Fragmentos de un discurso amoroso, de Barthes, se pondrá en escena la importancia del camino amoroso en esta novela.
Context: The recent increase in accidents, mishaps or road accidents in urban systems with metropolitan characteristics has caused concern in the authorities responsible for planning the issue of ...mobility and transport subsystems. Indeed, there is convergence that the occurrence of this type of events is away from purely stochastic factors, but are the result of anomalies associated with the intrasystemic interaction of the vehicle, the user and the road. In this sense, the objective of this work is to determine through systemic analysis the components that are causing entropy in the second most important metropolis in Mexico. Method: In this analysis the precepts of systems theory are used; in such a way that through the tringulation of data obtained in situ and solved documentarily the causal components of intrasystemic entropy are determined. To do this, a modified derivation of the Pressure-State-Response model that identifies homeostasis in the urban system is elaborated. Results: The high exposure rates force the user to occupy the road subsystem for long periods of time, which triggers voluntary and involuntary human errors complemented by the lax requirements for obtaining driving licenses. From here, the components that produce accidents include in the road part the pavements in poor condition, absence of signaling, poor design of intersections, among others; in the vehicle part, mechanical failures due to the useful life of the internal components, flexible regulatory frameworks, and other; in the part of the user for breach of the regulations, physiological factors among others. Conclusions: From the systemic analysis, mobility is a subject of valuable study to detect the imbalances in the trinomial Vehicle-User-Road (V-C-U), which lead us to generate preventive and corrective measures that suppress metropolitan accidents, morbidity and mortality in the metropolis; or in our terms to reduce entropy levels in the system.
Since medieval times, pilgrimages have been a popular religious or spiritual undertaking. Even today, between seventy and one hundred million people a year make pilgrimages, if not for expressly ...religious reasons, then for an alternative to secular goals and the preoccupation with consumption and entertainment characteristic of contemporary life. InThe Way of the Stars,the journalist Robert Sibley, motivated at least in part by his own sense of discontent, recounts his walks on one of the most well-known pilgrimages in the Western world-the Camino de Santiago.
A medieval route that crosses northern Spain and leads to the town of Santiago de Compostela, the Camino has for hundreds of years provided for pilgrims the practice, the place, and the circumstances that allow for spiritual rejuvenation, reflection, and introspection. Sibley, who made the five-hundred-mile trek twice-initially on his own, and then eight years later with his son-offers a personal narrative not only of the outward journey of a pilgrim's experience on the road to Santiago but also of the inward journey afforded by an interlude of solitude and a respite from the daily demands of ordinary life. The month-long trip put the author on a path through his own memories, dreams, and self-perceptions as well as through the sights and sounds, the tastes and sensations, of the Camino itself.
