Paisaje Cultural y Proyecto Territorial en el Alto Valle del Río Negro

Abstract

The Upper Valley of the Río Negro was developed at the end of the 19th century with an Enlightenment perspective with the purpose of incorporating it into the international economic matrix. This gave rise to a cultural landscape where farms are juxtaposed with small and medium-sized cities. This model worked adequately until the 1970s, the loss of profitability of fruit production marks the beginning of a series of territorial imbalances (environmental liabilities generated by extractive activities, farms in real estate growth, growth of popular neighborhoods in vulnerable areas, etc. ) that clearly show the inadequacy of the current territorial model. Based on the understanding of the current state of the current territorial model, we believe it is possible to build guidelines that we will call “decalogue for a desired cultural landscape”; For this we will resort to the view of the cultural landscape and its operational trilogy “describe, interpret, propose” articulated with techniques of diagrammatic construction and social cartography.
