Estructuras territoriales ocultas: los parajes en la Quebrada de Humahuaca

Abstract

This working paper is a state of progress within the framework of the network project "Cultural landscapes and local development. Evaluation of programmes, projects and territorial transformations in the Quebrada de Humahuaca". As members of the Nodo3-Rosario we have focused on the conceptual and operational scope of notions such as territory and landscape, the analys is of the processes of transformation of the territory and the alternatives of territorial regulation instruments. Particularly this article aims to highlight the forms of the rural and urban landscape unit, understanding that this unit defines features of identity of the communities living in this territorial system. Likewise raises its inclusion within the outlines of a possible system of planning and as a substantive part of the heritage resources. The unseen defines a "permanent feature" in a complex and extensive both in space and time area such as the “Quebrada de Humahuaca”.
