<p dir="ltr"><span>La presente investigación selecciona dos urbanizaciones cerradas –UC– instaladas en el municipio de Chía-Colombia con el fin de analizar mediante el estudio de casos, la gestión urbanística –GU– realizada desde las instancias locales de gobierno frente al fenómeno urbanístico particular, en perspectiva comparativa de las décadas de 1990 y 2000. De esta manera, interesa conocer las convergencias y divergencias en cuanto a la gestión urbanística, para lo cual se seleccionaron dos UC según el criterio de emparejamiento de casos –Condominio Santa Ana de Chía y Hacienda el Fontanar respectivamente– y tres dimensiones analíticas: Aspectos físicos y urbanísticos, Apropiación social del emprendimiento, y Fiscalidad y marco normativo e institucional. El texto finaliza con algunas reflexiones en torno a los aprendizajes que deja la gestión urbanística llevada a cabo en las dos urbanizaciones cerradas y presenta propuestas de ajustes para mejorar los instrumentos existentes.</span></p><div><span><br /></span></div>

Resumen: El presente trabajo hace un breve recorrido por las lógicas y procesos de gestión urbanística en torno a uno de los fenómenos de ocupación del suelo más difundidos en las ciudades latinoamericanas - urbanizaciones cerradas -, aterrizado en el municipio de Chía-Colombia. Interesa develar las particularidades y similitudes en la instalación de ese producto inmobiliario y la gestión urbanística habida en el nivel local de gobierno en perspectiva comparativa. La hipótesis que fundamenta la investigación, es que la gestión urbanística de las urbanizaciones cerradas comenzó a recaer de manera importante sobre el nivel de gobierno local a partir de las reformas administrativas ocurridas en las reformas administrativas ocurridas en la inflexión 1990-2000, lo cual generó una contradicción entre un fenómeno territorial con implicancias metropolitanas, los cuales resultaron en normativas fragmentarias que buscaron regular las urbanizaciones cerradas y viabilizar o legalizar los emprendimientos generados fuera del marco normativo vigente. La propuesta metodológica e instrumental, se considera la investigación desde una perspectiva hipotético-deductiva. Se remite a un estudio retrospectivo de un fenómeno en un territorio específico. Se evidencia un panorama en el que lo instrumentos normativos resultan insuficientes e ineficientes para llevar a cabo una gestión urbanística integral, lo que comprobaría que la localización intensiva de urbanizaciones cerradas a lo largo y ancho del territorio municipal, es producto del aprovechamiento por parte del mercado inmobiliario de los vacíos legales existentes además de la sucesiva reformulación de los instrumentos ya vigentes para darles un sustento legal. ___Palabras clave: urbanizaciones cerradas, Chía, gestión urbanística. ___Abstract: This paper makes a brief tour of the logical planning and management processes around one of the most widespread phenomena occupation of land in Latin American cities –gated communities– landed in the town of Chia-Colombia. It is important to reveal the peculiarities and similarities in the real estate product installation and the urban management at the local government level in comparative perspective. The hypothesis underlying the research is that the urban management of gated communities began to fall significantly on the level of local government from administrative reforms occurred in 1990-2000 inflection, which generated a contradiction between a territorial phenomenon with metropolitan implications, which resulted in fragmentary legislation that sought to regulate gated communities and implement or legalize projects generated outside the existing regulatory framework. With respect to the methodological and instrumental proposal, a research is considered from a hypothetical-deductive perspective. It refers to a retrospective study of a phenomenon in a specific territory. A scenario in which the policy instruments are insufficient and inefficient to conduct a comprehensive urban management, which would prove that intensive gated location across the municipal territory is the product of property market exploitation, by the evidence of legal loopholes in addition to the successive reformulation of the instruments already in place to give them a legal basis. ___Keywords: gated communities, Chía, urban management. ___Recibido: 19 de julio de 2015.

ResumenEn este estudio se analiza el tratamiento de los asentamientos tradicionales en el medio rural de Asturias, región pionera en la introducción de la noción jurídica de Núcleo Rural en España. Se examina primero la evolución de este concepto en la normativa autonómica hasta llegar a la regulación actual, que se presenta de forma sistemática. A continuación, se recogen 5 casos de estudio en otros tantos concejos asturianos (Cabranes, Vegadeo, Castropol, Ribadesella y Siero), en los que se analiza el tratamiento de los Núcleos Rurales y la vivienda aislada en Suelo No Urbanizable en sus respectivos planes urbanísticos municipales. Finalmente, se concluye con el análisis comparado de los casos anteriores, identificando los problemas y carencias detectadas, para terminar con el enunciado de unas conclusiones, entre las que cabe destacar la conveniencia de definir una nueva clase de suelo para los Núcleos Rurales y la necesidad de unas herramientas de gestión urbanística específicas para ellos.AbstractThis study analyses the treatment of traditional settlements in Asturian rural environment, as this region was the first that introduced the idea of Rural Nucleus in Spain. The evolution of this concept in regional regulations is first examined, until the current regulation, which is presented systematically. Another chapter presents several case studies in 5 Asturian councils (Cabranes, Vegadeo, Castropol, Ribadesella and Siero), in which the treatment of Rural Nuclei and isolated housing on Non-Developable Land in their Urban Master Plans is analysed. Finally, the paper concludes with the comparative analysis of the previous case studies, identifying the problems and deficiencies detected, to end up with some conclusions, highlighting the need to define a new land class for Rural Nuclei and to develop some specific tools for their urban management.

ABSTRACTThis paper addresses the issue of corporate sustainability. It examines why achieving sustainability is becoming an increasingly vital issue for society and organisations, defines sustainability and then outlines a set of phases through which organisations can move to achieve increasing levels of sustainability. Case studies are presented of organisations at various phases indicating the benefits, for the organisation and its stakeholders, which can be made at each phase. Finally the paper argues that there is a marked contrast between the two competing philosophies of neo-conservatism (economic rationalism) and the emerging philosophy of sustainability. Management schools have been strongly influenced by economic rationalism, which underpins the traditional orthodoxies presented in such schools. Sustainability represents an urgent challenge for management schools to rethink these traditional orthodoxies and give sustainability a central place in the curriculum.

Short-form versions of the Screening Test of Spanish Grammar (Toronto, 1973) and the Northwestern Syntax Screening Test (Lee, 1971) were devised for use with bilingual Latino children while preserving the original normative data. Application of a multiple regression technique to data collected on 60 lower social status Latino children (four years and six months to seven years and one month) from Spanish Harlem and Yonkers, New York, yielded a small but powerful set of predictor items from the Spanish and English tests. Clinicians may make rapid and accurate predictions of STSG or NSST total screening scores from administration of substantially shortened versions of the instruments. Case studies of Latino children from Chicago and Miami serve to cross-validate the procedure outside the New York metropolitan area.

As the field of telepractice grows, perceived barriers to service delivery must be anticipated and addressed in order to provide appropriate service delivery to individuals who will benefit from this model. When applying telepractice to the field of AAC, additional barriers are encountered when clients with complex communication needs are unable to speak, often present with severe quadriplegia and are unable to position themselves or access the computer independently, and/or may have cognitive impairments and limited computer experience. Some access methods, such as eye gaze, can also present technological challenges in the telepractice environment. These barriers can be overcome, and telepractice is not only practical and effective, but often a preferred means of service delivery for persons with complex communication needs.
