Abstract:
Archaeology in northern Colombia, from the perspective of social history, was developed by American archaeologists after the First World War, when the United States began an expansion in Central America and the Caribbean through banana plantation operations. The United Fruit Company (UFC), a Boston-based company, owned large tracts of land in Central America and some areas of South America, including the Magdalena region in Colombia. Many archaeologists, associated with various museum institutions, used the banana company's networks to conduct archaeological expeditions alongside their esp

This article proposes the notion of an aural industrial extractivist global complex by tracing the place of sound in the early history of corporate colonialism, as practiced by the United Fruit Company. I explore how ethnomusicological (and ethnographic) research and radio, in particular, were key aspects in the corporate expansion of the United States into the Caribbean, Central America, and northern South America during the early 20th century. This ties the extractivist relations to land and to the ocean with sonic practices that were crucial for the articulation of US imperialism in the reg

TimberWest Forest Corporation became Canada's only publicly traded private timberland investment vehicle in 1997.

The company has outperformed its industry peers in Canada and the United States. This success is attributed to the predominance of private lands in the company's business mix and to its ability to export logs off these lands.

At issue is not just a revision of whether violence occurred on the Canadian frontier but a fundamental reinterpretation of what the concepts of “law” and “order” had really meant.

This trade lasted for 103 years, until 1968. In the early 1870s, the ship was sold to Norwegian owners, renamed Magdalena, fitted with a steam-engine, and used as part of the Tønsberg sealing fleet.

This study addresses the variations in surface temperature - Land Surface Temperature (LST) - in the urban network of the municipality of Paracatu, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, which has humid tropical climate of savannah (type Aw), and in the open pit mining activity located near its urban perimeter, between the years 1990 and 2019. The area was chosen because the municipality is the most important of its microregion, being an attractive pole of work due to the presence of several companies, with emphasis on the mining company Kinross Gold Corporation, which is one of the largest open pit mine

AbstractEDITOR'S NOTE: Luis C. Fontalvo, a Colombian, began to preach in his home-land, but several years ago he moved with his family to Canada, and there he found himself in an altogether different cultural, climatological and economic world, to which he had to adapt. Fontalvo, however, in contrast to most preachers who come from the Third to the First World, did not migrate to Canada in the company of fellow Colombian believers nor with the intention of establishing a Spanish-speaking church, but to preach in French to the people of the province of Quebec and in response to what he interpre

AbstractIn 1986, the Japanese architect Osamu Ishiyama published the book Warau Jūtaku (Laughing House), where he humorously aimed to demonstrate that the houses he designed could be built for less than the average price of a typical house at that time. A decade prior, following the advice of his teacher Kenji Kawai, he embarked on a series of trips to the United States, which eventually led to the production of a series of houses through his company Dam Dan. Ishiyama capitalized on the price difference in building materials by industrializing an assembly process through the importation of con

The study of geography is centered on the regional system of the human–land relationship, and the core of the study of the geographical system of the human–land relationship is land use change. Land use is the most direct manifestation of human activities, accompanied by changes in land cover. This is the most appropriate entry point to reveal the evolution of human–land relationships. The past 300 years have been the most intense period of social change in China and the United States. In this study, we investigated the differences and evolution of human–land relations between China and the Un

AbstractMarine boundaries between states of the United States and between the states and the United States have a long and contentious history. Disputes have arisen between states separated by a river and between states in extending their land boundaries seaward. Especially since the Submerged Lands Act of 1953, disputes between states and the federal United States over title to valuable resources in the three-mile coastal area measured from the shoreline have been sharp and continuous.
