THE FOLLOWING PAPER EXPLAINS THE DISCIPLINES AND CONCEPTS THAT HAVE ADDRESSED THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSIC AND SPACE DURING THE LAST DECADES IN THE AMERICAS. I CALL THIS FIELD "MUSICAL URBANISM", A NON-UNITARY SUBDISCIPLINE RESULTING FROM INTERDISCIPLINARY AREAS THAT STUDY THE SOUND IN THE CITY AND ITS IMPACT ON PEOPLE AND SOCIAL GROUPS. MY MAIN GOAL IS TO DEMONSTRATE THE EXISTENCE OF A GRAY BUT STRONGLY INTERDISCIPLINARY AREA THAT HAS BEEN GROWING IN RECENT DECADES IN THE MARGINS OF DISCIPLINES. THE TEXT IS STRUCTURED IN THREE PARTS. IN THE FIRST I MAKE AN INTELLECTUAL ITINERARY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSICAL AND URBAN STUDIES, GIVING PARTICULAR EMPHASIS TO THE GEOGRAPHY OF MUSIC AND URBAN ETHNOMUSICOLOGY IN THE UNITED STATES AND LATIN AMERICA. IN THE SECOND, I BRIEFLY EXPLAIN THE MOST IMPORTANT CONCEPTS AROUND WHICH THIS AREA HAS BEEN DEVELOPED, SUCH AS SPACE, SCENE, CLUSTER AND FESTIVALIZATION, AS WELL AS SECONDARY IDEAS AROUND IT, LIKE CONSUMPTION, SOCIAL NETWORKS OR CREATIVE ECONOMIES. FINALLY, I HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF MUSIC AS A WAY OF CREATING VALUE IN SPACE DUE TO ITS ABILITY TO GENERATE GOODS, FORMS OF CONSUMPTION AND EMOTIONS OF A DIVERSE NATURE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

THE AIM OF THIS PAPER IS TO ANALYSE HOW SOKA GAKKAI INTERNACIONAL DE ARGENTINA ACTS UPON THE SPATIAL DIMENSION CONSIDERING THE STRATEGIES USED IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS. I WILL REFER TO ITS CHARACTERISTIC SPATIAL DECENTRALIZATION AS DETERMINANT OF THE VARIOUS WAYS IN WHICH IT INTERVENES UPON SPACES. I WILL BRIEFLY ACCOUNT FOR THE STABLE SACRALIZATION PRACTICES OBSERVED IN SPACES INTENDED FOR ITS BUDDHIST PRACTICES, OPPOSING TO THE CHANGING ACCOMMODATION PROCESSES USED IN EVENTS WHERE THE ORGANIZATION INTERACTS WITH A BROADER PUBLIC, THAT INCLUDES NOT ONLY MEMBERS BUT ALSO CULTURAL AND GOVERNMENT AGENTS. I WILL SUGGEST THAT THESE ACCOMMODATION PROCESSES TAKE PLACE IN ORDER TO BUILD THE IMAGE OF A HUMANIST NGO SOCIALLY COMMITTED AS A STRATEGY TO OBTAIN A BETTER SOCIAL POSITION. FROM A PERSPECTIVE THAT ACCOUNTS FOR THE MULTIPLICITY OF INTERACTING SOCIAL ACTORS UPON THE SAME SPACE-TIME, I WILL EXAMINE THE RELATIONS BETWEEN SOKA GAKKAI AS A HUMANIST ORGANIZATION AND THE STATE, AND WHAT HAPPENS AT THE SAME TIME AMONG ITS MEMBERS, WHERE, AS A RESULT, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY SEEMS TO BE REINFORCED.

Based on the post-1989 Cultural Geography studies and the Geographic studies of Religion, the present essay aimed to explore the relationship between religion and media in the age of 2.0, the age of social networks and the diffusion of media. In order to achieve this goal, we tried to understand how these new social relations occur through hypermodernity, which is characterized by the culture of excess, the intensification of values and a greater diversification of production aimed at consumption. We have also discussed how the process of development and propagation of the media and the cyberspace create new strategies for diffusion of faith. Through political, economic and local dimensions, we were able to understand the new connections between the sacred, the faith and the new dynamics of hypermodern society. The Roman Catholic Church in Brazil and the new spatial and territorial transformations through cyberspace and media are the empirical examples of the present research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A peregrinação é uma prática humana que funda uma experiência espacial luminosa. Discorrer geograficamente sobre o belo de tal experiência prática é o que tenciona este ensaio científico. Assim, a peregrinação é percebida como um ato geográfico que pode ser interpretado por meio da tentativa de se aproximar da essência dos passos dados pelos corpos peregrinos, o que equivale refletir a respeito das qualidades simbólicas dos espaços tocados pelos pés de homens e mulheres peregrinas. Fundamentado nas práticas de peregrinos da Romaria de Nosso Senhor do Bonfim (Natividade-TO), chego à ideia de que o peregrino desenvolve uma espécie de poesia corporal pelo espaço, acreditando que as suas experiências podem ser, com algum esforço, apresentadas a partir de textos com tal tom de vida - poético -, como tento proceder. LAN-EN Pilgrimage is a human practice that founds a luminous space experience. To discuss geographically about the beauty of such practical experience is what this scientific essay intends to do. Thus the pilgrimage is perceived as a geographical act that can be interpreted through the attempt to approach the essence of the steps taken by the pilgrim bodies, which is equivalent to reflect on the symbolic qualities of the spaces touched by the feet of pilgrim men and women. Based on the pilgrimage practices of Our Lord of Bonfim's Pilgrimage (Nativity-TO), I come to the idea that the pilgrim develops a kind of corporal poetry for space, believing that his experiences can be, with some effort, presented from texts with such a tone of life - poetic - as I try to proceed.

THIS WORK AIMS TO EXPLORE THE CONCEPTS OF IDENTITY AND MEMORY IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE CITY OF RECIFE-PE, IS REPRESENTED IN THE FILM ONCE UPON A TIME VERÔNICA (ERA UMA VEZ EU, VERÔNICA, MARCELO GOMES, 2012) AND IS CONSTRUCTED AS THE LOCUS FOR IDENTITY AND MEMORY OF THOSE WHO EXPERIENCE THE CONTEMPORARY URBAN LIFE REALITY. AN ANALYSIS OF THE FILM'S DISCOURSE IS PRESENTED BASED ON THE THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS BY STUART HALL (2005) - ON THE POST-MODERN IDENTITIES; JOEL CANDAU (2011) - ON THE DIALECTIC BETWEEN IDENTITY AND MEMORY NARRATED AS A SOURCE OF TIME PRESERVATION, ACCORDING TO AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW; YI-FU TUAN (1983) AND EDWARD RELPH (2012) AND THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF PLACE AND THE EXPERIENCES THAT TRANSFORM SPACE INTO PLACE INTERFERING WITH INDIVIDUAL'S CONTEMPORARY IDENTITY.

WE PROBLEMATIZE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SPACE AND CITIZENSHIP IN THE ACTION OF LGBT NGOS IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL. OUR EMPIRICAL MATERIAL REFERS TO THE RESULT OF TEN SEMI-STRUCTURED INTERVIEWS WITH NGOS THAT HAVE FOCUSED THEIR WORK BUILDING A BRAZILIAN LGBT CITIZENSHIP FOR GROUPS AS PROPOSED BY BUTLER (2008), LIVE INVISIBLE AND UNINHABITABLE POSITIONS OF SOCIAL LIFE. WHAT RESPONSES OF FIELD EVIDENCE RELATES TO THE FACT THAT THESE ACTIONS ARE ORIENTED TO THE MULTIPLICITY OF COEXISTING SPATIAL SCALES OF OPERATION, BOTH IN RELATION TO SOCIAL GROUPS, AND IN THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE STATE. THUS, CITIZENSHIP IN ACTUAL PRACTICE CAN GO BEYOND WHAT IS PROVIDED BY THE STATE AS A SOCIAL, CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS, MAKING ABJECT BODIES BECOME SUBJECTS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BASED ON RENEWED CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY'S REFERENCES, AS WELL AS CONSIDERING CONTRIBUTIONS FROM OTHER SOCIAL SCIENCES, THIS WORK AIMS AT THE DYNAMICS OF MARACATU NATIONS. THIS RESEARCH LOOKS INTO UNDERSTANDING THIS STRONG RELIGIOUSLY TIED CULTURAL PRACTICE GEOGRAPHICALLY, UNMASKING THEIR TERRITORIALITIES, THEIR SYMBOLIC PLACES AND SYMBOLIC ITINERARIES, MODIFIED HISTORICALLY, AS WELL AS THEIR INTERFACES BETWEEN SPACE AND GENDER WITHIN. GEOGRAPHY CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE INTERPRETATION OF WOMEN'S AND MEN'S SPATIAL REALITIES WHO EMBODY THE FEMININE IN MARACATU NATION, EITHER IN THE DRUMBEATS, THE ROYAL COURT, AT ITS HEADQUARTERS, IN CATIRINAS'S ROW OR IN THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH THE GROUPS ARE LOCATED.

THIS PAPER THIS IS A THEORETICAL STUDY , WITH INITIATIVE TO INVOLVE THE ANALYSIS OF GEOGRAPHIC SPACE AND GENDER AS AN ANALYTICAL CATEGORY , WITH A VIEW THAT THE REFERENCES THAT ADDRESS THESE ISSUES ARE GROWING , GROWING RICHER DEBATE THIS NEW WAY TO STUDY THE GEOGRAPHICAL EXPRESSIONS. IT DISCUSSES THE CONCEPT OF GENDER FROM THE HISTORIC BUILDING OF WOMEN'S OPPRESSION WITHIN THE CLASS SOCIETY CONTEXT, AND IN THE ORGANIZATION OF GEOGRAPHICAL SPACE PROCESS. IN ORDER TO JOIN THE GENDER CATEGORY TO THE CONCEPT OF SPACE, APPROACHES TO GENDER RELATIONS AS STRUCTURING AGENTS IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF SPACE AND GEOGRAPHY AS A SCIENCE THAT SHOULD EXTEND HIS REFLECTIONS ON THESE RELATIONSHIPS, UNDERSTANDING THEM AS PART OF THE PRACTICE SPACE THAT ALLOWS UNVEIL THE BASIS OF THE GEOGRAPHIC ORGANIZATION OF SOCIETIES AND THE POWER STRUCTURE BETWEEN GENDERS.

THE TERRITORIAL SCOPE IS SUITABLE FOR INCREASING THE "PLACE" AND MAKING FROM THIS TIME WITNESSED THE ALTERNATION BETWEEN THE SCENARIOS OF THE PAST WITH THE SCENARIOS OF THIS THROUGH HISTORICAL MATERIALITY. THESE PHYSICAL ELEMENTS TESTIFY ABOUT A NEW REALITY MADE UP OF IMMIGRANTS, BUT SCALED FROM THE INSERTION OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THESE NEW SCENARIOS THAT REPRESENT THE CURRENT TIME OF ITS ACCEPTANCE IN SPACE.
