Book Description
This book invites us to reflect on the restoration of terrestrial ecosystems in the context of a region whose identity is still under construction, Latin America and the Caribbean, immersed in a social, economic, ecological and political crisis, whose roots originate historically and politically in colonialism and in the prevailing model of capital accumulation. For the first time, insights and practical experiences on restoration are gathered from most Latin-American and Caribbean countries. Furthermore, this book offers a social approach to restoration, which will likely become preponderant in this field and in this region. The authors claim that a Latin-American knowledge of restoration is under construction and that this discipline can be a significant tool to empower local populations, which might, in turn, lead to a collective action of change. Case studies from 11 countries of the region were compiled, involving multiple voices that emerge beyond generalist principles and with a bottom-up approach. The main idea of the book is to open a debate about the identity of ecological and social restoration in this region. This book is targeted to restoration specialists, volunteers, environmental managers, researchers, politicians and NGOs working on the complexity of socioecological restoration in a region with unavoidable social problems. It is intended for people with similar concerns to those of the chapters' authors. This work tries to integrate a movement on the rise, almost silent, born with its own narratives of successes and failures that do not hinder its development. Finally, the determination and commitment of Latin-American and Caribbean social actors to restore not only natural values but also social, ethical and cultural ones is remarkable.

Book Description
El marketing está presente en la cotidianeidad del ser humano, inmerso en la vida habitual del individuo al navegar en redes sociales, en las calles, mientras se traslada a su centro de trabajo, en los alimentos que consume y en los lugares que visita. En este sentido, las organizaciones advierten los cambios que presenta el entorno para dar una respuesta mediante la generación de satisfactores acordes a las necesidades y deseos que demandan los mercados de consumo. De esta forma las prácticas contemporáneas de marketing, los mercados de consumo y las propuestas de valor contribuyen al desarrollo de la economía de las empresas, por esto se vuelve relevante analizarlas desde distintas perspectivas. Las prácticas del marketing expuestas en esta obra abordan temáticas diversas que van desde el análisis del marketing de nostalgia, en postres tradicionales en el ámbito local, hasta la identificación de factores en el comercio transfronterizo de alimentos de la región, pasando por estudios de localización de restaurantes, la caracterización de influencers gastronómicos en Sonora y el uso del merchandising en productos con sellos de advertencia. En la presente publicación se abordan diferentes escenarios del consumidor desde la óptica del marketing, en los cuales se observan diversas estrategias que en el transcurrir del tiempo han evolucionado y se han fusionado con enfoques éticos y de sustentabilidad.
