El cambio climático se ha erigido como uno de los mayores riesgos para la ciudanía a nivel planetario y, especialmente, para el ser humano que a su vez es el principal causante. Esta investigación ha pretendido analizar el papel de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible para la acción y la intervención social y ambiental y el papel que la educomunicación ambiental tiene ante el reto del cambio climático, como uno de los fenómenos que, por su urgencia, está en la agenda ambiental, social, económica y política, para ello se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica actual de las principales investigaciones en el área. A lo largo de esta revisión se ha observado que el cambio climático y los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible, definidos por entidades supranacionales, no están presente en la educación ambiental y que en la comunicación ambiental solo se cuenta con especial interés las catástrofes y situaciones extremas. En tiempos de redes sociales e informaciones falsases necesario la recuperación de enfoques críticos e ideológicos de la educación para los medios, para el desarrollo de la educación mediática y de la competencia digital para ser capaces de construir nuevas narrativas a través de los medios digitales para formas nuevas ecociudadanías capaces de provocar un cambio necesario y transformador en el sistema.
Abstract:The concept of social production and management of urban ecosystems may be understood as the generation of new physical or relational situations, by constructing, transforming or eliminating physical and/or relational objects or ensuring the fulfillment of their social and environmental functions. This includes the citizen participation in the process of urban planning and transformation, forming a network structured and supported by tools allowing the equal distribution of power in the decision making. The SJVG-MAS Project addresses, in an interdisciplinary approach, the development of computational tools based on Multiagent Systems (MAS) for the simulation of the social production and management processes that occur in urban ecosystems, in particular, the San Jerónimo Vegetable Garden project (Seville, Spain). In this paper, we present a MAS-based simulation tool developed in the JaCaMo framework. We conceived a -dimensional BDI-like agent social system composed of the agents' population, the social organization, the environment, the interactional / communication and the regulatory structures.
The SJVG-MAS Project addresses, in an interdisciplinary approach, the development of MAS-based tools for the simulation of the social production and management processes observed in urban ecosystems, adopting as case study the social vegetable garden project conducted at the San Jerónimo Park (Seville/Spain), headed by the confederation “Ecologistas en Acción.” The authors aim at the analysis of the current reality of the SJVG project, allowing discussions on the adopted social management processes, and also for investigating how possible changes in the social organization (e.g., roles assumed by the agents in the organization, actions, behaviors, (in)formal interaction/communication protocols, regulation norms), especially from the point of view of the agent's participation in the decision making processes, may transform this reality, from the social, environmental and economic point of view, then contributing for the sustainability of the project. The MAS was conceived as a multi-dimensional BDI-like agent social system, involving the development of five components: the agents' population, the system's organization, the system's environment, the set of interactions executed among agents playing organizational roles (e.g., communication protocols for reaching agreements) and the normative policy structure (internal regulation established by SJVG community). The aim of this chapter is to discuss the problems faced and to present the solution found for the modeling of SJVG social organization using JaCAMo framework. The chapter shows the integration of the considered dimensions, discussing the adopted methodology, which may be applied in several other contexts.
Periodic routines have been traditionally identified in Social Sciences as the essential component of social organizations that are persistent in time, with the temporal continuity of such routines constituting the foundation of the preservation of the social systems both between successive generations and between extant and immigrant populations. Open multiagent systems (MAS) with persistent social organizations are, thus, required to be organized around time-persistent periodic routines. In this paper we propose to make use of Coloured Petri Nets (CPN) for the specification of periodic routines that may characterize the social organization of MAS. In particular, the central notions of routine cut, selected routine cut, routine step, and routine step results, as well as the notion of satisfactory performance of a periodic routine, are defined, and illustrated through a detailed example. The notion of routine objective expectation and deviation are used for the analysis of routine performances.
Piaget's theory of social exchanges has been used as the basis for the analysis of interactions in Multiagent Systems, allowing the modeling of interactions as services exchange processes between pairs of agents, followed by the evaluation of those services by the agents involved, producing the so-called social exchange values. The purpose of this work is to develop a BDIFuzzy agent model for the Jason platform, with abilities to assess qualitatively, subjectively the social exchanges values originated in the provision and in the receipt of non-economic services, based on Piaget's theory of social exchanges. An application to the simulation of exchange processes in a social organization, namely, the urban vegetable garden San Jerónimo (Seville, Spain) is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
