Enfoque sistémico aplicado al manejo de parques metropolitanos, una posición desde Bogotá D.C. – Colombia

Abstract

RESUMENLos grandes parques urbanos son un distintivo fundamental del espacio público natural y construido de una ciudad; además, hacen parte de la estructura ecológica principal, que define un ambiente urbano. Aun así, su manejo ambiental no es integrado es reduccionista y enfocado al mantenimiento de las áreas recreacionales, aislándolo de otras dinámicas ambientales, que permiten su funcionamiento. Se presenta aquí, una alternativa de análisis, con base en el enfoque sistémico, que permite el planteamiento de un modelo de manejo ambiental, en este caso, para el parque metropolitano Simón Bolívar, de la capital colombiana, propuesta que implica la asociación de variables funcionales, con el fin de optimizar y de potenciar su buen uso y aprovechamiento, al considerarlo como unidad interrelacionada con sistemas de mayor jerarquía y complejidad y, a la vez, su funcionamiento depende de subsistemas, que condicionan su comportamiento interno.Palabras clave: Parque Metropolitano Simón Bolívar, Teoría de Sistemas, Manejo Ambiental, Ambiente Urbano. SUMMARYLarge urban parks are a banner of the built and natural public space in a city, moreover, they are part of the main ecological structure that defines an urban environment. Even so, their environmental management is not integrated, it is reductionist and focused on the maintenance of the recreational areas, isolating it from other socio-environmental dynamics that allow its operation. Presented here, is an alternative of analysis based on the systemic approach, which allows the approach of a model of environmental management, in this case, for the Metropolitan Park Simón Bolívar in the Colombian capital. Proposal involving the association of socio-environmental variables in order to optimize and enhance their good use and exploitation, to consider it as a unit connected with higher hierarchy and complexity, systems and at the same time, its performance depends on subsystems affecting their internal behavior.

“…According to [52], a systemic approach is necessary to study cities since they are complex adaptive systems. Meanwhile in [53], the author indicate that urban environments have socioenvironmental variables that should be studied systemically. The Systems Approach considers the whole system in the search of means to achieve a goal and its choice [54] and [55]; it represents optimization and efficiency in a network of complex interactions within a dynamic environment, likewise to study cities.…”
