Abstract
En los últimos veinte años, en las
denominadas sociedades postproductivistas
se ha producido un redescubrimiento del
paisaje asociado a su identificación como
un elemento identitario y de calidad. En
la provincia de Alicante, representativos
resultan el denominado secano mejorado
(aprovechamiento de turbias) característico
de la comarca de l’Alacantí y los paisajes
aterrazados (Montaña de Alicante). Los
objetivos de esta investigación son: 1)
Analizar la ordenación tradicional de los
paisajes derivados del uso de turbias y los
aterrazados; 2) Analizar las estrategias de
adaptación al medio y cómo el proceso de
abandono ha repercutido ambientalmente
en el área de estudio; 3) Poner de manifiesto
cómo estas estrategias tradicionales pueden
contribuir a incrementar la resiliencia
de los territorios frente a diferentes
riesgos (inundación, deslizamientos,
etc.); 3) Examinar los nuevos valores
que los paisajes presentan en la sociedad
actual, no solo desde el punto de vista
funcional (relacionado con el turismo
y agricultura), sino también con las
funciones socio-ambientales y educativas que desempeñan; y 4) Elaborar estrategias
didácticas desde la educación ambiental
para la interpretación de estos paisajes
significativos. Los resultados ponen de
manifiesto que el proceso de valorización
no ha sido paralelo al conocimiento de los
elementos que caracterizan a los pasajes
más allá de aproximaciones estereotipadas.
Un mejor conocimiento de su génesis y
funcionamiento contribuirá a fomentar su
comprensión por la sociedad
In the last twenty years, in the so-called post-productive societies there has been a rediscovery of landscapes associated with its identification as an identity and quality feature. In the province of Alicante, the improved dry farming (muddy waters) in the comarca of Alacantí and the terraced landscapes (Mountain of Alicante) are representative. The aims of this research are: 1) Analysis of the traditional management of the terraced landscapes and those derived from the use of muddy waters; 2) To analyse the coping strategies to the environment and how the abandonment of farming has had an environmental impact; 3) To highlight how these traditional strategies can contribute to increase the territories’ resilience to different risks (floods, landslides, etc.); 3) To consider the new values that these landscapes present in today’s societies, not only from the functional point of view (related to tourism and agriculture), but also with the socioenvironmental and educational functions that they perform; and 4) To develop didactic strategies from environmental education for understanding these significant landscapes. The results show that the process of valorisation has not been held in parallel to a process of knowledge of their elements beyond stereotyped approaches. A better knowledge of its origin and functioning will contribute to promote its understanding by the society
