El presente artículo pretende contribuir a superar las visiones eurocéntricas y occidentalistas del estudio sobre Al-Ándalus mediante el análisis crítico de dos disciplinas: el medievalismo y el arabismo. En la primera parte se describe el medievalismo como un ejercicio de occidentalismo; en la segunda se examina el arabismo español como una mirada proveniente del mundo colonial francés. Al final se incorporan algunas aportaciones de la teoría decolonial latinoamericana y de la corriente del medievalismo poscolonial anglosajón para situar ciertas líneas de análisis y reflexión que convocan a una mirada poscolonial y no eurocéntrica del fenómeno andalusí.
The Caribbean islands are among the 25 most-vulnerable nations in terms of disasters per-capita or land area, and climate change is only expected to intensify these vulnerabilities. The loss caused by climate events drags the ability of the Caribbean countries to invest in infrastructure and social programs, contributing to slower productivity growth, poorer health outcomes, and lower standards of living. Within this context, building resiliency should become a priority for the Caribbean countries. The series “Building a more resilient and low-carbon Caribbean”, focuses on improving the resiliency, sustainability and decarbonization of the construction industry in the Caribbean.
