Later in one of its works, Huntington adoptou a next position to probabilismo (also for times called by ambientalismo, in the estimated one of that the physical environment is main the determinative one of cultural forms) 3. Although everything, the interest of the workmanship of Huntington for geography meets in the fact of that the drawing of synoptic bodies of scientific knowledge is fully valid in ambient sciences (general Theories or laws) that they can if to apply in deductive way. The fact of only believing in the inductive method in the inquiry constitutes an idea that makes it difficult the discovery of new forms of conhecimento4. Published workmanships As writer, its work reached the thirty headings, between which World Power and Evolution (1919); The Character of Races the Influenced by Physical Environment, natural Selection and Historical Development (1924); Season of Birth; Civilization and Climate (1915) the Mainsprings of Civilization (1945). Climate factor (1914); Human Habitat (1927); Palestine and Its Transformation (1911), Climate Changes, with Stephen Visher Sargent (1922); The Pulse of Asia (1907); Chronicles of America: Continent the Red Man (1919); Prince of Human Geography (with sw Cushing, 5 ed. 1940); west of Pacific (1925). It also collaborated in the elaboration of texts for some universities and published more than one hundred articles in some medias. Conclusion This work on the life and the contribution of Huntington in the Evolution of the Thought Geographic, it brought us one another vision on the world.

Huntington in its more vulgar workmanship and that it was through which that it reached its height in the scientific inquiry (The Pulse of Asia), for example, obtains to show to us and to convince us that it is possible to develop science exactly it are of the permission, to be itself more explicit we poderiamos to dezer that it are of the dimension politics and its parameters. We said already it that it already was imprisoned, restrained and forbidden to effect any trips on the river Eufrates, however did not give up. Huntington still while still alive made very for the evolution of geographic sciences, over all for the ambient ones. By the way of this Huntington detail with its theory of determinismso ambient critical ones around this theory had rained many, what it showed to a certain incababilidade and inadequao of the same one in relation to the reality of Asia, however it used utopian bases to take off inferences immediate. This vision of Huntington sends to us the application to it of the method oldest of sciences geographic-comment and to the idea of the insufficience of the use of an only method. Not obstante, it is perceivable, that Huntington had a certain entailing for physical geography, and this can be confirmed minutely reading its workmanships that exactly give to understand that it had a certain bulge for ambient geography. In U.S.A. Huntington a incontornvel figure in the evolution of the national scientific knowledge is considered.

Parallels Between the Earthquake of Haiti – 2010 and Terremoto and Tsunami of Japan – 2011! Prof. Dr. Odalberto Casonatto Sundays This week we are visualizing televising, estonteantes images of the catastrophe of Japan. Passed only one year of the tragedy of Haiti, those images printed ahead of our eyes, that had entered 200,000 a thousand deaths more than still are present in our minds. It seems that of tragedy after tragedy we go being insensitive to these events. They mark the moment, but last some days the media in them presents other facts and goes forgetting. Remembering the tragedy of Haiti, that is more close to us, in the Caribbean, them they are Latin American and exists a Brazilian military contingent there, we suffer with the death of 20 military and of the Dr.

on Arns the Pastoral of the child, seems that it is Haitian tragedy more than says in them close. We think thus for the differences that exist between one and another one. Between Haiti and Japan the contrasts are clamorous: Passed already one year the people of Haiti not yet it was risen, many houses public institutions are there as the earthquake left. In Haiti, a people exists who this in search of a regimen politician who can bring better conditions of life for that empobrecida population. Therefore the social convulsion needing intervention contingents of Peace. The health situation already was precarious, is enough to say that the Dr. Arns, of the Pastoral of the health, victim of the earthquake was in the country to help the organization of the Pastoral of the child whom it searchs to save the innocent children victims of the hunger and illnesses. The epidemic of clera aggravated the situation still more that earthquake decimated hundreds of people after. In Haiti, the situation is showing that the population waits very of the external aid to be able to reerguer the country that already was dived in the misery and the death.

Tory Councillors

However, this posture leads to sterility and betraying the hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants that is paramount for it to generate a counterbalance to all the press anti-immigrant tabloid.A second option is to rescue items of the speech of the Mayor to confront the SUN, to the Daily Express and other media asking for higher hardness against the irregular. The fact that Johnson is a conservative is an element that must be highlighted to increase the fissures in the Government and the opposition.Despite the fact that many leftists question to Johnson by his position before Venezuela and Cuba, for having supported the war in Iraq, have not condemned the bombings of Israel in Gaza and be reducing grants to cultural events, should highlight the fact that Johnson has been placed in a more advanced than the of the three major parties English position in this issue of regularization. He has even mentioned the word amnesty and has appealed to the question of moral duty, issue which has not even come to Simon Hughes, the MP of South London more friend of the Latin American community.While the right-wing Mayor of Rome appeals to anti-gitano and anti-immigrant racism and comes from fascistoides rows, the right-wing Mayor of London faced ancestor to the BNP neo-Nazi Wednesday claiming that Londinium was founded by latinos and it salutes to the Ibero-American community (indicating that it has a bimillennial heritage in London).Saying that Johnson has that position to win votes is not something close to the truth. Today the electoral majority is hostile to immigrants. Mainstream media from the right call more restrictions on them. All parties adapt to it and labour is attached to several anti-immigrant proposals. Johnson, we repeat, is isolated in his own party and his own party because none of the Tory Councillors supports him. He has shown a degree of courage and independence that should be taken into account.Others may say that Johnson is separated from old racist positions that had in the past or who intends to become a champion of multiculturalism.
