Housing beyond land rent?: A critique of market housing solutionism by Stefan Kipfer, Luisa Sotomayor

Against memory systems. by Gaffan, D

“…Nevertheless, there are some strong arguments against this idea: medial temporal lesions produce amnesia by disconnecting the entire temporal cortex from neuromodulatory afferents arising in the brainstem and basal forebrain, not by removing cortex; the temporal cortex is essential for perception as well as for memory; and response properties of temporal cortical neurons make it impossible that some kinds of memory trace could be stored in the temporal lobe. …”

Patrimonialization, Defilement & The Zombification Of Cultural Heritage by Fernando Santos-Granero

“…I propose that Western proclivity and Yanesha reticence towards patrimonialization express not only contrasting regimes of historicity but, above all, opposite cultural strategies for the building of collective identities – one based on an ‘omnivorous memory,’ the other on ‘selective amnesia.’ A greater openness to patrimonialization ventures in recent years could be a sign, however, of an impending shift in Yanesha modes of conceiving and dealing with the past.…”
