"The author focuses on one of the most fascinating texts of the 17th and 18th century China mission - the Tianxue benyi (The Original Meaning of the Heavenly Teachings) and the more elaborate Gujin jingtian jian (Mirror on the Worship of Heaven in Ancient Times and Nowadays), both written and compiled by the Jesuit Joachim Bouvet (1656-1730) with the assistance of Chinese converts. The two works were even translated into Latin in order to support the Jesuit position in the Chinese Rites Controversy in the Roman Curia. Through them, Bouvet presented the Jesuit missionary strategy of accommodation in a nutshell: He aimed at introducing Christianity in the terms of Chinese traditional culture. Thus, Bouvet's approach can be characterised as an early attempt at a contextualized theology which is meaningful even for contemporary discussions. The present study offers an introduction to Bouvet's thoughts and works and their respective historical and theological context, a transcription of the Latin texts - the Cœlestis Disciplinæ vera notitia and the De cultu cœlesti Sinarum veterum & modernorum - with an annotated German translation"--

O método de valoración continxente (MVC) baséase na construción de mercados hipotéticos a través dunha enquisa, onde normalmente se lles pregunta aos entrevistados pola súa disposición a pagar (DAP) por un determinado ben que carece de mercado e, polo tanto, de prezo. O obxectivo principal deste traballo é identificar as variables explicativas que condicionan a DAP dos visitantes por gozar dun dos principais elementos do patrimonio natural de Galicia: o conxunto formado pola lagoa e o areal de Valdoviño. A información obtida pode ser de grande utilidade na análise custo-beneficio como fundamento das decisións políticas que afectan á xestión deste recurso natural. ; The contingent valuation method (CVM) is based on the construction of hypothetical markets through a survey where respondents are usually asked for their maximum willingness to pay (WTP) for a certain property that lacks market appeal and therefore of price.The main aim of the study is to identify and explain the variables that occur and condition tourists to pay to enjoy one of the main elements of the natural heritage areas within Galicia including; the coastal lagoon and sandy area of Valdoviño. The information obtained from this study would be very useful in developing a cost-benefit analysis that could be used to inform political decisions that affect the management of these natural resource. ; El método de valoración contingente (MVC) se basa en la construcción de mercados hipotéticos a través de una encuesta, donde normalmente se pregunta a los entrevistados por su disposición a pagar (DAP) por un determinado bien que carece de mercado y, por tanto, de precio.
