Spanisch Begriff oder Satz: lo comunitario
"El nuestro es un trabajo que apunta hacia lo comunitario."

Es un proyecto de investigación en antropología.
Es un giro muy común en español (Argentina)pero no se me ocurre cómo poner ese "lo" comunitario, lo político, lo social... Es como que abarca, categoriza las ideas, acciones, prácticas...

Muchas gracias por la ayuda!

Our work is community oriented
Erklärung:
you can't translate lo comunitario..you have to work around it..

either in: community work, or community x, depending on the context

the same goes for lo social and lo politico

it depends on context.

The only exception is in certain academic texts where post-modern writers use The political, the social etc.

cheers

Si tienes que abarcar lo político y lo social, podría ser:

...aimed at achieving community, political and social advancements/progress

O algo similar.

Erklärung:
Hay que agregar "aspects" o "issues" para que tenga sentido el contexto,ya que comunitario se traduce como "relating with the community". Espero que te funcione.

that which is associated with/pertains to the community

Erklärung:
The idea is that is has to do with that which is related to the community (which might be another option, as well). :-)

lo comunitario = that which is associated with/pertains to/related to the community

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 23 hrs 4 mins (2005-10-21 17:24:35 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

El nuestro es un trabajo que apunta hacia lo comunitario = Our work targets everything related to/associated with to the community

apunta hacia=targets/focuses on

Another option might be "Our work focuses on/deals with that which pertains to the (life of the) community"

Given the anthropological context of the source document, "life of" could be used to emphazise social aspects of the environment in question.

Suerte, mar52 :-)

Excuse me: that's without the second "to"

El nuestro es un trabajo que apunta hacia lo comunitario = Our work targets everything related to/associated with the community

Neutraler Kommentar Simon Bruni: out of context I would agree that 'lo comunitario' is 'community-related', but in this sentence 'oriented' encompasses the 'apunta hacia' aspect
