The problem and the solution of accounting in a text

1993

Abstract An interpretative reading of accounting texts published in management accounting journals is offered. The selected articles were read many times, but the phenomenological hermeneutic description is developed through a process of “three readings.” The first reading proposes that the texts share a pattern of preach: They start with an introduction, describe a failing accounting, and remind the reader that through change, better accounting is achievable. In the second reading it is noticed, however, that the idea of “defining a problem and finding a solution with the help of accounting” receives a very different expression in different articles. Consequently, the third reading suggest…

Economic Digital Transformation Lab

The main aim of the group is tracing the determinants of economies’ digitalization processes within countries in the field of economics, finance and law, by sharing experiences of different European countries of processes of economies’ digitalization. An extremely important point are the legal aspects which keep up economic changes and are well adapted to changes in economies or, by contrast, leave some areas of economic life underregulated. Another objective is the modelling of perspectives of business development: how it should be redefined according to organisational structures and ecological aspects, or how digital changes on the labour market determine the development trends of busines…

Rúbricas para la tutorización y (auto)evaluación de Trabajos Fin de Máster en el ámbito del desarrollo local y territorial

2015

[EN] The final project of the Master's Degree in Management and Promotion of Local Development reflects the plurality and multidisciplinary complexity of working in the field of territorial development where different approaches and professors come together, each one with their own scientific corpus and educational practice. In order to deal with this complexity, the design of a new evaluation model for this subject was seen as necessary. The idea was to guarantee transversal and simple criteria which were seen as valid under any academic perspective that values the students' work and learning in the theoretical and/or applied field of local development. The rubric proposed as result allows…

Bourdieu en la educación científica: consecuencias para la enseñanza y la investigación

2012

Over the last decades, the development and establishment of a sociocultural approach to science education have led to an increasing interest in other theoretical frameworks such as the sociology of science and the sociology of education of Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002). With the purpose of contributing to the advancement of the appropriation of Bourdieu’s work by research in science education, this paper presents some of the most important ideas of this author and discusses their implications for science education and research. A lo largo de las últimas décadas, el desarrollo y la consolidación de un abordaje sociocultural a la educación científica han dado lugar a un creciente interés por re…

Reproductive Medicine

Infertility, or the inability to conceive a child, is a medical condition recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) that causes serious health problems for affected women, as well as significant epidemiological and sociological repercussions for society. It is estimated that this condition affects 15% of couples worldwide, with its incidence increasing, affecting 10% of couples who want to conceive their first child and between 10-25% of those who want to have a second child. The European Parliament's report on the future demographic of Europe (2007/2156 (INI)) highlights the need to consider infertility as a sensitive and important issue for consideration in articles 25 and 26. The…

Normal vs. strike-slip faulting during rift development in East Africa: The Malawi rift

1992

Kinematic analysis of Neogene and Quaternary faults demonstrates that the direction of extension in the Malawi rift rotated from east-northeast to southeast. Rift development commenced with the formation of half-grabens bounded by northwest-, north-, and northeast-striking normal faults. Owing to slightly oblique rifting, the northwest-striking faults in the northernmost rift segment show a small dextral oblique-slip component, whereas north- and northeast-oriented faults in the central part of the rift display a sinistral oblique-slip component. This first event resulted in block faulting and basin subsidence, which is largely responsible for the present-day basin morphology of Lake Malawi…

Adherence to the Mediterranean diet is associated with better quality of life: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative

2016

BACKGROUND The Mediterranean diet has positively influenced various medical conditions, but only a paucity of studies has considered the relation between the Mediterranean diet and quality of life (QOL) among people living in North America. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether a higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet (aMED) was associated with better QOL and decreased pain, stiffness, disability, and depression in a large cohort of North Americans from the Osteoarthritis Initiative. DESIGN aMED was evaluated through a validated Mediterranean diet score categorized into quintiles. Outcomes of interest were QOL [assessed with the 12-Item Short-Form Health Outcome Survey (SF-12)]; disability,…

Woman entrepreneur and social entrepreneurship

The scope of MEYES is women entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship. In the 1980s, the first studies on women entrepreneurs emerged, highlighting the differences between female and male entrepreneurs: business characteristics, motivations for engaging in entrepreneurial activities, assessment of the main obstacles in starting and developing a business, personal traits, management styles, or chosen industry sectors. These differences justify studying women entrepreneurs independently from conventional or standard business theory, which compares female entrepreneurs to their male counterparts. In this sense, the use of male values, ways of thinking, and acting in the analysis of female e…
