Predictive Variables of Adolescents' Intention to Be Physically Active after Graduation. Is Gender a Conditioning Factor?
2020
The acquisition of physical activity habits during adolescence is fundamental to guarantee its adherence throughout life. However, these levels decrease during this stage, with women experimenting a more significant decrease. This paper aims to analyze if there are significant differences in the variables related to the intention to be physically active between men and women and if there is a moderating effect of gender on the variables that predict this intention. The sample is composed of 256 adolescents, aged between 16 and 19 years, 55.50% of whom are men, and 44.50% women. The results show that there are statistically significant differences (p <
Indisponibilità dei diritti fondamentali: un problema di interpretazione
2018
In this article, I will argue that a liberal-egalitarian theory can easily justify the fact that the holder of a fundamental right cannot legitimately transfer or surrender a fundamental right. A liberal-egalitarian theory can justify the fact the exercise of a fundamental right is mandatory, when what is protected is a real interest of the right holder, like the rights of workers to wages or paid holidays. On the contrary, a liberalegalitarian theory is incompatible with the fact that the exercise of the fundamental right is considered mandatory, the holder must exercise the right, when the interest protected is an ideal or objective interest, like the objective value of life, not a real o…
Rethinking Monetary Policy with Reference to Monetary Circuit Theory
2011
Standard monetary policy is grounded in the quantity theory of money, which links changes in the general price level to excess money that would induce excess demand on the goods market. This article shows that this theoretical foundation is misleading and harmful to growth. This is so because price determination is multifaceted. Central banks, especially the European Central Bank, currently tighten credit conditions whereas money is not an issue. In this way, they act not only on demand but also on the supply of goods. The additional reference made to rational expectations is an aggravating factor. Is there another way to conduct monetary policy? In this article it is argued that circuit th…
The P* model and its performance for the Spanish economy
2000
The performance of the P∗ model is tested as an inflation forecaster for the Spanish economy. It is shown that log-run relationships work as expected according to the model and the Quantitative Theory of Money. The Error Correction Model constructed by using the gap between actual prices and the long-term equilibrium price level as an error correction term, offers a consistent explanation for the short-run dynamics in prices. On the other hand, the P∗ approach shows a forecasting ability similar to that presented for other countries in several studies, although the degree of accuracy in the prediction is not specially satisfactory, mainly for the period 1989:3- 1992:3, when the credibility …
Deficit sustainability and inflation in EMU: An analysis from the Fiscal Theory of the Price Level
2007
Price determination theory typically focuses on the role of monetary policy, while the role of fiscal policy is usually neglected. From a different point of view, the Fiscal Theory of the Price Level takes into account monetary and fiscal policy interactions and assumes that fiscal policy may determine the price level, even if monetary authorities pursue an inflation targeting strategy. In this paper we try to test empirically whether the time path of the government budget in EMU countries would have affected price level determination. Our results point to the sustainability of fiscal policy in all the EMU countries but Finland, although no firm conclusions can be drawn about the prevalence…
INTEGRACIÓN SOCIAL, DERECHO A LA DIFERENCIA Y RELACIONES JURÍDICO-PRIVADAS INTERNACIONALES
2011
RESUMEN. En las actuales sociedades multiculturales, el gran reto es la convivencia pacífica entre las personas extranjeras e inmigrantes y la población autóctona a través del reconocimiento del “derecho a la diferencia”, para conseguir una verdadera igualdad jurídica en derechos. En este contexto, el nuevo DIPr de la inmigración desempeña una nueva función basada en el diálogo (ius communicationis) entre los distintos ordenamientos en presencia, interpretando sus normas (de conflicto) a través del “método de reconocimiento”, que consiste en considerar que el principio de la integración social es una función del referido sistema, de tal forma que se logre el reconocimiento de las relacione…
Menores criados por sus abuelas. Mejora de la pautas de cuidado a menores en acogimiento familiar en familia extensa a través de un programa de inter…
2011
[EN] In this research we have tried to describe the fostering kinship with grandparents as an alternative to living together in cases in which parents cannot play or stop playing their roles of main caregivers of their own children. This diversity ranges from multiproblematical and risky families, in which the situations of neglect and unprotection of minors prevail, to the care of minors due to more normalized causes (like parents death, divorce, etc.) The impact of this family situation on grandparents requires an special attention, due to problems related to the restructuring of roles, i.e. turning grandparents into substitute parents. The prevention of the emergence of negative conseque…
El caso de los tiradores del Muro de Berlín. A vueltas con algunos debates clásicos de la Filosofía del Derecho del siglo XX
2011
RESUMEN Es artículo analiza el caso de los centinelas del muro de Berlín que disparaban y mataron a algunas personas –que querían pasar la frontera-, amparados por una interpretación del Derecho de la RDA. Algunos años después de la unificación alemana, el Tribunal Constitucional condenó aquellos soldados por asesinato con el argumento que se trataba de Derecho “extremadamente injusto”. Esta es una forma particular de aplicación de la fórmula de Radburch. El objetivo de este artículo es estudiar el caso de los centinelas del Muro de Berlín bajo la perspectiva del la Filosofía del Derecho, particularmente en la controversia entre positivismo y iusnaturalismo. En este sentido, se comparan l…
Jueces y «control de calidad» de los sistemas políticos
2007
Maria.J.Anon@uv.es Este artículo trata de analizar la tesis normativa que atribuye a los jueces la función de garantía de la estabilidad de los sistemas políticos, examen que se lleva a cabo en dos planos. En primer lugar, realizo una valoración de la contribución de la regla de reconocimiento a la identidad y a la legitimidad de los sistemas jurídicos. Planteo, después, la idea de que el rasgo distintivo de la función judicial desde un punto de vista institucional y normativo no es tanto el mantenimiento de la estabilidad del orden político cuanto la garantía de los derechos, subrayando las limitaciones de la tesis analizada en este artículo en contextos de transformación del orden jurídic…
Le siège de l'arbitrage international
2021
In international matters, the arbitral tribunal has no choice but to settle in the territory of a State in order to render its award. The choice of this "host State" would then determine the seat of international arbitration. But what choice do we make? How? By whom ? What to do in case of uncertainty of this choice? What effects will this determination then have in creating the tribunal, in rendering and enforcing its award, or in choosing the applicable laws? There is no single answer to these simple questions. Indeed, international arbitration law attaches varying importance to the notion of seat, in the sense that it will depend primarily on one's vision of the place and source of arbit…
