Transformative Policies for the Social and Solidarity Economy: The New Generation of Public Policies Fostering the Social Economy in Order to Achieve…

2020

The United Nations Agenda 2030 has recognized that Social Economy (SE) entities play an important role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). In order to maximize the impact of the SE, governments have recently deployed new policies regarding these entities. The objective is to understand the context of policy change that has allowed these policies to emerge, their main characteristics and the critical factors in their construction and implementation. Successful policy cases in Europe and Spain have been studied. Qualitative data have been collected through key policy documents, experts, and focus groups. As a main finding, the study shows that this new model of policies exhi…

Penyagolosa Trails: From Ancestral Roads to Sustainable Ultra-Trail Race, between Spirituality, Nature, and Sports. A Case of Study

2019

[EN] The organization of an open-air sporting event involves a series of challenges. People are drawn by the desire to do sport, preferably in close contact with nature, so as to complement healthy lifestyles, and in search of air purity. Sporting organizations are increasingly searching for new locations that do not only attract athletes, but spectators and companions too. Races in natural parks provide the additional benefit of doing sport in a unique space, usually a transmitter of simplicity, pure air, and tranquillity. Organizing a mountain race in a natural park implies some issues. These are areas of great environmental richness that must be protected. Natural parks are places of ind…

Growth and Electrochemical Performance of Lead and Lead Oxide Nanowire Arrays as Electrodes for Lead-Acid Batteries

2013

n this work, we present the growth and electrochemical performance of nanostructured lead and lead oxide electrodes for lead-acid batteries. The electrodes were obtained by template electrodeposition in polycarbonate membranes, acting as template. Electrochemical tests were conducted at constant current in 5M aqueous solution of sulphuric acid, after assembling nanostructured lead and lead oxide electrodes in a zero-gap configuration using a commercially available separator. The main advantages of these electrodes are the high specific energy and power density, and the wide surface area, about 70 times higher than the geometrical one. These features allowed high discharge rates, up to 20C. …

Towards a sustainable leader-follower relationship: constructive dissensus, organizational virtuousness and happiness at work (haw)

2020

This paper examines how leaders and followers can interact positively under complex and bounded conditions. For this purpose, this paper conceptualizes and measures the concept of constructive dissensus. Constructive dissensus relates to a mutual understanding leading to a situation of coregulation. In addition, the relationship between constructive dissensus and happiness at work is examined on the basis of affective events theory. Furthermore, the mediating role of organizational virtuousness is assessed. Through structural equation modeling, a multilevel analysis was performed. Data from 130 bank branches and 606 employees were gathered. The results reveal a direct effect of constructive…

A Framework of Professional Transferable Competences for System Innovation: Enabling Leadership and Agency for Sustainable Development

2021

System Innovation (SI) is a critical approach in driving individual and collective actions towards sustainable development (SD). This article presents the validation process of the Climate-KIC Professional Competence Framework (CF) for SI. This framework is based on principles of system thinking and the need for human capital to deal with challenges related to long-term sustainability. It comprises twenty competences grouped into five stages that describe contexts where professionals implement transformations: Exploring, Framing, Designing, Implementing and Strengthening. The stages are not linear or strictly sequential because overlapping and loops are frequent in transformational and disr…

Loanheitosta viivytystaisteluun : Kansallinen Kokoomus, Aamulehti, Maalaisliitto ja Urho Kekkonen 1954 - 1959

2013

Tutkimuksessa käsitellään Kansallisen Kokoomuksen, Aamulehden, Maalaisliiton ja Urho Kekkosen suhteita vuosina 1954 – 1959. Ydinkysymys työssä on, kuinka eri osapuolten väliset suhteet muuttuivat tutkittavana ajankohtana. Mitkä seikat vaikuttivat tapahtuneisiin muutoksiin, mitä osapuolet tekivät niitä kehittääkseen, minkälaiseen tilaan ne jäivät tutkimusjakson päättyessä ja miltä niiden tulevaisuus näytti ennen kaikkea Kansallisen Kokoomuksen näkökulmasta? Tutkimuksessa haetaan vertailevilla ja useammalla lähdekriittisellä tutkimusmenetelmällä vastausta kysymykseen, kuinka kokoomuksen tamperelaisen äänenkannattajan suhtautuminen eri osapuoliin erosi muusta lehdistöstämme, eritoten kokoomuks…

An Exploratory Analysis of Factors Associated with Health-Related Physical Fitness in Adolescents. The ASSO Project

2018

Monitoring physical fitness (fitness) and identifying, since the beginning, possible determinants in youth could be useful to preserve health and avoid morbidities in adulthood. The main objective of this study is to provide details on the fitness levels of a sample of adolescents living in the Southern area of Italy and describe its associations with biological/genetic, socio-cultural/environmental, and lifestyle (physical activity/sedentariness, alcohol/smoking, meal patterns/habits) factors. The study was conducted within the Adolescence Surveillance System for Obesity Prevention (ASSO) project, funded by the Italian Ministry of Health and examining adolescents&rsquo

Obywatel a władza lokalna w pierwszym powojennym dziesięcioleciu na przykładzie gminy Kościeliska

2015

Artykuł poświęcony jest relacjom między władzą lokalną a obywatelem w pierwszym powojennym dziesięcioleciu w gminie Kościeliska, pow. oleski. Na początku autor charakteryzuje gminę, następnie podaje przykłady tych relacji na tle ówczesnej sytuacji politycznej, społecznej i gospodarczej. Najwięcej uwagi poświęca udziałowi i zaangażowaniu obywateli w działalność silnie upartyjnionych organów władzy lokalnej oraz w podejmowanych przez władze gminne wysiłkom na rzecz rozwiązania trudnych problemów społecznych i gospodarczych, z którymi borykała się ludność gminy. Władze gminne miały jednak ograniczone możliwości rozwiązania tych problemów, co skutkowało bardzo złymi nastrojami społecznymi, któr…
