En torno a 1898: Las oposiciones a la Restauración
1998
En este artículo se estudia el fracaso en España del proceso de legitimación democrática de la monarquía constitucional en la última década del siglo XIX. La atención se centra en la relación entre las élites gobernantes y las fuerzas de oposición, los objetivos de éstas y la ausencia de un profundo debate político entre gobierno y oposición.
Expansion cone for the 3-inch PMTs of the KM3NeT optical modules
2013
[EN] Detection of high-energy neutrinos from distant astrophysical sources will open a new window on the Universe. The detection principle exploits the measurement of Cherenkov light emitted by charged particles resulting from neutrino interactions in the matter containing the telescope. A novel multi-PMT digital optical module (DOM) was developed to contain 31 3-inch photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). In order to maximize the detector sensitivity, each PMT will be surrounded by an expansion cone which collects photons that would otherwise miss the photocathode. Results for various angles of incidence with respect to the PMT surface indicate an increase in collection efficiency by 30% on average…
The taint of torture and the brazilian legal system
2019
In Brazil, the practice of torture intertwines deeply with its own history. The literature on the subject has had a greater intensification on its registers during the Dictatorial Regime (1964 to 1985). In spite of the Brazilian Constitution of 1988, Brazil only makes efforts to investigate the crimes of torture of this period to comply with the provisions of the United Nations in 2011. Within this scenario, the NationalTruth Commission (Law 12.528, of November 2011) was created with the purpose of clarifying the facts and circumstances of cases concerning human rights violations, as well as the Law on Access to Information (Law 12.527 of November 2011), which have regulated the constitutio…
Algorithms, artificial intelligence and automated decisions concerning workers and the risks of discrimination: the necessary collective governance o…
2019
Big data, algorithms and artificial intelligence now allow employers to process information on their employees and potential employees in a far more efficient manner and at a much lower cost than in the past. This makes it possible to profile workers automatically and even allows technology itself to replace human resources personnel in making decisions that have legal effects on employees (recruitment, promotion, dismissals, etc.). This entails great risks of worker discrimination and defencelessness, with workers unaware of the reasons underlying any such decision. This article analyses the protections established in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for safeguarding emplo…
The evaluation of workers by customers as a method of control and monitoring in firms: Digital reputation and the European Union's General Data Prote…
2021
As a method of surveillance and monitoring, the evaluation of workers by customers and employers and the disclosure of the results pose a series of challenges for the current legal framework of the European Union (EU). Employees subject to such evaluations are exposed to a far more intense and wider degree of monitoring of their work than traditional workers. The phenomenon arises from the adoption of a customer perspective, seeking to make work observable at all times, without any cost to firms. In this light, the author analyses the EU's General Data Protection Regulation, which establishes very specific restrictions when requesting and disclosing information about workers.
Muscle activation during push-ups performed under stable and unstable conditions
2015
Background/Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze muscle activation when performing push-ups under different stability conditions. Methods: Physically fit young male university students (N = 30) performed five push-ups under stable conditions (on the floor) and using four unstable devices (wobble board, stability disc, fitness dome, and the TRX Suspension Trainer). The push-up speed was controlled using a metronome, and the testing order was randomized. The average amplitudes of the electromyographic (EMG) root mean square of the anterior deltoid (DELT), serratus anterior (SERRA), lumbar multifidus (LUMB), and rectus femoris (FEM) were recorded. The electromyographic signals we…
Orveliskie motīvi Haruki Murakami darbā „1Q84”
2017
Šī darba izstrādes gaitā autors ir veicis pētījumu par angļu literatūras klasiķa Džordža Orvela romāna „1984” ietekmi uz populārā mūsdienu japāņu autora Haruki Murakami sarakstīto romānu „1Q84”. Darbā tiek izmantotas salīdzināšanas un analīzes metodes, ar kuru palīdzību tiek tuvāk pētīti galvenie motīvi, kas parādās abos literārajos darbos. Mūsdienās sabiedrība pievērš arvien lielāku uzmanību tādām tēmām kā propaganda un dažādas valsts vadīšanas sistēmas, tāpēc šie abu autoru romāni ir kļuvuši ļoti aktuāli un tajos ir negaidītas analoģijas ar mūsdienu pasaulē notiekošo. Darbā tiek tuvāk izklāstīta arī abu autoru biogrāfija un literārā darbība. Pēc tam tiek veikta tekstu analīze un salīdzinā…
