Making Telescopes and Partying with the Stars: Amateur Astronomy in Spain during Franco’s Dictatorship
2016
Franco’s dictatorship was characterized by an official narrative that criminalized the liberal tradition of previous periods. Such a discourse defined an ideologically correct science that censured the subordination of Spanish science to foreign influence and sought to create a new scientific tradition. However, recent studies have revised these aims and suggest that there was a continuity of scientific and technological programmes and practices before and after the Spanish Civil War. This paper contributes to these investigations with further evidence, focusing on several practices that characterized the development of amateur astronomy during this period. Special attention is paid to the…
Phonological precision for word recognition in skilled readers
2019
According to the lexical quality hypothesis (Perfetti, 2007), differences in the orthographic, semantic, and phonological representations of words will affect individual reading performance. Whilst several studies have focused on orthographic precision and semantic coherence, few have considered phonological precision. The present study used a suite of individual difference measures to assess which components of lexical quality contributed to competition resolution in a masked priming experiment. The experiment measured form priming for word and pseudoword targets with dense and sparse neighbourhoods in 84 university students. Individual difference measures of language and cognitive skills …

Political Scientist Reads Gramsci: From Hegemony to teh Political
2015
In this paper I want to show, the Antonio Gramsci’s arrangements, Italian Marxist, are very actual analysis of political process and phenomenon, which can be very significant tip and inspiration for the political researchers. The argument of this paper is about a kind of continuity between process of establishing hegemony and notice what the political (beyond the strictly policy). Analyzing this continuity, I want to do some kind of “political science transcription” of Gramsci, which I hope will result in more detailed research. Also I want to show the Gramsci’s profile as a political theoretist.
Análisis de las experiencias de presupuesto participativo de la Comunitat Valenciana a través de una taxonomía
2021
Después de casi treinta años de una de las experiencias de participación más innovadoras, al incluir en el proceso de decisión presupuestaria al ciudadano común, el Orçamento Participativo de Porto Alegre (Brasil) se ha paralizado y comienza a plantearse su futuro. Esta práctica que se inició con mucha euforia y esperanza (que se apreciaba incluso en las reflexiones académicas sobre ella), ha ido perdiendo a lo largo del tiempo impulso y adhesión en Brasil y, recientemente, ha empezado a cuestionarse su efectividad e impacto. En los últimos trabajos colectivos publicados en Brasil (Pires et al., 2011; Lavalle, 2011) se explica lo que empírica e intuitivamente ya se venía sospechando: no es …
International student mobility in Southern-Latin Europe: beyond the EU logics, towards a new space
2018
This paper discusses international student mobility (ISM) in Southern-Latin Europe, specifically Italy, Portugal, and Spain, analysing the inflow of international students as reflected in the UNESCO, OECD and European Commission databases. Only recently Italy, Portugal and Spain, as latecomers, have become more actively involved in ISM dynamics. This trend has been a response to EU pressures to internationalization, instrumented through the consolidation of the Bologna process and the need to build a common space of higher education. The analysis shows that at the intra-European level Italy, Portugal and Spain share similar ISM patterns; however, in the global context other logics shape ISM…
The discoursive research orientation and its marxist inspiration
2014
Questions about the specifics of bulding of socio-political sphere phenomenon, lied at the dawn of countless attempts of systematization of knowledge over this subject, and of constructing the axioms, responding to efforts to enucleate of algorithm, ruling the dynamics of this sphere. One of such examples is discoursive research orientation. It was an effect of series of transformations inside social sciences during XXth century. Nonetheless, its program was not completely utilized by researchers achivements. I would like to express the conviction that primary catalogue of inspirations derives from rich achivements of Marxist thought. As node points of those considerations I take four inspi…
On Simon Nelson Patten’s Progressivism: A note
2020
This article is an attempt to offer an assessment of the main coordinates of Simon Nelson Patten’s views on democracy and biological determinism. This will allow us to better delineate the differences—as well as the affinities—between Patten and the core of progressives discussed by Thomas C. Leonard in a series of path-breaking contributions, culminating in his Illiberal Reformers: Race, Eugenics, and American Economics in the Progressive Era. It is our contention that even within the persisting intricacies, ambiguities, and contradictions of Patten’s expository style, it is possible to trace a shift in some aspects of his ideas—a gradual evolution that makes his peculiar brand of progress…
Polish zombie-proletariat. Political recomposition of class
2014
The main goal of the paper is to show, that Marxist vocabulary can still be relevant in the debate on Polish transition and helpful to establish new recomposition of the working class, that will be more effective as political subject. Political recomposition of proletariat is treated here as a main condition of ability for Polish society to make history it’s own subject again. The paper also contains: some methodological insights on the conditions of Marxism’s relevancy today; overview of some narratives on Polish transition from Marxist perspective; and my own proposal to treat the transition as a part of new wave of global enclosures, which is the essence of neoliberalism.
