Agreement on the charges for staying at a nursing home in the case law of administrative courtsThis paper is devoted to the issue of concluding an agreement on the charges for staying at a nursing home in the case law of administrative courts. The debated issue is based on a very extensive case law and against this background the most important problems are discussed. The first problem concerns the sources and forms of participation in the cost of maintaining a person in a social welfare home. In the case law of administrative courts a prevailing view is that law is the source. Other opinion says that the source is an administrative decision. The second opinion cannot be accepted. The views…

The ingreso mínimo vital and the right to social assistance of the european social charter

2021

En este artículo se analiza el Ingreso Mínimo Vital (IMV) desde la perspectiva de los derechos humanos y, en concreto, desde los estándares exigidos por el derecho a la asistencia social reconocido en la Carta Social Europea. El objetivo es valorar si el IMV cumple o no con las exigencias del derecho a la asistencia social tal y como ha sido reconocido en el artículo 13 de la Carta Social Europea, de acuerdo con la doctrina consolidada del Comité Europeo de Derechos Sociales del Consejo de Europa. El análisis de la regulación del IMV teniendo en cuenta las implicaciones de este derecho permite concluir que, a pesar de los importantes avances realizados, algunas mejoras son todavía necesaria…

The role of extrinsic and intrinsic factors on departure decisions of a long-distance migratory passerine

2013

[EN] Factors determining departure decisions of migrants from a stopover site can be extrinsic and/or intrinsic but the relative role of each of these factors on departure decisions is still poorly known. Date and wind should be the main factors determining departure decisions in a long-distance migrant, which is expected to minimise duration of migration. Date was considered as an intrinsic factor and wind as an extrinsic one. We analysed the capture-recapture data of a long-distance migrant European songbird, the sedge warbler Acrocephalus schoenobaenus,from a stopover site in northern Iberia during the autumn migration period to quantify the relative importance of several factors on emig…

La lotta alla disoccupazione e alla povertà nell’esperienza della Società Umanitaria di Milano (1893-1915)

2018

This paper focuses on the crucial role played by the Humanitarian Society of Milan in combating poverty and unemployment, mainly in the transition from a traditional concept of assistance, which was private and confessional, to a more modern idea of public assistance, inspired by secular, liberal and socialist reformism.

A Semiotic Approach to the Design of Non-speech Sounds

2006

In the field of auditory display there is currently a lack of theoretical support for the design of non-speech sounds as elements of a user interface. Sound design methods are often based on ad hoc choices or the personal preferences of the designer. A method is proposed in this paper based on a semiotic approach to the design of non-speech sounds. In this approach, the design process is conceptualised by referring to structural semiotics, acknowledging the unique qualities of non-speech sounds, as a mode of conveying information. This method is based on a rich use scenario presented to a design panel. A case study where the design method has been applied is presented and evaluated. Finally…

Couplage visuo-haptique en environnement de conduite simulée

2012

Our visual-haptic system is requested as soon as our arms interact with our external environment. There is a coupling between visual and haptic modalities, so that the central nervous system takes in account the reliability and accuracy of both modalities in order to weigh their influence in the visual-haptic integration. Thus there is a rebalancing of the weight of each modality in the context of the visual-haptic solicitation. Typically, psychophysical studies implement short and repeated tasks, with or without sensory conflict, to understand the mechanisms underlying the visual-haptic coupling. Applied in our context, this method is excluded because we have to maintain the ecological cha…

Peer effects in the light of students interactions and the subjective dimensions of school experience

2011

This Thesis addresses the issue of peer-effects in the context of school. From analysis of a large database produced by a Chilean national study (SIMCE 2004), this work investigates the mechanisms through which pupils with different levels of scholastic, human and cultural capital influence each other. These influences seem present for a diverse range of school outcomes, including academic achievement. Drawing on the literature produced by different disciplinary approaches —sociology, economics, social psychology and education— the study focuses on ways of identifying and measuring peer-effects. The presence of subjective dimensions capable of reflecting, in part, the school experience of p…
