La inclusion social, por su parte y para la Union Europea, se define como «un proceso que garantiza que las personas amenazadas de pobreza y exclusion social, pueden acceder a los recursos necesarios para participar, plenamente, en la vida economica, social y cultural, y que gozan de un…
El futur de la psicologia
2008
Ni que siga per consolidar i excel·lir els avanços aconseguits 'també en l'àmbit de la nostra ciència, la Psicologia', convé mirar al futur, tal com l'autor de la present col·laboració postula. I això amb perspectiva integradora i comunitària, recuperant l'harmonització de les ciències i de la vida mateixa, en forma de trilogia dels factors 'investigació, mediació computacional i tribut a la societat'.

Del capital humano al capital social: estrategias de prevención del consumo de alcohol
2006
La riqueza de una nación ya no se identifica exclusivamente con sus dotaciones económicas y sus recursos naturales, sino que también integra otras dos formas de capital: humano y social. De hecho, una comunidad rica seria aquella que simultáneamente y de manera equilibrada, incrementa sus cuotas en estos cuatro recursos. Por tanto, dada la importancia del capital humano y social en el desarrollo económico sostenible, es necesario ahondar en su relación de complementariedad. La formación de ambos capitales depende de un conjunto amplio de factores interrelacionados entre los que destacamos la importancia del sistema educativo y de la salud poblacional. Las condiciones y los comportamientos d…

Absorptive Capacity and Social Capital: Innovation and Environmental Regulation
2010
Norwegian paper and pulp mills are subject to strict environmental regulation. The mills conduct research and development for reducing pollution. Absorptive capacity indicates their competence. Firms are part of a social network of connections with external actors that include other paper and pulp mills, suppliers, customers, research institutes, and universities that help them in developing technologies. These relations represent their social capital. Some firms have access to more and better resources than other firms. Measuring firms’ absorptive capacity and access to social capital, we analyze their success in reducing pollution levels. There is a strong interaction effect between absor…
Abusivismo e capitale sociale
2007
Unauthorized building is mostly concentrated in the southern regions of Italy and regards every social class. It often involves political interests at election times. Due to the distinctiveness of its distribution on the Italian territory, unauthorised building raises complex issues of a sociological, anthropological, political and legal nature concerning public spirit, the relationship that the citizen has with institutions and with lawfulness, the means through which political consensus is aggregated, and the capacity of the state to ensure governance through laws. Agrigento is an emblematic case, not only because of the diffusion of the phenomenon over time and space, or for the relevanc…
The influence of conditional conservatism on ownership dispersion: An international analysis
2013
ABSTRACTWe study the influence of conditional accounting conservatism on domestic investor diversification decisions. We argue that a conservative accounting system that promotes the dissemination of bad news and which constrains managers from engaging in opportunistic activities reduces the need for investors to concentrate their ownership, and consequently helps investors to diversify their investments. Through a country-level analysis we show that increased domestic conditional conservatism and higher domestic diversification opportunities lead to higher levels of domestic ownership diversification. Our results are robust to alternative estimates of conditional conservatism, and indicate…
