A motivation-based typology of media companies’ cross-border engagement
2019
This article contributes to theoretical discussions in the field of transnational media management research. We argue that investigating media companies’ activities abroad from a strategy-as-practice perspective can overcome shortcomings implied in research predominantly focusing on strategies applied by entire companies. This is especially valid in times of digitization where changing technological frameworks force media companies to internationalize and restructure their business models. Based on a comparative qualitative analysis of interviews with 34 international senior media managers, this article provides a typology of cross-border activities related to three types of motivations: e…
Tipos de organizaciones deportivas en España
2018
El deporte ha sido considerado un fenómeno de masas con un trascendental poder de seguimiento y congregación, aportando un importante valor económico y social. Hoy en día, en España nos encontramos en un entorno cambiante, en el que las demandas y necesidades de la población son cada vez más diversas, teniendo como consecuencia una obligatoria adaptación y versatilidad por parte de las organizaciones. Dichos cambios estructurales, funcionales y organizativos requieren de una sostenibilidad, tanto de las instalaciones deportivas como de los servicios ofertados. Este hecho cada vez se hace más complicado, por lo que el concepto tradicional de organización deportiva ha ido cambiando. En este e…
Translation history: audiences, collaboration and interdisciplinarity
2013
Translation history constitutes a huge field of research where methods, theories, research questions and topics vary widely. One important question here is who we write history to (who is our addressee) and what kind of an impact the perceived audience has on the ways of writing history. In the case of academic audiences, an audience often is also a partner in research collaboration. However, there are other audiences outside the academia as well. In this article, I will illustrate the issue of audiences and interdisciplinarity through describing the work done in translation historiography in Finland. There have been scholars and writers from different academic disciplines and orientations …
Bourdieu and public service interpreting and translation: towards a social theory in PSIT
2010
Within Translation Studies (TS), Public Service Interpreting and Translation (PSIT) is a relatively recent area (Critical Link 1995) still fighting for academic and professional recognition inside and outside the limits of that discipline. The growing interest in PSIT is undoubtedly linked to the migration phenomenon and the intervention of intermediaries (interpreters and translators) who make communication possible is generally recognised. But the controversy about the role(s) these intermediaries have to perform in public services seems to be one of the main difficulties to obtain academic and institutional acceptance and recognition. Following the influence of Bourdieu's social theory i…
Violencia y género en la literatura de internado femenina en lengua alemana
2021
A principios del siglo XIX, la sociedad se expande a nivel demográfico, político e ideológico y en ella tiene lugar un cambio en los sistemas de poder. Las clases dominantes reclaman el control de los “campos sociales” con el fin de legitimar y perpetuar la integridad de las relaciones de desigualdad que las convierten en superiores. La naturaleza de las injusticias surge a través de la mutación de un castigo físico hacia una violencia simbólica, que asegura su perpetuación controlando el campo de la institución educativa. Esta situación prende la mecha social que permea en el ámbito de la literatura y representa al internado como fruto de las relaciones de poder. Mediante el estudio de la …
Feminist Perspectives on Teaching Masculinities
2019
The chapter discusses the positive public role of gay and queer masculinities in their intersection with other identity configurations (class, race, and able-bodiedness). It presents an overview of the main perspectives on social construction and representation of homosexual masculinities within educational and academic settings using critical masculinities theory. While challenging homonormativity in research and education representations of the ‘rational man’ and ‘macho ethics’ of male researchers who ‘discover’, ‘conquer’ investigate ‘systematically’ or ‘rigorously’ are analyzed. Criticizing the play of inexpressiveness and emotionlessness objectivity as criterion of academic writing, re…
The influence of EU policy on local policy-making, governance and urban change. Evidence from Porto, Portugal
2021
Porto has long been a site of experimentation in the field of European urban policies, implemented through different initiatives and supported by EU funding. The paper describes the different urban regeneration experiences that have been undertaken by the city, analyses the nature of the policy instruments which have been implemented, and in what ways they relate to local policy-making, governance and development. What emerges from this analysis is a more complex perspective of the relationship between local/national/European policies, which needs a broader understanding of local processes to understand the emergence and transfer of the holistic approach promoted by the EU.
Introduction: On the Complex Ecology of Language Learning ‘in the Wild’
2019
This introduction explicates the central issues informing the chapters in the volume. We outline the epistemological development of Second Language Acquisition research as it has evolved from being predominantly individual-cognitive to a more pluralistic endeavor in which social approaches to cognition and learning are becoming central. Social interaction has been recognized as key to language learning since the 1970’s but the field is still lacking in research that studies the everyday social-interactional ecology in which the L2 speaker acts. We argue that it is time to broaden contexts for empirical investigations to study language learning in the full ecology of ‘the wild’, that is, in …

El legado de las voces y los escritos: su valor como testimonio de la cultura escolar
2020
ABSTRACT The article analyzes the ways by which the voices and writings from the past, both those that have reached us as those that we still can obtain from living people, may contribute in a special way to the knowledge and interpretation of school culture from the past. We argue they make a very important and valuable historical and educational heritage, which must be saved and availed. The potentialities and values of these resources, "egodocuments", are indicated through it, and also their problems, as well as the limitations and cautions to be considerated by the researcher. Several aspects are reviewed and analyzed through the entire work: the “testimonies”' value as an object of int…
