El artículo 18 del estatuto de los trabajadores italiano a la luz de las últimas reformas laborales
2015
En las siguientes líneas se realizará un somero repaso sobre las principales las modificaciones de la disciplina italiana de los despidos individuales recogida en el artículo 18 del Estatuto de los Trabajadores italiano, introducidas por las últimas reformas laborales. En ellas se constará el impacto de dichas reformas en el cuadro legislativo de referencia, viéndose reducida la posibilidad de readmisión del trabajador en el caso de despido individual improcedente. Además se harán unos apuntes críticos sobre el concepto de flexsecurity, de cual se destaca una gran inflación en el presente contexto de crisis económica. This paper examines the amendments made to the Italian regulation of indi…
Crisis económica y desarrollo metropolitano. Una propuesta de investigación
2015
[EN] The metropolitan areas have undergone deep transformations linked to neo-liberal globalization, whose effects have been disseminated with uneven intensity depending on their specific local paths. The current economic crisis and the austerity policies applied in the European periphery shows their contradictions and causes new social and spatial asymmetries that are best reflected in these large urban areas, modifying their development paths. This paper proposes an interpretation on the territorial dimension of the economic crisis, discusses some of its main metropolitan manifestations and proposes various lines of research. The effect of the financialisation in the production of urban s…
El carácter contingente de las elecciones y la experiencia universitaria : riesgo y origen social
2021
Este trabajo pretende estudiar la experiencia de los estudiantes universitarios de origen social bajo en un contexto de incremento de las dificultades económicas y de endurecimiento de las condiciones institucionales en la universidad. Los momentos que se analizan son: la elección de estudios que realizan estos jóvenes, las condiciones de su paso por la universidad y su proyección de futuro en relación con las decisiones próximas que prevén tomar. Para ello se analizan entrevistas hechas a estudiantes de diferentes universidades catalanas y andaluzas. Entre los jóvenes de origen social bajo se detecta un estilo evitador del riesgo muy consciente de los obstáculos que, en un marco de incerti…
El Gran rescate de la prensa española: los anticipos reintegrables durante la Primera Guerra Mundial
2021
Resumen La crisis económica que se derivó de la Primera Guerra Mundial provocó, entre otros efectos, la caída aguda de los resultados económicos de la prensa española y una amenaza real de colapso generalizado. Reconvertida a grandes empresas, con exponentes como el primer trust periodístico español, creado en 1906, los editores de periódicos plantearon por primera vez un dilema clave para el sistema representativo: si se quería que existiese prensa, el tesoro público debía colaborar mediante subvenciones a la compra de papel. Se puso en marcha, de esta forma, el primer gran rescate de la prensa española, con una aportación millonaria de dinero público a empresas privadas que, en teoría, te…
HARVARD MEETS THE CRISIS: THE MONETARY THEORY AND POLICY OF LAUCHLIN B. CURRIE, JACOB VINER, JOHN H. WILLIAMS, AND HARRY D. WHITE
2015
The paper discusses the interpretation of the Great Depression and the policy decision making by four Harvard economists: Lauchlin B. Currie, Jacob Viner, John H. Williams, and Harry D. White. All were eminent scholars in the field of monetary and international economics, and were deeply involved in policy decisions during the New Deal. We will discuss how their Harvard training provided them with a common methodological and analytical perspective, and how this common perspective translated into specific policies when they moved from the academia to public service in the US administration. Their interpretation of the causes of the Great Depression and their policy proposals show the eclecti…
Circumventing deadlock through venue-shopping: Why there is more than just talk in US immigration politics in times of economic crisis
2016
This article addresses the question of how the financial and economic crisis that hit the US in the late 2000s impacted immigration policies. We find that the crisis has not significantly changed dynamics. Instead, it has highlighted and aggravated persisting trends. Drawing on Kingdon’s multiple streams model and combining it with the notion of two-level games, we find that while the policy stream and the problem stream would call for both restrictive and liberalising changes, the political stream impedes change: The fact that Congress has been divided for a long time over Comprehensive Immigration Reform (CIR) impedes any restrictive or liberalising changes. With problems resulting from c…
Statistical Analysis of the Indicators that have Influenced the Standard of Living in Romania During the Economic Crisis
2015
Abstract As all the countries in the world, Romania is going through a period of large and deep economic, financial and social changes. The negative effects of the economic crisis are well known: Increase of unemployment rate, sharp decrease of incomes because of the imposed political measures and decrease of purchasing power resulting in a decrease of the quality of life. The quality of life may be assessed based on several macroeconomic indicators, such as: GD per capita, population incomes or expenses, population consumption, indicators that are the foundation of the analyses that may help taking decisions regarding the social and economic policies aimed to the increase of the standard o…
The Impact of Credit on Economic Growth in the Global Crisis Context
2013
Abstract Is there a connection between credit and economic growth in the present economic context? Credit was one of the factors which triggered the global crisis, thus, in the present paper we attempt to show whether there is a connection between credit and economic growth, the economy being unable to develop in the absence of credit. With the aid of a statistic software we have tried to determine the supposed existence of a connection between the GDP, credits offered to public administration and credits offered to households. The results of the analysis show that credits offered to households contribute to a greater extent to the formation of the GDP than credits offered to public adminis…
Well-being and the Great Recession in Spain
2018
This is an original manuscript / preprint of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Applied Economics Letters on 2019, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/13504851.2018.1545076 This letter assesses the impact of the Great Recession on well-being in Spanish provinces using two alternative composite indicators of objective well-being that include somewhat different dimensions. Whereas the crisis notably eroded economic well-being, its impact on overall well-being – which in addition to economic dimensions also includes non-economic ones – was imperceptible. This result points to the need to carefully define and assess well-being in empirical analyses.
The economic crisis in an industrial district and its effects on the migration flows
2013
El modelo económico de la provincia de Castellón, basado en la industria cerámica (más del 90% de la producción española) y la construcción, junto con las actividades relacionadas con el turismo, la agricultura intensiva de regadío y el servicio doméstico, generó una oferta de empleo impresionante que, entre 2000 y 2007, atrajo a miles de inmigrantes, la mayoría procedentes de Rumania. La actual crisis económica ha tenido efectos devastadores en esta provincia, donde la destrucción de puestos de trabajo ha sido mucho más intensa que en el conjunto estatal, al tiempo que el paro registra niveles más altos, sobre todo entre la población extranjera. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el i…
