La interpretación judicial en España en un momento de cambio.
2015
The publication in the European Union of Directive 2010/64/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 October 2010 on the right to interpretation and translation in criminal proceedings has been a turning point in a great number of aspects related to court and police interpretation. The main objective of the Directive is to ensure quality legal interpretation throughout the process, as part of the right to defense and to a fair trial. Spain, as a Member State of the EU, has the obligation to transpose this European Directive into its domestic law. Therefore, this is a historic moment in which two main factors converge: the need to change the legislation to bring it in line with …

El maestro Joan de Miravet y la escuela municipal de Valencia en la primera mitad del siglo XV
2008
En 1417, el gobierno municipal valenciano compró un inmueble en la parroquia de Sant Bartomeu para abrir una escuela de gramática. El maestro Joan de Miravet, oriundo de Alcoi, dirigió dicha escuela entre 1429 y 1456; escribió un tratado de gramática que fue impreso en 1495, y su trabajo fue elogiado por sus conciudadanos y sus colegas de profesión. Su magisterio dio estabilidad a la escuela municipal, que permaneció activa a lo largo de todo el siglo XV y se integró finalmente en la Universidad cuando esta fue fundada en 1499. (A)
Users of home-care services in a Nordic welfare state under marketisation: the rich, the poor and the sick
2017
Stricter access to public services, outsourcing of municipal services and increasing allocation of public funding for the purchase of private services have resulted in a marketisation wave in Finland. In this context of a Nordic welfare state undergoing marketisation, this paper aims to examine the use of Finnish care services among older people and find out who are using these new kinds of private services. How wide is their use and do the users of private care services differ from those who are using public services? How usual is it to mix both public and private care services? The questionnaire survey data set used here was gathered in 2010 among the population aged 75 and over in the ci…
Midlife work ability and mobility limitation in old age among non-disability and disability retirees - a prospective study
2016
Little is known about the wellbeing and mobility limitation of older disability retirees. Personal and environmental factors, such as time spent in working life, may either exacerbate or mitigate the onset of mobility limitation in general population. We aimed to study perceived midlife work ability as a determinant of self-reported mobility limitation in old age among municipal employees who transitioned into non-disability and disability retirement. METHODS: 4329 participants of the Finnish Longitudinal Study of Municipal Employees (FLAME) had retired during January 1985 and July 2000. They had data on retirement, perceived work ability in 1985, and self-reported mobility limitation (non-…
Issues of adopting benefits management practices of IT investments in municipalities: A Delphi study in Norway
2007
Author's version of a chapter in Proceedings of the 40th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences. Also available from the publisher at http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/HICSS.2007.303 The concept of benefits management highlights explicit practices to facilitate benefits realization from information technology (IT) investments, in addition to plain project management focusing on information systems (IS) deliverables as such. This article presents preliminary results from a Delphi study of identifying critical issues to facilitate adoption of benefits management practices in Norwegian municipalities. Three expert panels were established, representing three stakeholder groups within…
Separation of motor oils, oily wastes and hydrocarbons from contaminated water by sorption on chrome shavings
2007
In this paper, the ability of chrome shavings to remove motor oils, oily wastes and hydrocarbons from water has been studied. To determine amount of hydrocarbons sorbed on tanned wastes, a FT-NIR methodology was used and a multivariate calibration based on partial least squares (PLS) was employed for data treatment. The light density, porous tanned waste granules float on the surface of water and remove hydrocarbons and oil films. Wastes fibers from tannery industry have high sorption capacity. These tanned solid wastes are capable of absorbing many times their weight in oil or hydrocarbons (6.5-7.6g of oil and 6.3g of hydrocarbons per gram of chrome shavings). The removal efficiency of the…
