Does a Responsible University Need a Third Mission?
2019
AbstractThere are different positions in the discourse about how the university can contribute to innovation, economic development and regional development. One position regards regional development as a new third mission. Another position argues for the integration of the regional role within the first two roles, which are teaching and research. Both positions are normative and rest on the assumption that the university is a homogeneous organisation and that transforming the role of the university into a regional development role is simple. However, if the university is a loosely coupled organisation, the transformation is more challenging. This chapter addresses this organisational challe…
Organización del tiempo de sueño y descanso en la educación preprimaria de Suecia y España. Una lectura desde el bienestar de la primera infancia
2021
Los tiempos de sueño y descanso juegan un papel fundamental en el bienestar y el aprendizaje de los niños y niñas más pequeños. La gestión del tiempo escolar, que es organizado por los sistemas educativos, afecta a las horas de instrucción del alumnado o al régimen de organización de la jornada lectiva, así como a los momentos dedicados al descanso y a las funciones vitales (comer, dormir, etc.). Este artículo se centra en el análisis normativo en el nivel estatal en España y Suecia en relación con estas cuestiones pedagógicas. Los resultados muestran cómo ambos sistemas educativos organizan el tiempo escolar de forma variable, lo que se traduce en diferentes organizaciones del tiempo, espa…

Abstract A person-centered approach was used to identify the profiles of symptoms of psychological ill-being among Finnish upper secondary education students (N = 2889); to examine whether gender and educational track (i.e., academic or vocational) are associated with these profiles; and to investigate the role of profiles in school dropout intentions. Using latent profile analysis, one asymptomatic profile (normative, 79.2%) and three symptomatic profiles (internalizing symptoms, 9.1%; externalizing symptoms, 9.1%; and comorbid symptoms, 2.6%) were identified. Boys in the vocational track were overrepresented in the externalizing-symptoms profile, whereas girls in both tracks were overrepr…
Executives' Commitment to Information Security
2020
Two aspects of decision-making on information security spending, executives' varying preferences for how proposals should be presented and the framing of the proposals, are developed. The proposed model of executives' commitment to information security is an interaction model (in addition to the cost of a security solution, and the risk and the potential loss of a security threat) consisting of the interaction between an executive's preferred subordinate influence approach (PSIA), rational or inspirational, and the framing, positive or negative, of a security proposal. The interaction of these two constructs affects the executive's commitment to an information security proposal. The model i…
Three Liberal Conceptions of Self-Realization: Creativity, Authenticity and Flourishing
2018
The concept of self-realization, in its most contemporary sense, owes much to an idea, which arose with the Enlightenment, as the culmination of the process of the rebirth of the subject in the fifteenth century. However, the notion of self-realization is complex because it entails a combination of two apparently antagonistic elements: freedom and normativity. In this chapter, I intend to clarify this concept by examining the theses of three authors—J. S. Mill, Taylor and Nussbaum—in whose work the idea of self-realization appears in a significant way. The three philosophers underline some common elements that together with the concepts of project and imagination held by Ortega shed light o…
A note on validity in law and regulatory systems (position paper)
2012
This is position paper is located at the theoretical crossroads of several projects: CAPER, EU Grant Agreement 261712; CROWDSOURCING DER2012-39492-C02-0, SINTELNET FP7-ICT-2009-C-286380; CONSUMEDIA INNPACTO IPT-2011-1015-430000; CROWD-CRISSCONTROL IPT-2012-0968-390000. The notion of validity fulfils a crucial role in legal theory. The emerging Web 3.0 opens a new landscape where Semantic Web languages, legal ontologies, and the construction of Normative Multiagent Systems are built up to cover new regulatory needs. Conceptual models for complex regulatory systems shape the characteristic features of rules, norms and principles in different ways. This position paper outlines one of such mult…
A Norm-Governed Holonic Multi-agent System Metamodel
2013
Modeling and designing systems that require a high level of coordination, control and automation is a very difficult task. The problem is the lack of design processes able to cover all the features these systems present. This paper presents an extension of the ASPECS metamodel for supporting organizational and normative principles and it allows to define models not only from an holonic agent viewpoint but also from a normative organization perspective. Moreover, our work emphasizes and makes it explicit the norms that regulate the structural, behavioral and finally adaptive aspect of an organizational system. The extended metamodel was experimented creating a Virtual Enterprise model for th…
POSITIVISMO JURÍDICO NORMATIVO, NEUTRALIDAD Y ESTADO DE DERECHO
2012
Usually, in jurisprudential debates what is discussed under the rubric of ‘neutrality’ is the claim that jurisprudence is (or at least can, and should be) a conceptual, or descriptive - thus, non-normative, or morally neutral - inquiry. I discuss neutrality in an altogether different sense, namely, neutrality as an ethico-political ideal the law should meet. My starting point is normative legal positivism, or the claim that it is a good and desirable thing that the laws have easily identifiable, readily accessible, as far as possible non-controversial social sources. What justifies normative legal positivism, I claim, is the value - or the ideal - of neutrality, suitably understood. I.e., w…
Rules and norms: two kinds of normative behaviour:
2016
Celano’s notion of a “pre-convention” is grounded in the opposition between two allegedly different kinds of normative behaviour: observing a “rule” and conforming to a “norm”. This opposition plays a central role in Celano’s paper, and marks a crucial point in his intellectual trajectory. Nevertheless, it remains largely implicit. In this paper, I try to make it fully explicit, giving a more precise characterisation of both kinds of normative behaviour. I also focus on the importance of distinguishing between them, express some conjectures (or wishes) regarding Celano’s future research, and propose a (marginal) criticism.
