L'histoire du droit constituée en discipline : consécration ou repli identitaire ?
2001
La reconnaissance de l’histoire du droit en tant que savoir est la consequence du developpement de l’Ecole historique allemande du droit. L’histoire du droit est-elle une science methodologique ou une pure connaissance erudite ? La question n’a pas fait l’objet de reponses claires de la part des disciples de Savigny. Quand des chaires d’histoire du droit furent creees en Italie, en France ou en Allemagne, le risque etait grand d’un isolement des nouveaux specialistes de la matiere, conduisant a une rupture avec les autres sciences humaines. Cet article essaie d’expliquer cette evolution dans l’histoire de la pensee juridique et des facultes de droit en Europe.

Alexandre Brierre de Boismont and the limits of the psychopathological gaze
2018
One of the most remarkable implications of psychological medicine in the transition from the 18th to the 19th century was the advent of a new way of looking at the human being and new tools for analysing not only behaviour and individual experience, but also historical events, collective behavioural patterns or complex cultural achievements. Unsurprisingly, the deployment of this gaze could not advance without there being a series of disputes and controversies about its reach and the limits to its indiscriminate application. Focusing on the figure of French alienist Alexandre Brierre de Boismont and on the controversial cases of hallucinations and suicide, this article addresses the confli…

Empiricism and Relationism Intertwined: Hume and Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity
2016
Einstein acknowledged that his reading of Hume influenced the development of his special theory of relativity. In this article, I juxtapose Hume’s philosophy with Einstein’s philosophical analysis related to his special relativity. I argue that there are two common points to be found in their writings, namely an empiricist theory of ideas and concepts, and a relationist ontology regarding space and time. The main thesis of this article is that these two points are intertwined in Hume and Einstein.
Environmental problems and Geographic education. A case study: Learning about the climate and landscape in Ontinyent (Spain)
2021
AbstractCultural perceptions of the environment bring us back to elements and factors guided by “natural” cause-effect principles. It seems that academic education has had little effect on the manner and results of learning about changes in the local landscape, especially as regards rational explanations. There is considerable difficulty relating academic concepts about the climate to transformations in the environmental landscape. Teaching tasks are mediatized due to the use of rigorous and precise concepts which facilitate functional and satisfactory learning. This is the objective of the research this article aims to undertake, for which we have chosen the case of Ontinyent (Spain). This…
Anti-Semitism and Progressive Era Social Science. The case of John R. Commons
2016
This paper explores Common’s views toward Jews in order to assess whether his published writings contain assertion that today would be stigmatized as anti-Semitic. The evidence we provide shows that Commons’ racial characterization of Jews was framed within a broad and indiscriminate xenophobic framework. With other leading Progressive Era social scientists, in fact, Commons shared the idea that the new immigration from Eastern and southern Europe would increase competition in the labor market, drive down wages, and lead Anglo-Saxon men and women to have fewer children, since they would not want them to compete with those who survive on less. Within this general xenophobic context, Commons …

Constitución y verdad. La controversia entre Rafael de Vélez y Joaquín Lorenzo Villanueva a propósito de la <em>Apología del Trono</em>
2017
El trabajo aborda el lugar del discurso antiliberal reaccionario en los primeros años de la Revolución en España. Se centra para ello en la controversia que mantuvieron el diputado liberal Joaquín Lorenzo Villanueva y el publicista y fraile capuchino Rafael de Vélez entre 1820 y 1825. Las fuentes utilizadas remiten directamente a los escritos de ambos polemistas tomando como punto de partida la «Apología del Trono» del Padre Vélez. Metodológicamente, la perspectiva de análisis adoptada parte de la consideración teórica de que la crítica al liberalismo, en sus diversas manifestaciones, fue parte inherente al proceso revolucionario y no un elemento marginal del mismo. El examen confrontado de…
