The Romanian Migrants in Spain. An Exceptional Migratory Flow
2011
Abstract The Romanian population is the most important foreign population in Spain. Romanian migrants are characterized by their large number (about 800.000 residents and 268.000 contract workers) and their rapid growth. The economic and labour motivation for migration determines their geographical distribution, with high numbers of Romanian migrants in cities and in areas of agricultural, industrial and tourist industries. However, a high proportion of Romanian migrants also live in small towns and rural areas. Most of them were already illegal migrants when Romania entered the EU and they became EU citizens. From January 1st 2009, these once illegal migrants now have full freedom of emplo…
Using Focus Group in the Development of UNIPA Emotional Autonomy Inventory
2016
Adolescents' Emotional Autonomy from Parents A relevant tenet in developmental psychology is that adolescents are expected to achieve an autonomous functioning, independent from parents, to become reliant on their internal resources and responsible for their actions and decisions. Within this framework, emotional autonomy reflects the affective side of the largest process by which a young person acquires a more mature identity. It emerges when adolescents are capable to abandon dependence on parents and to individuate from them. Moreover, emotional autonomy implies a shift towards a less idealized conception of parental figures, the development of a more complex consideration of them as peo…
La formación científica y didáctica en el grado de Maestro en Educación Primaria y la presencia de la indagación según el profesorado
2022
En este trabajo se analiza la formación científica y de didáctica de las ciencias experimentales que proponen los formadores de maestros y maestras de educación primaria, y si la metodología indagatoria está presente en dichas propuestas. Las respuestas de este profesorado en activo (n=77) del grado en Educación Primaria de veinte universidades españolas, recogidas mediante un cuestionario con cuatro preguntas abiertas, muestran, por un lado, que los contenidos científicos propuestos más frecuentes son los relacionados con los grandes bloques de la asignatura de Ciencias de la Naturaleza de Educación Primaria (Materia y Energía, Ser Humano y Salud y Seres Vivos). Por otro lado, entre los co…
Welcome to the candy shop! Conflicting representations of black masculinity
2014
AbstractMainstream hip hop videos have long been known for their images of scantily clad women, extreme materialism, and misogynist and homophobic lyrics. In this article I focus on how rapper 50 Cent's masculinity is constructed and expressed through music, lyrics and images in his video ‘Candy Shop’ from 2005. This is a classically modelled hip hop video, replete with markers of hypermasculinity: fancy cars, ‘bling’, and lots of beautiful, sexually available women. Several scholars have discussed how women are exploited in videos like this and reduced to props for the male star. However, few have explored how this macho masculinity is constructed. Through a close reading of this video, us…
Heritage and Cultural Policy in France under the Fifth Republic
2003
International audience; In the French historical tradition, four approaches at least have been heavily exploited. One seminal study defines the concept longitudinally in terms of religion, the monarchy, the family, the nation, the administration and science. Another essay uses allegory in an attempt to penetrate the proclaimed, avowed or unspoken motives underlying the notion of heritage. Another work uses the criterion of restoration to determine when a historical monument falls into the category of heritage. Fourth, a recent ground-breaking treatise considers heritage in historical and archaeological practice as reflecting representations of citizenship and the nation. Our angle of attack…
Recapturing Joaquín “Chapo” Guzmán in the Mexican Press: An Analysis of the Front Page of El Universal, Reforma, Excélsior, and La Jornada in 2016
2018
This article, whose aim is to know exactly how the headlines of Mexico's four main newspapers have reported on the recapture of Joaquín Guzmán, will show the results of an analysis of the journalistic content of these four Mexican newspapers. These are general papers, which published information on their front page regarding the recapture of the drug trafficker Joaquín 'Chapo' Guzmán. The events took place on January 8, 2016, six months after his escape from Altiplano prison in Mexico. If the escape was spectacular-being from a high-security prison and evidencing collusion of authorities and corruption of the system-the recapture was even more so. Well-known figures, such as actors Kate del…

«Adiós Conchita… ¡hasta nunca!» Sobre la recepción de la nación y el género a través del cine
2018
El documento presentado se podría clasificar dentro del género epistolar. Si dicha condición lo ubicaría en un plano de poca originalidad como fuente para la Historia, una serie de elementos le confieren un valor especial. Por un lado, se trata de un artículo de periódico publicado en El Socialista, el 20 de marzo de 1932, en la sección de “Cinema y espectáculos”. El texto toma la forma de misiva abierta, dirigida a la actriz Conchita Montenegro —Concepción Andrés Picado, San Sebastián, 1911 —Madrid, 2007— y firmada por Juanita Pérez López. Por lo tanto, aceptada la autoría —sin más información que el nombre, precisamente coincidente con el de una hermana de la actriz, también Juanita—, el …
