Contribución al análisis sociológico de la creatividad y la digitalización del campo cultural: creación, intermediación y crisis
2019
The so-called transition to the digital paradigm is eroding the autonomy of the cultural field achieved during the XIX and XX Centuries, subjugating them to economic and technological dynamics. However, the hegemonic discourse tends to interpret this as an overall positive process for the creative domain, focusing on the increase in information resource and creativity tool availability. However, an analysis of the theories and concepts of the sociology of culture reveals a more ambivalent balance. While the notion of authorship and creation can be interpreted from a more cooperative and relativistic view it is arguable whether this concept can be eliminated altogether. Also, although cultur…

Blood-Red Relations In and Out of Place : Women’s Self-Harm and Supernatural Crime in The Moth Diaries
2022
In Canadian filmmaker Mary Harron’s The Moth Diaries (a Canadian/ American/Irish co-production), exploring adolescent girls’ friendships and self-harm in a boarding school setting, blood is out of place. It drips from the protagonist’s father’s wrist artery, willingly shed in suicide; involuntarily tarnishes her nightgown as menstrual blood; falls on the school director’s china figurines as nosebleed; and pours in the school library as a vampire-invoked rain. Moth uses blood to manifest the suicide contagion that Rebecca fears she has inherited from her artist father. Blood also signifies her resistance and recovery, enabled by her difficult relationship with her schoolmates, erstwhile best…
First World War Diaries: Making the Private Public
2020
This article analyses several World War I Diaries written by soldiers on the Front. Starting with the circumstances of publication and their effects on the text, the article addresses the passage of these very private texts into public life, before turning to the role played by the diaries for the soldiers who write them. Studies of the diary as a genre are used to show how war diaries fit into the more general genre. Finally the article turns to the reception of these works, by studying what part literary distance may play for the soldiers keeping a diary, and by arguing that the task of making sense of these texts has been transferred to present-day readers.

Coordination mechanisms and parent-subsidiary relationships in volatile environments: a theoretical approach
2015
Este trabajo es una reflexión sobre cómo puede influir la volatilidad del entorno local de una filial sobre los mecanismos de coordinación que estructuran las relaciones matriz-filial: centralización, formalización y socialización, en presencia de algunos factores de contingencia tales como el enfoque estratégico de la multinacional, el país de origen, la complejidad, el tamaño y la edad. De igual manera se emplea la tipología sobre las relaciones matriz-filial de Ghoshal y Nohria (1989) para valorar su aplicabilidad en entornos volátiles. A partir de los razonamientos realizados se plantean algunas proposiciones y se presenta como principal conclusión que, en entornos volátiles, las relaci…
