Egalitarny model kształcenia w perspektywie społeczeństwa wiedzy
2016
Dynamiczne przemiany globalizacyjne i współczesna, wszechobecna nowa kultura medialna wywierają duży wpływ na systemy kształcenia. Istniejące w Polsce i krajach ościennych rozwiązania oparto na tradycyjnym modelu kształcenia, kładąc nacisk na jego cechy egalitarne. Wykorzystanie w przestrzeni edukacyjnej nowych narzędzi technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych w praktyce utrwala źle pojęty egalitaryzm kształcenia i nie eliminuje związanych z tym zagrożeń. Efektywne dostosowanie się do wyzwań społeczeństwa wiedzy wymagać będzie wykorzystania wwiększym stopniu modeli elitarnych.
Free school meals as an opportunity to target social equality, healthy eating, and school functioning: experiences from students and teachers in Norw…
2021
Background There are no national arrangements for free school meals provision in Norway despite this being an important opportunity to improve children's and adolescents' nutritional status and ultimately their physical and cognitive development. During a one academic year (2014-2015), a group of Norwegian sixth graders were served a free healthy school meal in a project called 'The School Meal Project'. Objective To explore students' and teachers' experiences of receiving free school meals after the free school meal in 2015 and 5 years later. Design In-depth, semi-structured interviews with separate groups in 2015 and in 2020 were conducted face to face or via telephone or digital platform…
Data from: Deliberation favours social efficiency by making people disregard their relative shares: evidence from USA and India
2017
Groups make decisions on both the production and the distribution of resources. These decisions typically involve a tension between increasing the total level of group resources (i.e. social efficiency) and distributing these resources among group members (i.e. individuals' relative shares). This is the case because the redistribution process may destroy part of the resources, thus resulting in socially inefficient allocations. Here we apply a dual-process approach to understand the cognitive underpinnings of this fundamental tension. We conducted a set of experiments to examine the extent to which different allocation decisions respond to intuition or deliberation. In a newly developed app…
Las prerrogativas de estatus y el libre ejercicio de la actividad parlamentaria en la experiencia italiana: historia reciente de una búsqueda incesan…
2021
Las prerrogativas parlamentarias son institutos necesarios para asegurar el equilibrio entre los poderes constitucionales, aunque no pueden ser entregados a la «total y exclusiva» decisión parlamentaria ni a la jurisdicción ordinaria porque, de lo contrario, podrían producir abusos y fuertes interferencias en el ejercicio de las atribuciones que corresponden al Parlamento o al poder judicial. En la experiencia italiana, la Corte Constitucional ha asumido un papel «arbitral» en los conflictos relacionados con las prerrogativas parlamentarias (el juicio por conflicto de atribuciones entre poderes del Estado y el juicio de legitimidad constitucional de las leyes en vía incidental). Sin embargo…
"I'm tired of hating people" : the use of invitational rhetoric in speeches on equality
2016
Kutsuretoriikka on vuonna 1995 esitelty retoriikan muoto, jonka 20-vuotiselle tutkimushistorialle ovat olleet tunnusomaisia teoriasta esitetty kritiikki ja tutkijoiden metodologiset erimielisyydet. Kutsuretoriikka on feministisestä tutkimuksesta syntynyt tutkimuskohde, joka on harvoin sisällytetty osaksi kielitieteellistä tutkimusta. Kutsuretoriikalla tarkoitetaan puhujan tapaa kutsua yleisö näkemään maailma tai jokin tietty asia hänen näkökulmastaan. Tämä retoriikka eroaa perinteisestä suostuttelevasta retoriikasta siinä, ettei puhujan tavoitteena ole painostaa tai taivutella yleisöä yhtymään hänen mielipiteeseensä. Tämän kandidaatintutkielman tarkoituksena on ottaa osaa tähän yhä käynniss…
A sharp estimate for Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator for domains in a hemisphere
2018
Here, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for the harmonic mean of the first [Formula: see text] non-trivial Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplace–Beltrami operator for domains contained in a hemisphere of [Formula: see text].
Human Capital and Income Inequality: Some Facts and Some Puzzles
2012
Using a broad number of indicators from an updated data set on human capital inequality for 146 countries from 1950 to 2010, this paper documents several facts regarding the evolution of income and human capital inequality. The main findings reveal that, in spite of a large reduction in human capital inequality around the world driven by a decline in the number of illiterates of several hundreds of millions of people, the inequality in the distribution of income has hardly changed. In many regions, the income Gini coefficient in 1960 was very similar to that in 2005. Therefore, improvements in literacy are not a sufficient condition to reduce income inequality, even though they improve life…
Desigualdades de género en el trabajo. La brecha de género en el empleo y la distribución de las tareas de cuidado
2004
This paper focuses on the factors contributing to gender inequality in the distribution of paid work and unpaid work in homes. The European Union Household Panel for Spain is used to empirically test the relative impact of such factors and their contribution to gender inequality. Three indicators are considered: intra-household inequality in employment status, the gender gap in paid employment and the ratio between unpaid care activities and time spent in paid employment. Personal characteristics of the female partner such as age and education have a significant impact on these three indicators. Household characteristics such as the difference in income and in time devoted to caring activit…
Las políticas públicas de igualdad en el empleo y la economía social y cooperativa
2004
There are different policies for equality in employment, different “equality plans”, different guidelines, etc. at various levels (European, national, Autonomous Community, etc.) which aim to reduce inequality between men and women in labour matters, such as wages, employment rates, etc. Measures also exist in the social economy to achieve equality between men and women because this principle is behind the cooperation or cooperative principles on which the social economy is based.
Inequality and poverty in a developing economy: Evidence from regional data (Spain, 1860-1930)
2015
Apart from measuring inequality and poverty at the provincial level in Spain between 1860 and 1930, this paper empirically assesses the relationship between economic growth and both inequality and destitution. The results, on the one hand, confirm the presence of a KuznetsÕ curve. However, although growing incomes did not directly contribute to reducing inequality, at least during the early stages of modern economic growth, other processes associated with economic growth significantly improved the situation of the bottom part of the population. On the other hand, growing incomes and lower inequality levels are shown to have been pro-poor.
