Work engagement among school directors and teachers' behavior at work
2016
The purpose of this paper is to analyze engagement at work among public primary school directors and to investigate the impact of school heads' management style on teachers' behavior at work, in a developing country. Results are based on a specific survey of workflow processes and a representative sample of around 1,000 public primary schools in Madagascar. These surveys gather extremely rare information on several aspects of the staff’s behavior at work and on the tasks performed as part of their workflow. Two-levels models and least square models are used to analyze engagement at work among school directors, and to evaluate the impact of school director's management style on teachers' eng…

Job Satisfaction among Primary School Personnel
2016
International audience; This article analyzes the job satisfaction of primary school teachers inMadagascar. Based on the estimation of multilevel models, low wages and problems getting paid, job insecurity, lack of in-service training, high pupil-teacher ratios, and lack of basic infrastructure and teaching materials are identified as the main reasons for dissatisfaction. Principals' control of teachers' activities also adversely affects satisfaction, suggesting that, in Malagasy schools, neither school directors nor teachers have succeeded in adopting organizational cultures based on cooperation among their members. These results are likely to stimulate debates on educational policy, both …
The Nordic difference: Job quality in Europe 1995–2010
2012
Previous empirical research has pointed out that Nordic countries are distinguished from the rest of Europe in terms of job quality. On the other hand, it has been debated whether, in the longer run, the Nordic welfare state is able to insulate workers from globalization effects. This article investigates whether Nordic countries have retained their advantageous position concerning job quality compared with other EU countries. Empirical analyses are based on the European Working Conditions Survey collected in 1995, 2000, 2005, and 2010. We use data on employees in the 15 member states of the EU prior to enlargement in 2004 (n = 61,457). The results partly confirm previous findings of high j…
Sul potere della Commissione europea di ritirare una proposta legislativa e sui suoi riflessi sugli equilibri istituzionali nel diritto dell'Unione e…
2015
L'articolo si propone di commentare la sentenza del 14 aprile 2015, nella causa C-409/13, con cui la Corte di Giustizia ha risolto un antico contrasto di tesi giuridiche (e politiche) tra il Consiglio dell’Unione europea e la Commissione europea, avente ad oggetto la questione se quest’ultima possa ritirare una proposta legislativa e, se sì, a quali condizioni e in quali casi. Respingendo il ricorso del Consiglio, la Corte ha risolto il conflitto a favore della Commissione, ma ha anche dato alcune indicazioni riguardo a requisiti di ordine sia procedurale che sostanziale che devono essere rispettati ai fini di un “legittimo” esercizio del potere di ritiro. L'articolo si propone anche di sot…
Sentido y orientación de la Ley 27/2013 de Racionalización y Sostenibilidad de la Administración Local: autonomía local, recentralización y provisión…
2014
El presente trabajo trata de identificar algunas de las líneas esenciales de la reforma local operada por la ley 27/2013 y analizar cómo, en concreto, es previsible que afecten a nuestro régimen local tradicional y a los fundamentos de su marco jurídico constitucional. En concreto, el estudio se centra en indagar en la efectiva posibilidad de que la noción de autonomía local permita predicar cierta capacidad de resistencia jurídica frente a las pretensiones de reforma del legislador, en primer lugar. También analiza la reforma local a partir de la identificación de una línea, rastreable ya desde hace unos años, tendente a limitar las posibilidades de desarrollo autonómico, esto es, de recen…

EU Law Lecture Handouts
2018
The subject “Legal Institutions of the European Union” includes, to a great extent, the study of European Union (EU) Law. This legal order comprises not only the supranational normative aspects governing the structure and the internal functioning of the EU (its institutional system, the European legal order, its competences, etc.), but also its legal/political nature and the relationship of the EU with its Member States, as well as with third countries and other international organisations. This document labelled “EU Law Lecture Handouts” is essentially a short summary of each lesson, following the structure of the course official syllabus. This document also provides outlines and more visu…
Legally protected cultural goods and bankruptcy proceedings
2020
This paper deals with general problems of legal aims of bankruptcy proceedings in connection with the aims of heritage protection – issues built by completely different systems of values. Bankruptcy is designed for protecting pecuniary interest of a limited group of people, while cultural heritage is protected for present and future generations, despite its current commercial significance. In the global environment, bankruptcy of a cultural goods owner usually has a cross-border range but national bankruptcy legislations and laws devoted to heritage protection differ in very serious aspects. For this reason the paper is not limited to any concrete legal order. There are discussed some impor…
