Great Expectations: A Regional Study of Entrepreneurship Among Romanian Return Migrants
2020
This article examines the main determinants for entrepreneurial activities among return migrants in a regional context within Romania. The analytical framework is based on conceptual tools provided by the intersection of entrepreneurship theory and return migration research. The study aimed to answer a set of research questions regarding migrant individuals’ probability for entrepreneurial careers upon return, and Romania constitutes a fertile European origin country for testing them. Returnees are perceived as one of the main transformational forces within the country, and great expectations are related to their entrepreneurial orientation. We test this general assumption using survey data…

La obligatoriedad de un servicio social y los deberes de solidaridad.
1996
Plantear los límites de actuación del Estado social es lo mismo que los límites en las exigencias de solidaridad. Los deberes jurídicos —y no sólo morales— de la solidaridad van más allá de las contribuciones económicas, alcanzando una contribución personal en términos de tiempo. El autor analiza la coincidencia de tres modelos: servicio civil, voluntariado y trabajadores sociales. El crecimiento de estos dos últimos como consecuencia del Estado asistencial invita a definir los papeles para impulsar el objetivo del Estado social a partir de la ciudadanía socialmente responsable. Índice: La solidaridad como principio jurídico. Solidaridad, Estado social de Derecho y ciudadanía. Los deberes d…
The role of Facebook in the process of acquiring information. Own research study
2015
This paper focuses on the social network sites (SNSs), especially on Facebook, and their role in people’s daily life. It focuses on people who are statistically not at risk of the digital exclusion (young and still educating). Here are presented conclusions of the author's own research focusing on the role of Facebook in daily life of a group of its users. Research was done as an experiment. The purpose of the study was to find out if students, who use Facebook, could stop to do it temporarily. Facebook is here regarded as a main source of various kinds of information, both private and public. In this article the author tries to prove that Facebook is one of the primary channels of informa…
Paradojas de la historia, paradojas de la historiografía. Las peripecias del fascismo español
2001
The author argues here the importance of avoiding the paradigm of backwardness in analyzing the evolution and vicissitudes of Spanish fascism. Like in other European countries, the fin-de-siècle cultural crisis saw the emergence of a new nationalist political culture, which would deeply influence Spanish fascism in the future. After the failure of the fascist movement during the Second Republic, explicable fundamentally in political terms, there followed its conversion into a mass party during the Civil War and its immediate subordination to the State, to which it nonetheless represented a fundamental support. Franco’s regime, as a fascistic —not fascist— dictatorship, may be seen as a pecu…

Effectiveness of Entrepreneurial Universities: Experiences and Challenges in Digital Era (A Systemic Approach)
2021
The modern world actively discusses the challenges that will lead to the Fourth Industrial Revolution. As the specialists assume, part of the jobs will be replaced by artificial intelligence. In addition, creation of completely new jobs is expected. As for the jobs that might be maintained in future, skills upgrading will be particularly important. In such a turbulent environment of economic development, universities, and in particular entrepreneurial universities, play a significant role. We think so as these universities have special structures that promote form a university-industry-government triple helix, reskilling and commercialization of new ideas, etc. Due to the above-mentioned fa…
El Mal como problema político : el “paradigma Dostoievski” y el nacimiento de la distopía
2016
Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina; Argentina Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Universidad de Palermo. Facultad de Ciencias Sociales. Centro de Investigación en Ciencias Sociales; Argentina Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Universidad del Salvador; Argentina Resumen: Quizás uno de los aspectos más inquietantes del mal, visto desde la metafísica, es que posee un sorprendente paralelo con el nihilismo. Sobre ambos podemos decir que son problemas que no tienen solución, pero sí historia. Desde esta perspectiva, la literatura nos ofrece una extensísima lista de ejemplos que ilustran esa doble historia, tan complementaria entre sí, al punto de que cada una permite abrir un horizo…
Relation between Social Conservatism, Moral Competence, Moral Orientations, and the Importance of Moral Foundations
2017
AbstractThis paper examines the relation between moral competence, moral orientations, importance of moral foundations, and political orientation, by combining two theoretical approaches in moral psychology--the cognitive perspective and social-intuitionist perspective. The participants (Study 1 N=348, aged 18 to 67, and Study 2 N = 361, aged 16 to 74) completed the Moral Competence Test (formerly Moral Judgment Test, Lind, 1978, 2008), the 30-Item Full Version of the Moral Foundations Questionnaire (Graham, Haidt & Nosek, 2008), and measurements of political orientation (a seven-point self-evaluation scale in study 1 and an 8-item social conservatism scale in Study 2). There was a nega…
