Not Worth the Net Worth? The Democratic Dilemmas of Privileged Access to Information
2017
In this article, we discuss the democratic conditions for parliamentary oversight in EU foreign affairs. Our point of departure is two Interinstitutional Agreements (IIAs) between the Council and the European Parliament (EP), which provide the latter with access to sensitive documents. To shed light on this issue, we ask to what extent these contribute to the democratic accountability in EU foreign policy? It is argued that the IIAs have strengthened the EP’s role in EU foreign affairs by giving it access to information to which it was previously denied. This does not mean, however, that this increase in power equals a strengthening of the EP as a democratic accountability forum. First of a…
School choice criteria and school segregation in the city of Valencia
2022
El objetivo de este estudio es conocer cuáles son los patrones que intervienen en la elección de centro escolar y detectar los factores sociodemográficos, económicos y de localización que subyacen tras ellos. Para ello, se ha realizado una encuesta a la demanda potencial de los centros públicos que imparten el segundo ciclo de educación infantil en la ciudad de Valencia. Los resultados indican que el principal criterio de elección de centro escolar es la proximidad entre el hogar y el colegio, y que el modo de desplazamiento más utilizado es el peatonal. Sin embargo, los costes de desplazamiento y los medios utilizados están directamente relacionados con las características socioeconómicas …

When everyone is special : gender representation in League of legends
2012
Median vaikutusta sukupuolirooleihin ja niiden tulkintaan on jo pitkään tutkittu eritoten televisiosarjojen osalta. Televisiosarjojen tavoin pelit tavoittavat usein suuria yleisöjä ja täten vaikuttavat jo tarjontansa puolesta käyttäjiensä odotuksiin sukupuoliroolien suhteen. Tästä huolimatta pelejä ja pelien välittämiä sukupuolirooleja on tutkittu verrattain vähän. Tämä työ tarkasteleekin, miten naishahmoja edustetaan suositussa League of Legends-pelissä ja millaisia sukupuolirooleja peli luo. Työn analyysi on jaettu kahteen osaan: ensiksi tarkastellaan pelissä esiintyvien hahmojen määrällistä suhdetta toisiinsa, eli kuinka moni pelin hahmoista on mies- tai naispuolinen, missä rooleissa hah…

Older people's university students in Spain: a comparison of motives and benefits between two models
2010
ABSTRACTThis study examines both the motives for and the benefits of attending a university programme for older people (UPOP) in Spain, and how they vary with the type of UPOP. Two UPOP models were assessed: The ‘Older People's Classes’ of the University of Barcelona, which is organised as a lecture course, and the ‘University of Experience’ at the University of Valencia, which is a three- or four-year variant of regular university degrees. A sample of 321 older students (mean age 67.5 years) was gathered from the two UPOPs, 161 participants from the former and 157 from the latter. The findings suggest that expressive motives such as acquiring knowledge, expanding the mind or learning for t…
