La primera aproximación de Hollywood a la Guerra Civil española: <em>The Last Train From Madrid (1937)</em> / First Approach of Hollywood…
2017
La Guerra Civil española fue un tema prohibido de forma tácita en el Hollywood regulado por la autocensura de la Oficina Hays y la PCA. Como consecuencia, las productoras cinematográficas norteamericanas sólo realizaron tres films sobre la contienda mientras se desarrolló (1936-1939). Este artículo analiza el contenido histórico y discurso ideológico de The Last Train From Madrid (James Hogan, 1937), la primera aproximación de Hollywood a la guerra de España. Se trata de un film menor, apenas estudiado, que sigue sin estar editado comercialmente. Sin embargo, posee gran relevancia en lo que atañe a la visión inaugural que se ofreció al público estadounidense sobre la beligerancia española e…
Civil Society, Corruption and Ethnic Relations
2015
In 2007 the Estonian government began to relocate a highly contentious Soviet era war memorial from the centre of Tallinn to a nearby military cemetery. The ‘Bronze Soldier’ was erected in 1947 to honour the memory of the fallen Soviet soldiers who had fought in the battles that liberated Tallinn from German forces during the Second World War. At that time it was known as the ‘Monument to the Liberators of Tallinn’. An eternal flame was added in 1964. Following independence, Estonian authorities rededicated it to all soldiers who had died during the war and dismantled the eternal flame in an attempt to depoliticise the memorial. For ethnic Estonians, however, it remained an acrimonious symb…
Study of the effect of H2S, MeSH and DMS on the sensory profile of wine model solutions by Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA)
2016
The effect of hydrogen sulfide (HS), methanethiol (MeSH) and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) on the odor properties of three wine models-WM- (young white, young red and oaked red wines) was studied. Wine models were built by mixing a pool of common wine volatile and non-volatile compounds and further spiked with eight different combinations of the three sulfur compounds present at two levels (level 0: 0 μg L and level 1: 40 μg L of HS, 12 μg L of MeSH; 55 μg L of DMS). For each wine matrix eight WMs were produced and further submitted to sensory description by Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA) method. Hydrogen sulfide and methanethiol were clearly involved in the formation of reductive aromas and shared th…
Twenty-five years of analysis of the spanish populations sportive behaviour (1980-2005)
2006
The study of the Spanish population sport behaviour from the beginning of the democratic transition until de middle of the first decade of the XXI century, relies on a strong theoretical and empirical basis, six national social surveys that cover the 2005-1990 period. All the six sport social surveys have the same sponsorship, the Sport Council (CSD), the same Institute of Social Research (CIS), and the same author, the one that has prepared the present article. The longitudinal analysis of the main results allows to frame, both theoretically and empirically, the advance of the posmodernization processes in the Spanish sport social system as well as in the sport behaviour of the Spanish pop…
Veinticinco años de análisis del comportamiento deportivo de la población española (1980-2005)
2006
El estudio de los hábitos deportivos de la población española desde los inicios de la transición democrática hasta mediados de la primera década del siglo XXI, cuenta con una rigurosa base empírica de resultados, ya que en el periodo 1980-2005 se han llevado a cabo con una periodicidad quinquenal seis encuestas probabilísticas de alcance nacional con una continuidad tanto en su patrocinio, el Consejo Superior de Deportes, como en el instituto de investigación que ha realizado las encuestas, el Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas, y en la dirección de la investigación y análisis y publicación de los resultados. En este trabajo se presenta un análisis resumido y diacrónico de los resultado…
La configuración formal de las palabras idiomáticas originadas por acortamiento en locuciones en español: los casos de amén, estampía, mor y ton
2022
En el presente artículo pretendemos analizar la configuración formal con la que han quedado fijadas cuatro palabras idiomáticas (amén, estampía, mor y ton) que se han formado mediante aféresis, síncopa y apócope, es decir, procesos de acortamiento o eliminación de un fragmento respecto a una base originaria. Nos centraremos en fenómenos habituales que presentan este tipo de voces así formadas, como la estructura silábica, la acentuación paroxítona o la dislocación acentual respecto a sus bases. Reservamos para estudios futuros un análisis fraseológico centrado en los sintagmas y funciones de las cinco locuciones que estas conforman. The aim of this paper is to analyze the morphology of four…
Dissemination of Spanish Social Sciences and Humanities Journals
2005
The presence of scholarly journals in international data bases promotes the dissemination of research results and also facilitates requests for specific articles or journals by end users. As scientists seek optimal visibility for their work and wish their results to be published in journals with high circulation, it is important to know which are the leading journals within each scientific area. This paper contains a bibliometric study of scientific journals in the areas of Social Sciences and Humanities that are currently published in Spain, together with information concerning their production and circulation in the different national and international bibliographical data bases, publishe…
Age and productivity as determinants of firm survival over the industry life cycle
2017
AbstractThis paper contributes to fill the gap between the literature on the determinants of firm survival and the empirical works on the industry life cycle (ILC). Using a representative sample of Spanish firms with 10 or more employees over the period 1993–2009, the role played by firm age and productivity in firm survival is empirically analysed across three stages of the life cycle of forty-seven 3-digit manufacturing sectors. In the ‘early’ stage of the ILC, firm age is negatively correlated with hazard rates while firm productivity is not. Firm productivity is associated with lower hazard in the ‘mature’ stage of the ILC, when competition is primarily efficiency-driven, while firm age…
Research data sharing in Spain: Exploring determinants, practices, and perceptions
2020
This work provides an overview of a Spanish survey on research data, which was carried out within the framework of the project Datasea at the beginning of 2015. It is covered by the objectives of sustainable development (goal 9) to support the research. The purpose of the study was to identify the habits and current experiences of Spanish researchers in the health sciences in relation to the management and sharing of raw research data. Method: An electronic questionnaire composed of 40 questions divided into three blocks was designed. The three Section s contained questions on the following aspects: (A) personal information
ENGLISH LANGUAGE FOR SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION: LEARNING FROM THE BOLOGNA PROCESS
2011
The Bologna Process aims to provide tools to connect the European national educational systems. The purpose of this paper is to analyze what we have learned and what challenges remain today. Since the beginning all participating countries had to agree on a comparable three cycle degree system for undergraduates (Bachelor degrees or Grades) and graduates (Master and PhD degrees) in order to create compatibility and comparability for achieving international competitiveness and a worldwide degree of attractiveness in higher education. The Bologna Declaration, originally signed by 29 countries, has now reached 47 countries, engaged in the process of creating a European Higher Education Area (EH…
