This book was released on 1998 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La penetración de las tecnologías de la información en los diversos ámbitos de la vida cotidiana está produciendo profundos cambios en todos los sectores; en algunos, particularmente en la televisión digital, se están viviendo momentos decisivos que conformarán un nuevo sistema comunicativo social. En este contexto, las televisiones locales serán unos agentes privilegiados para la formación de ese nuevo sistema audiovisual más acorde con las sociedades actuales, pero para conseguirlo es necesario acabar con la situación de incertidumbre normativa en que la actitud errática de la administración les ha obligado a sobrevivir desde que hace ya veinte años aparecieron las primeras televisiones locales en nuestro país. El libro hace un recorrido por la historia de la televisión, analizando el contexto socioeconómico, político y comunicativo en que se implantó y se ha venido desarrollando para caracterizar su momento actual. El texto se complementa con el informe detallado de la situación en que se encuentra el conjunto de las televisiones locales que operan en la provincia de Castellón, como muestra significativa de la crítica posición en que está el sector para afrontar la inminente transición a la TDT (televisión digital terrestre) que se le ha impuesto con tanta urgencia y que va acabar por determinar el equilibrio y la pluralidad de nuestro sistema comunicativo durante los próximos años y, en definitiva, el modelo de desarrollo futuro de nuestra sociedad.
Download or read book The Spanish Fiscal Transition written by Sara Torregrosa Hetland and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-18 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an analysis of the process and outcomes of the tax reform, with a focus on progressivity, redistribution, and inequality. Between 1977 and 1986, Spain underwent a comprehensive tax reform which shaped its fiscal system until today. It was made in connection with the transition to democracy and indeed was understood as a fundamental part of the political change. The book situates the reform both within Spanish history and international trends in tax systems and connects it to the expansion of the welfare state and regional decentralization in Spain. The analysis reveals that the tax system failed to attain progressivity, and significant levels of fraud had a noticeable impact on inequality. Because of this, fiscal redistribution remained limited. In the new political economy of the second globalization, late democratic and fiscal transitioners were unable to emulate the path of the welfare state forerunners.
Download or read book Los niveles de vida en Espa a y Francia written by Gérard Gayot and published by Universidad de Alicante. This book was released on 2010 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In memoriam Gérard Gayot. Las asociaciones de Historia Económica española y francesa constituyeron en 2006 un comité encargado de celebrar encuentros periódicos que fomentaran el intercambio de ideas y métodos, la creación de redes de investigación y los estudios de historia comparada. El comité organizó un coloquio sobre "Niveles de vida en España y Francia (siglos XVIII al XX)" que se celebró en 2008 en Aix-en-Provence con la colaboración de la UMR (Unité Mixte de Recherche) TELEMME (Université de Provence-CNRS). Este libro reúne las 15 ponencias presentadas y está dedicado a la memoria de Gérard Gayot, presidente de la asociación francesa y miembro del comité, que falleció poco después del coloquio. Las ponencias están escritas por especialistas españoles y franceses y abarcan el período fines del Antiguo Régimen - fines del siglo XX desde múltiples perspectivas: salarios (Moreno Lázaro y Ventoso); consumo (Cussó y Daumas); mortalidad (Nicolau); estatura (García Montero, Martínez Carrión y Puche Gil, Heyberger); coste de la vida (Maluquer de Motes); crédito (Effose); distribución de la renta (Gayot y Kasdi, Buti); influencia de las instituciones y estructuras agrarias en el bienestar campesino (Pérez Picazo); papel de las divisas francesas en el crecimiento económico de España entre 1960 y 1975 (Sánchez Sánchez); análisis de la evolución del nivel de vida "cruzando" varios indicadores (Escudero y Simón) y también una aproximación teórica a la cuantificación de la desigualdad basada en la hipótesis de que es producto de convenciones y, por consiguiente, mensurable desde otras alternativas a la visión del economista (Kampelmann). Los editores del libro esperamos que contribuya a un mejor conocimiento de las diferencias de bienestar que han existido entre España y Francia y que resulte útil no sólo a los profesionales de la Historia, sino a estudiantes universitarios de Historia, Economía y otras ciencias sociales así como al público culto en general. Gérard Chastagaret es catedrático de Historia en la universidad de Provence (Aix- Marseille) ; Jean Claude Daumas es catedrático de Historia en la universidad de Franche-Comté; Antonio Escudero es catedrático de Historia Económica en la universidad de Alicante y Olivier Raveux es investigador del Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS).

Download or read book Between Empire and Globalization written by Albert Carreras and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a rigorously chronological journey through the economic history of modern Spain, always with an eye opened to what happens in the international economy and a focus on economic policy making and institutional change. It shows the central theme of the Spanish economy from the late 18th century to the early 21st century is the painful transformation from being a major imperial power to a small nation and later a member of the European Community and a player in a globalized economy. It looks in detail at two major issues - economic growth and convergence or divergence to the Western European pattern- and the permanent tension between the two when assessing historical experience since the industrial revolution. This book proposes new visions of the economic past of Spain and provides comparisons over time and space, which will be of interest to academics and students of economic history, European economic history and more specifically Spanish economic history.

Download or read book The Power of Entrepreneurs written by Mercedes Cabrera and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Spain is an important member of the EU, relatively little is known about its economy and its interrelationship with political forces. This book, the first of its kind, offers a long-term view and analyzes this ever-changing relationship throughout the 20th century with its various upheavals such as the crisis of the democratic republic and the civil war in the 1930s, the long General Franco dictatorship from the 1940s until the 1970s and the subsequent transition to democracy. From the detailed studies of individual cases, specific companies as well as entrepreneurial organizations, a very diverse picture emerges, contradicting widespread simplistic interpretations of politico-economic linkages, which demonstrates both the pluralism of the economic interests as well as the complexity of their relationship to the political class.

Download or read book Reducing Inequalities in Europe written by Daniel Vaughan-Whitehead and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International debate has recently focused on increased inequalities and the adverse effects they may have on both social and economic developments. Income inequality, now at its highest level for the past half-century, may not only undermine the sustainability of European social policy but also put at risk Europe’s sustainable recovery. A common feature of recent reports on inequality (ILO, OECD, IMF, 2015–17) is their recognition that the causes emerge from mechanisms in the world of work. The purpose of this book is to investigate the possible role of industrial relations, and labour policies more generally, in reducing these inequalities.
