El flujo de llegada de población inmigrantes a España en los últimos diez años ha provocado un incremento muy rápido de la participación del alumnado de origen inmigrante en el sistema educativo, constituyendo cerca del 10% de total del alumnos. Este estudio parte de los datos publicados en el programa PISA-2006. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es analizar los determinantes del -inferior- rendimiento educativo del alumnado inmigrante en el sistema educativo español, para reflexionar acerca de la necesidad de introducir reformas y, en su caso, orientar las políticas educativas. Se trata de un estudio cuantitativo que utiliza, entre otras técnicas, la exploración bivariante previa de los datos y el modelo de regresión multinivel básico.
El presente libro recoge las principales ponencias y artículos presentados al Centro Español de Investigaciones Coreanas (CEIC), que organizó el VIII Seminario Internacional sobre Corea en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) a finales del año 2007. Bajo el título Corea interior, Corea exterior los autores analizan una variedad de temas, muchos de los cuales apenas están tratados en España, tales como los orígenes mitológicos de Corea, el desarrollo de la educación, el pensamiento filosófico confuciano, la literatura o las relaciones con el exterior, sean bilaterales o triangulares, sean relaciones de carácter político o económico. El estudio de algunas cuestiones controvertidas, básicamente históricas y políticas, deja la puerta abierta a futuras aportaciones doctrinales.
This book explores novel theories, strategies and methods for re-naturing cities. It enables readers to learn from best practice and advances the current theoretical and empirical understanding in the field. The book also offers valuable insights into how planners and policymakers can apply this knowledge to their own cities and regions, exploring top-down, bottom-up and mixed mechanisms for the systemic re-naturing of planned and existing cities. There is considerable interest in ‘naturalising’ cities, since it can help address multiple global societal challenges and generate various benefits, such as the enhancement of health and well-being, sustainable urbanisation, ecosystems and the...
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide. We hope this annual publication, anchored in actual experiences, will help identify strengths and weaknesses in each country under review and encourage policy choices that strengthen the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index 2016 presents a portrait of the rule of law in each country by providing scores and rankings organized around eights factors: constraints on government powers, absence of corruption, ope...
The aim of this book is to bring together multidisciplinary research in the field of green infrastructure design, construction and ecology. The main core of the volume is constituted by contributions dealing with green infrastructure, vegetation science, nature-based solutions and sustainable urban development. The green infrastructure and its ecosystem services, indeed, are gaining space in both political agendas and academic research. However, the attention is focused on the services that nature is giving for free to and for human health and survival. What if we start to see things from another perspective? Our actions shall converge for instance to turn man-made environment like cities fr...
