La Ley 27/2011, de 1 de agosto, sobre actualización, adecuación y modernización del sistema de Seguridad Social, efectúa una de las reformas más amplias y de mayor calado de las realizadas en el sistema público de pensiones. La misma avanza en la dirección marcada por las recomendaciones del Pacto de Toledo aprobadas por el Congreso de los Diputados el 25 de enero de 2011. Conforme se expone en el Preámbulo, la actual situación económica y demográfica en España ha hecho necesaria la reforma del sistema de pensiones en sus distintos ámbitos. Se trata, sin duda alguna, de una ley compleja, que aborda muchos aspectos, de diversa importancia y con distinto impacto, del Sistema de Se...
This book highlights the use of historical data in natural hazard assessments. Different types of data, such as historical data from written documents, are linked to technically measured data such as stream gauge height and consequently river discharge in order to archive new possibilities of probability determination of respective hazardous processes. In addition, this book strengthens this interdisciplinary approach through the application to different processes of earthquakes, floods, and landslides. Based on worldwide examples, the book introduces how various disciplines address the use of historical data in their respective analysis. These studies might give suggestions of new approaches in their own field derived from applications shown by other disciplines. Audience: This volume is of particular interest to professionals interested and involved in natural hazard assessments, working at research institutions and organisations, large and small scale enterprises, governmental agencies as well as private personnel. However, also advanced students might find the book helpful in addressing specific issues raised in natural hazard courses.
The co-monarchy of Mary I and Philip II put England at the heart of early modern Europe. This positive reassessment of their joint reign counters a series of parochial, misogynist and anti-Catholic assumptions, correcting the many myths that have grown up around the marriage and explaining the reasons for its persistent marginalisation in the historiography of sixteenth-century England. Using new archival discoveries and original sources, the book argues for Mary as a great Catholic queen, while fleshing out Philip’s important contributions as king of England. It demonstrates the many positive achievements of this dynastic union in everything from culture, music and art to cartography, commerce and exploration. An important corrective for anyone interested in the history of Tudor England and Habsburg Spain.
Durante gli anni bui della dittatura militare, il Tango era caduto nell'oblio in tutto il mondo, anche in Argentina. Lo spettacolo "Tango Argentino" ha rilanciato a livello mondiale l'interesse per il Tango. Ha fatto il suo debutto a Parigi, poi ha conquistato Broadway e, in seguito, il mondo intero. Nel libro, che Antón ha ricercato pervengono 17 anni a Buenos Aires e in tutto il mondo, descritti i contributi di: Juan Carlos Copes e Maria Nieves, Miguel Ángel Zotto e Milena Plebs, Gloria e Rodolfo Dinzel, Gloria ed Eduardo, Virulazo e Elvira. Ogni tanguero/a impegnato dovrebbe conoscere la storia del risveglio di Tango: questo libro è per loro! Nel libro, ci troviamo faccia a faccia con i miti di ballerini, musicisti e cantanti. Ci racconta alcuni pettegolezzi sui combattimenti e le gelosie dietro le quinte. Antón ci racconta anche la creazione di abiti, ora icone di qualsiasi spettacolo di tango. È definitivo: solo conoscendo l'inizio di questa nuova era, possiamo capire meglio il suo attuale successo globale. Il tango è un linguaggio universale!
Researchers in the field of ecological genomics aim to determine how a genome or a population of genomes interacts with its environment across ecological and evolutionary timescales. Ecological genomics is trans-disciplinary by nature. Ecologists have turned to genomics to be able to elucidate the mechanistic bases of the biodiversity their research tries to understand. Genomicists have turned to ecology in order to better explain the functional cellular and molecular variation they observed in their model organisms. We provide an advanced-level book that covers this recent research and proposes future development for this field. A synthesis of the field of ecological genomics emerges from t...
