Recursos psicológicos

La guía que presentamos es una recopilación de recursos que el Equipo del Servicio de Psicología Aplicada de la UNED puso a disposición de la población durante el confinamiento y la pandemia por COVID-19. Algunos de estos recursos se diseñaron con urgencia y de manera improvisada con el deseo de atender las demandas más inmediatas que muchos de nuestros conciudadanos nos hicieron llegar ante la situación de incertidumbre y miedo que la pandemia estaba generando. A pesar de la urgencia con la que estos recursos fueron diseñados, se trató de un trabajo profesional, pensado, intenso y riguroso en el que todo el Equipo de nuestro Servicio y muchos otros colaboradores pusieron desintere...

Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain

  • Publisher: Springer

This book examines the effects of Jewish conversions to Christianity in late medieval Spanish society. Ingram focuses on these converts and their descendants (known as conversos) not as Judaizers, but as Christian humanists, mystics and evangelists, who attempt to create a new society based on quietist religious practice, merit, and toleration. His narrative takes the reader on a journey from the late fourteenth-century conversions and the first blood purity laws (designed to marginalize conversos), through the early sixteenth-century Erasmian and radical mystical movements, to a Counter-Reformation environment in which conversos become the advocates for pacifism and concordance. His account ends at the court of Philip IV, where growing intolerance towards Madrid’s converso courtiers is subtly attacked by Spain’s greatest painter, Diego Velázquez, in his work, Los Borrachos. Finally, Ingram examines the historiography of early modern Spain, in which he argues the converso reform phenomenon continues to be underexplored.

Muslims in Spain, 1492-1814

"In Muslims in Spain, 1492-1814: Living and Negotiating in the Land of the Infidel, Eloy Martín-Corrales surveys Hispano-Muslim relations from the late fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries, a period of chronic hostilities. Nonetheless there were thousands of Muslims in Spain during this time: ambassadors, exiles, merchants, converts, and travelers. Their negotiating strategies and the necessary support they found on both shores of the Mediterranean prove that relations between Spaniards and Muslims were based on reasons of state and a pragmatism that generated intense ties, both political and economic. These increased enormously after the peace treaties that Spain signed with Muslim countries between 1767 and 1791"--

As Industry 4.0 brings on a new bout of transformation and fundamental changes in various industries, the traditional manufacturing and production methods are falling to the wayside. Industrial processes must embrace modern technology and the most recent trends to keep up with the times. With “smart factories”; the automation of information and data; and the inclusion of IoT, AI technologies, robotics, and cloud computing comes new challenges to tackle. These changes are creating new threats in security, reliability, the regulations around legislation and standardization of technologies, malfunctioning devices or operational disruptions, and more. These effects span a variety of industri...

Al sur de Tarifa

Los hechos geográficos y los acontecimientos históricos han creado entre Marruecos y España, a través de los siglos, un cúmulo de problemas, sentimientos y visiones sumamente contradictorios. Conquistas y reconquistas, guerras y convivencias, atracciones y rechazos, influjos recíprocos y distanciamientos culturales, memorias exaltantes y recuerdos amargos, han ido suscitando unas imágenes equívocas que han dificultado sobremanera el entendimiento entre ambos países. Nuestra relación histórica ha sido, al mismo tiempo, íntima y conflictiva; y la proximidad física ha existido al lado de la dificultad de comprensión. Entre la indecisa luz que tantas contradicciones mantiene sobre unos y otros, vaga siempre, cual una sombra, el malentendido sobre el "otro", que está tan cerca y tan lejos...Este libro, cuyo autor no es un historiador sino un diplomático observador, constituye un intento sincero de ver, con la claridad posible, algo de lo que ha sucedido y sucede con nuestro íntimo vecino histórico, y contribuir así, aunque sea un poco, a deshacer un malentendido secular. En pocas palabras: ver qué pasa Al sur de Tarifa. [Texto de la editorial].

  • Publisher: CRC Press

This book presents analyses of pattern in music from different computational and mathematical perspectives. A central purpose of music analysis is to represent, discover, and evaluate repeated structures within single pieces or within larger corpora of related pieces. In the chapters of this book, music corpora are structured as monophonic melodies, polyphony, or chord sequences. Patterns are represented either extensionally as locations of pattern occurrences in the music, or intensionally as sequences of pitch or chord features, rhythmic profiles, geometric point sets, and logical expressions. The chapters cover both deductive analysis, where music is queried for occurrences of a known pat...

Fiscal Policies for Development and Climate Action

This report provides actionable advice on how to design and implement fiscal policies for both development and climate action. Building on more than two decades of research in development and environmental economics, it argues that well-designed environmental tax reforms are especially valuable in developing countries, where they can reduce emissions, increase domestic revenues, and generate positive welfare effects such as cleaner water, safer roads, and improvements in human health. Moreover, these reforms need not harm competitiveness. New empirical evidence from Indonesia and Mexico suggests that under certain conditions, raising fuel prices can actually increase firm productivity. Finally, the report discusses the role of fiscal policy in strengthening resilience to climate change. It provides evidence that preventive public investments and measures to build fiscal buffers can help safeguard stability and growth in the face of rising climate risks. In this way, environmental tax reforms and climate risk-management strategies can lay the much-needed fiscal foundation for development and climate action.
