La prostitución en la España contemporánea
Cuando la prostitución es actualmente objeto en España de una tolerancia de hecho y cuando algunos abogan a favor de su plena legalización, conviene echar una mirada hacia atrás. La historia de la prostitución en España en la época contemporánea nos muestra la alternancia histórica de diversos modelos sociales en relación con este fenómeno, cada uno con sus características propias: abolicionismo, reglamentarismo, abolicionismo seguido de una tolerancia de hecho que vacila entre las diversas opciones y el burdel en sus distintas variantes.
Religion and Medicine in the Middle Ages
Medicine and religion were intertwined in the middle ages; here are studies of specific instances. The sheer extent of crossover - medics as religious men, religious men as medics, medical language at the service of preaching and moral-theological language deployed in medical writings - is the driving force behind these studies.

These communities are very diverse and amongst others include: technical enthusiasts, activist groups, researchers from various disciplines, start ups, large enterprises, public authorities, banks, financial regulators, business men, investors, and also criminals. The scientific community adapted relatively slowly to this emerging and fast-moving field of cryptographic currencies and consensus ledgers.
