Cooperativas de trabajo asociado, agrarias y sociales, sociedades laborales, ssociaciones, fundaciones, ONGs... son las principales manifestaciones de un tercer sector social en ebullición conocido como la economía social, cuya fuerte expansión en España y en el mundo en las últimas décadas no sólo ha respondido a razones de auto-organización de la sociedad civil para satisfacer sus necesidades colectivas, dadas las insuficiencias de la economía pública y de la economía privada capitalista, sino también a la voluntad de instaurar una economía más acorde con los valores de democracia real y de igualdad social. Esta realidad socioeconómica conforma un objeto de estudio de creciente atención por parte de la comunidad científica, también de la española. En este último contexto se sitúa la presente obra, la cual analiza la investigación universitaria en economía social producida en España, a través de las tesis doctorales. Incluye, también, un exhaustivo catálogo de tales tesis, que constituye una excelente herramienta para estudiar y valorar esta parte de las ciencias sociales.
El León durmiente es una aproximación a los registros básicos con el que el republicanismo, la democracia y el federalismo concibieron España, como Estado y como nación, en el período que va desde las Cortes de Cádiz hasta la guerra civil en 1936. Desde la historia cultural de la política, y de un modo sintético, el lector se encontrará con una creciente delimitación de los campos liberal, democrático y republicano, donde se observa una pluralidad de modos y maneras de ser en cada uno de ellos. Se podría decir que el centro de la exposición reside en la idea de que son los plurales los que delimitan y decantan las relaciones entre liberalismo, republicanismo, democracia y f...

In the nineteenth century, the search for the artistic, architectural and written monuments promoted by the French State with the aim to build a unified nation transcending regional specificities, also fostered the development of local or regional identitary consciousness. In Roussillon, this distinctive consciousness relied on a basically cultural concept of nation epitomised mainly by the Catalan language – Roussillon being composed of Catalan counties annexed to France in 1659. In The Antiquarians of the Nation, Francesca Zantedeschi explores how the works of Roussillon's archaeologists and philologists, who retrieved and enhanced the Catalan specificities of the region, contributed to the early stages of a ‘national’ (Catalan) cultural revival, and galvanised the implicit debate between (French) national history and incipient regional studies.
Researchers working in many fields of psychology and neuroscience are interested in the temporal structure of experience, as well as the experience of time, at scales of a few milliseconds up to a few seconds as well as days, months, years, and beyond. This Research Topic supposes that broadly speaking, the field of "time psychology" can be organized by distinguishing between "perceptual" and "conceptual" time-scales. Dealing with conceptual time: "mental time travel," also called mental simulation, self-projection, episodic-semantic memory, prospection/foresight, allows humans (and perhaps other animals) to imagine and plan events and experiences in their personal futures, based in large pa...
