Antecedentes históricos de la medicina legal en España

L'obra està plantejada com una posada en antecedents per a l'actual disciplina de Medicina legal en l'àmbit de l'estat espanyol. Sense la voluntat de fer un estudi exhaustiu, que hauria estat massa extens, l'autor proposa l'estudi d'aquesta disciplina des de l'època visigoda i fins la meitat del segle XIX, moment en que la Medicina legal ja té les bases que seran les arrels de la disciplina actual.

Economic and legal analysis of mandatory non-recourse mortgages with applications to Spain

“The liquidity crisis of the Spanish banks is largely due to the lack of confidence of foreign investors and, therefore, the changes that occur in the legislation should not affect the credibility, stability, legal certainty, predictability that markets expect”.Sergio Nasarre (2011)In the current situation of economic crisis, many people have found they can no longer pay back the mortgage loans that were granted to them in order to purchase a dwelling. It is for this reason that, in light of the economic, political and social problems this poses, our paper studies the state of the Spanish real-estate system and of foreclosure, paying special attention to the solution that has been proposed recently as the best option for debtors that cannot make their mort-gage payments: non-recourse mortgaging. We analyze this proposal from legal and economic perspectives in order to fully understand the effects that this change could imply. At the same time, this paper will also examine several alternatives we believe would ameliorate the situation of mortgage-holders, among them legal reforms, mortgage insurance, and non-recourse mortgaging itself.

Cobertura y desamparo: garantías jurídicas de los españoles en el Perú (1870-1945) = Coverage and helplessness: legal guarantees of the spanish in Peru (1870-1945)

The archives of the Prefecture of the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs provide a perspective from which to reconstruct the broad range of legal circumstances in which Spanish residents in various regions of the country find themselves immersed (assets of relatives who have died without wills or family in Peru, political conflicts, legal problems -whether criminal or civil as a result of business activities- or the requested intervention ofconsular authorities when decisions considered detrimental to their compatriots are made by prefects and sub-prefects). The legal framework protecting Spanish nationals in Peru is analysed to understand the mechanisms of immigration in the country and the mechanisms that led them to keep their Spanish nationality, even after establishing wide-reaching family and business interests

Legal issues in promoting FOSS in R+D projects - Policy, Organisation and Management

Creating and using FLOSS in R+D projects raises several legal issues, which need to be managed as soon as possible - preferably during the project planning stage. Challenges in the areas of project structure and policy, licenses and licensing, exploitation strategies, community management, and FLOSS-friendliness in general all have their legal aspects, which are commented here. Some recommendations are made for assisting in the use of FLOSS in R+D projects, especially in multiple party consortiums.

Els serveis socials en l'administració comarcal : marc legal i institucional

El govern de la Comuniata Autònoma de Catalunya ha reinstituït l'organització comarcal que ja havia implantat la Generalitat durant la II República, Ara però, s'ha otorgat als Consells Comarcals, com a òrgan de govern de les comarques, un marcat caràcter institucional i administratiu. Per tant, l'administració comarcal a Catalunya s'adscriu entre les administracions locals, i com un nou nivell intermedi entre el municipi i la província (mentre aquesta subsisteix) o bé la Comunitat Autònoma. Aquesta modificació del model estatal d'Administracions Públiques, evidentment, condiciona l'organització del sistema de serveis socials.El present treball pretén estudiar, a través del repositoir legislatiu, el marc institucional en el qual s'organitzen els serveis social d'àmbit comarcal. Això ens ha de permetre conèixer més el context pròxim en el què actuen els equips i professionals del medi comarcal. Ells són els principals destinataris d¡aquesta proposta d'anàlisis: però igualment pot ajudar als altres professionals a reflexionar sobre el procés d'estructuració dels serveis de benestar social que s'està desenvolupant a Catalunya

Nuevo marco legal sobre prestaciones económicas: anotaciones críticas a la Ley 13/2006 + despliegue

Las prestaciones económicas son un complemento necesario y, a menudo, un soporte indispensable para los objetivos de inclusión y de autonomía que procura el sistema de Servicios Sociales. El Parlament de Catalunya aprobó hace un año la primera ley que regula específicamente las prestaciones de carácter económico vinculadas al sistema, y que se añade, por tanto, al ordenamiento jurídico de los Servicios Sociales. Este artículo quiere ser una presentación comentada de dicha ley –incluyendo su despliegue hasta la fecha2 – haciendo lo que se podría decir una lectura crítica y desde una perspectiva de Servicios Sociales. El análisis repasa, a grandes rasgos, los aspectos más importantes de la ley, e intenta hacer compatible una exposición pedagógica con una interpretación más personal de búsqueda de significado.

Net Neutrality: Measuring the Problem, Assessing the Legal Risks

Network neutrality is a growing policy controversy. Traffic management techniques affect not only high-speed, high-money content, but by extension all other content too. Internet regulators and users may tolerate much more discrimination in the interests of innovation. For instance, in the absence of regulatory oversight, ISPs could use Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to block some content altogether, if they decide it is not to the benefit of ISPs, copyright holders, parents or the government. ISP blocking is currently widespread in controlling spam email, and in some countries in blocking sexually graphic illegal images. In 1999 this led to scrutiny of foreclosure of Instant Messaging and video and cable-telephony horizontal merger. Fourteen years later, there were in 2013 net neutrality laws implemented in Slovenia, the Netherlands, Chile and Finland, regulation in the United States and Canada , co-regulation in Norway, and self-regulation in Japan, the United Kingdom and many other European countries . Both Germany and France in mid-2013 debated new net neutrality legislation, and the European Commission announced on 11 September 2013 that it would aim to introduce legislation in early 2014. This paper analyses these legal developments, and in particular the difficulty in assessing reasonable traffic management and ‘specialized’ (i.e. unregulated) faster services in both EU and US law. It also assesses net neutrality law against the international legal norms for user privacy and freedom of expression

The methodological criteria of counterpropositions within the Roman social legal framework

Partiendo de la difundida distinción, entre unos ordenamientos jurídicos abiertos, como el derecho inglés y el anglo americano, que se vinculan en el pasado al Derecho Romano, y otros cerrados o codificados, como los derechos del continente europeo, y tras detenernos en el origen terminológico de ambos sistemas y en su rígida contraposición, se procura destacar en este trabajo que Roma y su Derecho tampoco abrazan en toda su pureza, un sistema abierto.
