Las narrativas del trabajo (versión 0.2)

Este texto recrea en forma de juego la idea de que la mujer se encuentra en un continuo de vida-trabajo. No existe "el ángel del hogar" y, por lo tanto, no hay representación de las tareas domésticas, pero éstas son un continuo que estructuran la vida de "b", ya que exigen un constante cuidado y orden. La teórica independencia de la mujer respecto a lo doméstico y el ser autónoma le han hecho adoptar el trabajo como forma de vida. Esta contribución cuestiona el concepto de trabajo y pone en evidencia las carencias de los términos "flexibilidad", "autonomía", "individualidad", etc.

El crèdit a la Catalunya dels segles XVI i XVII ; un estat de qüestió

Aquest treball és un recull de les principals aportacions que diferents autors realitzen en torn del crèdit durant l’alta edat moderna a Catalunya, en especial al món agrari. Aquests són dos segles d’endeutament creixent on diferents despeses que durant els segles anteriors estaven previstes per l’economia familiar esdevenen motiu de crisis. Una característica clau d’aquest període també és la creixent diferenciació social i els canvis en el model productiu pagès que aquest procés va comportar.

Between specialization and globalization. The marketing of agrarian products and its environmental impacts seen from a historical perspective: the province of Barcelona in the mid-nineteenth century

Ecological economics has five good reasons to consider that economic globalisation, spurred by commercial and financial fluxes, to be one of the main driving forces responsible for causing environmental degradation to our planet. The first, is the energy consumption and the socio-environmental impacts which long-distance haulage entails. The second, is the ever-increasing flow of goods to far-away destinations which renders their recycling practically impossible. This is particularly significant, because it prevents the metabolic lock of the nutrients present in food and other agrarian products from taking place. The third, is that the high degree of specialization attained in agriculture, forestry, cattle, mining and industry in each region, generates deleterious effects not only on the eco-landscape structure of the uses of the soil, but on the capability to provide habitat and environmental functions to maintain biodiversity as well

Modelling state dependence and feedback effects between poverty, employment and parental home emancipation among European youth

Youth is one of the phases in the life-cycle when some of the most decisivelife transitions take place. Entering the labour market or leaving parentalhome are events with important consequences for the economic well-beingof young adults. In this paper, the interrelationship between employment,residential emancipation and poverty dynamics is studied for eight Europeancountries by means of an econometric model with feedback effects. Resultsshow that youth poverty genuine state dependence is positive and highly significant.Evidence proves there is a strong causal effect between poverty andleaving home in Scandinavian countries, however, time in economic hardshipdoes not last long. In Southern Europe, instead, youth tend to leave theirparental home much later in order to avoid falling into a poverty state that ismore persistent. Past poverty has negative consequences on the likelihood ofemployment.
