El trabajo aborda los antecedentes históricos de las políticas de alimentación escolar en la España del siglo XX, a través del análisis del corpus normativo y de los textos y materiales que generaron organismos nacionales e internacionales que participaron en su implementación. La investigación muestra el impacto que tuvo el contexto internacional y en particular los acuerdos que se alcanzaron durante el primer franquismo con los Estados Unidos y con la FAO y UNICEF, en el desarrollo de dichas políticas. El carácter filantrópico de las primeras cantinas fue sustituido por una creciente implicación del ámbito público, al incorporar la alimentación de los escolares como objetivo de las políticas sanitarias y educativas de la Segunda República. La Ley de Educación Primaria de 1945 permitió la gradual institucionalización de la alimentación escolar. La creación en 1954 del Servicio Escolar de Alimentación y Nutrición y la necesidad de coordinar la ayuda norteamericana facilitaron la implementación de programas como el de Productos Lácteos pro Bienestar Infantil y Social o el de Educación en Alimentación y Nutrición, lo cual permitió implantar el complemento alimenticio en escolares y llevar a cabo un conjunto de actividades educativas coordinadas encaminadas a mejorar su alimentación.

This thesis uses models of firm-heterogeneity to complete empirical analyses in economic history and agricultural economics. In Chapter 2, a theoretical model of firm heterogeneity is used to derive a statistic that summarizes the welfare gains from the introduction of a new technology. The empirical application considers the use of mechanical steam power in the Canadian manufacturing sector during the late nineteenth century. I exploit exogenous variation in geography to estimate several parameters of the model. My results indicate that the use of steam power resulted in a 15.1 percent increase in firm-level productivity and a 3.0-5.2 percent increase in aggregate welfare. Chapter 3 considers various policy alternatives to price ceiling legislation in the market for production quotas in the dairy farming sector in Quebec. I develop a dynamic model of the demand for quotas with farmers that are heterogeneous in their marginal cost of milk production. The econometric analysis uses farm-level data and estimates a parameter of the theoretical model that is required for the counterfactual experiments. The results indicate that the price of quotas could be reduced to the ceiling price through a 4.16 percent expansion of the aggregate supply of quotas, or through moderate trade liberalization of Canadian dairy products. In Chapter 4, I study the relationship between farm-level productivity and participation in the Commercial Export Milk (CEM) program. I use a difference-in-difference research design with inverse propensity weights to test for causality between participation in the CEM program and total factor productivity (TFP). I find a positive correlation between participation in the CEM program and TFP, however I find no statistically significant evidence that the CEM program affected TFP.

Problématique : L'allergie au lait de vache (ALV) est reconnue comme une condition transitoire qui disparaît chez la majorité des enfants avant l’âge de 3-5 ans, mais des données récentes révèlent une persistance de l’ALV. Les enfants souffrant d’une ALV sont à risque d’apports insuffisants en calcium et en vitamine D, deux nutriments impliqués dans la santé osseuse. Une première étude transversale portant sur la santé osseuse d’enfants prépubères ALV a observé que la densité osseuse (DMO) lombaire était significativement inférieure à celle d’enfants sans allergie au lait de vache (SALV). Objectifs : Sur la base de ces résultats, nous désirons documenter l’évolution longitudinale de la santé osseuse, du statut en vitamine D, des apports en calcium et en vitamine D et de l’adhérence à la supplémentation des enfants ALV (n=36) et de comparer ces données aux enfants SALV (n=19). Résultats : Le gain annualisé de la DMO lombaire est similaire entre les enfants ALV et SALV. Bien qu’il n’y ait pas de différence significative entre les deux groupes, la DMO lombaire des enfants ALV demeure cependant inférieure à celle des témoins. Qui plus est, le score-Z de la DMO du corps entier tend à être inférieur chez les enfants-cas comparé aux témoins. Au suivi, la concentration de 25OHD et le taux d’insuffisance en vitamine D sont similaires entre les deux groupes tout comme les apports en calcium et en vitamine D. Davantage d’enfants ALV prennent un supplément de calcium au suivi comparativement au temps initial (42% vs. 49%, p<0,05), mais le taux d’adhérence à la supplémentation a diminué à 4 jours/semaine. Conclusion : Une évaluation plus précoce ainsi qu’une prise en charge de la santé osseuse des enfants ALV pourraient être indiquées afin de modifier l’évolution naturelle de leur santé osseuse. Les résultats justifient aussi le suivi étroit des apports en calcium et vitamine D par une nutritionniste et la nécessité d'intégrer la supplémentation dans le plan de traitement de ces enfants et d’assurer une surveillance de l’adhérence à la supplémentation.

This systematic review discusses data on the dietary intake of preschool children living in the Mediterranean countries of the European Union, including the comparison with a Mediterranean-like diet and the association with nutritional status. Specifically, data from the multinational European Identification and Prevention on Dietary and life style induced health effects in children and infants (IDEFICS) study and national studies, such as the Estudo do Padrão Alimentar e de Crescimento Infantil (EPACI) study and Geração XXI cohort in Portugal, ALimentando la SAlud del MAñana (ALSALMA) study in Spain, Étude des Déterminants pré-et postnatals précoces du développement et de la santé de l'ENfant (EDEN) cohort in France, Nutrintake 636 study in Italy, and Growth, Exercise and Nutrition Epidemiological Study in preSchoolers (GENESIS) cohort in Greece, were analyzed. In the majority of countries, young children consumed fruit and vegetables quite frequently, but also consumed sugared beverages and snacks. High energy and high protein intakes mainly from dairy products were found in the majority of countries. The majority of children also consumed excessive sodium intake. Early high prevalence of overweight and obesity was found, and both early consumption of energy-dense foods and overweight seemed to track across toddler and preschool ages. Most children living in the analyzed countries showed low adherence to a Mediterranean-like diet, which in turn was associated with being overweight/obese. Unhealthier diets were associated with lower maternal educational level and parental unemployment. Programs promoting adherence of young children to the traditional Mediterranean diet should be part of a multi-intervention strategy for the prevention and treatment of pediatric overweight and obesity.
