The Conservation Reserve Program in the Presence of a Working Land Alternative: Implications for Environmental Quality, Program Participation, and Income Transfer, August 2005

The United States has invested large sums of resources in multiple conservation programs for agriculture over the past century. In this paper we focus on the impacts of program interactions. Specifically, using an integrated economic and bio-physical modeling framework, we consider the impacts of the presence of working land programs on a land retirement for an important agricultural region—the Upper Mississippi River Basin (UMRB). Compared to a land retirement only program, we find that the presence of a working land program for conservation tillage results in significantly lower predicted signups for land retirement at a given rental rate. We also find that the presence of both a large working land and land retirement program can result in more environmental benefits and income transfers than a land retirement only program can achieve.

La identidad nacional italiana en la prensa española. Prueba piloto para el proyecto de investigación de tesis doctoral

Este trabajo representa una prueba piloto de una parte del futuro trabajo de investigación al que me dedicaré durante el doctorado.Se trata concretamente de poner a prueba ciertas estructuras lingüísticas escogidaspara el análisis de artículos periodísticos, a través de un análisis de una muestrareducida de 20 artículos del periódico El País.El análisis de prensa tiene como objetivo, dentro del marco más amplio de la futuratesis doctoral, identificar la construcción lingüística de la identidad nacional italianadentro de la prensa española, describirla e identificar las estrategias discursivas que la rigen.Esta prueba piloto ha demostrado que las estructuras lingüísticas escogidas eranapropiadas (temas, predicación del sujeto, adjetivación, adverbios, colecciones desentidos, figuras del discurso y posición del enunciante con respecto al discurso), pero también ha sacado a luz la necesidad de una metodología de análisis constantementeredefinida según los textos que constituyen el corpus, una redefinición in itinereconstante.También se ha podido describir los elementos que componen el concepto de la identidad nacional italiana tal y como se representa en la prensa española (aunque hay que recordar que la muestra es demasiado pequeña para ser considerada representativa).Finalmente, se ha identificado una coherencia global en los artículos de la muestra en servir una macro-estrategia de transformación de la identidad nacional italiana que hemos definido como metamorfosis a peor, desde un pasado glorioso hacia un presente y futuro próximo de decadencia.
