Métodos alternativos de inducción de muda en ponedoras: efectos sobre la pérdida de peso vivo, la regresión del ovario y del oviducto y los resultados productivos

La producción de huevos disminuye a medida que las ponedoras envejecen. Un método para contrarrestar, al menos parcialmente, esta evolución natural del rendimiento productivo es la muda inducida. El retorno a la puesta de las gallinas tras la muda se debe a un proceso de rejuvenecimiento fisiológico de las aves, relacionado con la regresión del ovario y del oviducto durante la muda, siendo la pérdida de peso corporal decisiva para la regresión de estos órganos. En este trabajo estudiamos los efectos de 3 dietas distintas, utilizadas para inducir la muda (salvado de trigo, cebada y pienso comercial suministrado de forma restringida), sobre la pérdida de peso vivo, sobre la regresión del ovario y del oviducto, y sobre los rendimientos productivos posteriores, en gallinas ponedoras de 2 estirpes comerciales, alojadas con dos densidades diferentes (4 y 6 gallinas, por jaula). Se trabajó con 192 gallinas de cada estirpe, sacrificándose 36 animales (18+18) para poder evaluar la regresión del ovario-oviducto. La estirpe no tuvo influencia significativa sobre el porcentaje de pérdida de peso corporal, aunque sí sobre la pérdida de peso del oviducto y sobre la intensidad de puesta (IP) del segundo ciclo productivo. La menor pérdida de peso se produjo con el salvado y con la cebada, aunque la intensidad de puesta (IP) no varió entre tratamientos, excepto en gallinas ligeras mudadas con salvado de trigo, que alcanzaron una IP significativamente menor. Tampoco tuvo efecto significativo el número de gallinas por jaula sobre la IP, ni sobre la pérdida de peso. Egg production lows according layers get older. Induced moulting is a method to counteract this, at least partially. Production after moulting is due a process of physiologic rejuvenation of birds, connected with ovary and oviduct regression during the moult. Body weight loss is decisive for this process. We studied the effect of three different feed used to induce moulting (wheat bran, barley and restricted layer diet) on body weight loss, ovary and oviduct regression, and performance after moulting. 192 layers of two strains were used, housed in cages with 4 ó 6 birds per cage. 36 layers were euthanized to evaluate the reproductive tissues regression. Strain had not significative influence on body weight loss, but it had on ovary and oviduct weight losses, and on egg production (%) of second cycle of laying. The less body weight loss was in layers moulted with wheat bran and of that with barley. Egg production (%) was not different between treatments. Number of bird per cage had not significative effect on production and body, ovary and oviduct weight losses.

Historia de la protección del patrimonio arquitectónico en España. 1933-1985

El trabajo de investigación que presentamos tiene como principal objetivo, la recopilación, el registro, el análisis y la reflexión sobre una época, tan trascendental como poco estudiada desde el ámbito arquitectónico, como es el período comprendido entre las dos normas de mayor relevancia en relación a la protección del Patrimonio Histórico Español del último siglo. Nos referimos a la Ley sobre Defensa, Conservación y Acrecentamiento del Patrimonio Histórico Nacional de 13 de mayo de 1933 y la Ley 13/1985, de 25 de junio, del Patrimonio Histórico Español. A través de la investigación realizada, se pretende aportar una visión integral de esta etapa, desde el enfoque arquitectónico, fundamentando la misma en el desarrollo de pautas metodológicas, abordadas desde la recopilación exhaustiva del material bibliográfico y documental para su posterior análisis. A partir de esta fase inicial, se han identificado los nexos comunes entre los estudios existentes sobre el patrimonio monumental español previos a la Guerra Civil y las investigaciones dedicadas a la historia de las últimas décadas del siglo XX. De esta forma, se ha procurado trazar un “puente” documental, con el que trasponer virtualmente el vacío bibliográfico existente. Históricamente, la protección del patrimonio histórico edificado y urbano, ha preocupado y ocupado a multitud de profesionales que, desde disciplinas dispares, han emprendido la tarea ímproba de comprender y explicar cuáles han sido los avatares, históricos y legales, que han marcado su evolución. Tal preocupación ha generado una bibliografía ingente y diversa, desde la protección formal y precisa, sobre uno u otro material, pasando por el marco historiográfico de las tendencias conservacionistas y las teorías decimonónicas, las filigranas formadas por las cuantiosas normas promulgadas desde la Novísima Recopilación, hasta la incidencia del planeamiento urbano en la tutela del patrimonio, incluidas la trama de competencias y yuxtaposiciones administrativas. Documentos de toda índole y profundidad científica, que como mosaicos hispanomusulmanes, dibujan el panorama patrimonial en el que la criba de material resulta una tarea, en ocasiones, inextricable. El título de este documento, en sí mismo, circunscribe la materia que ha sido el objeto de análisis durante el proceso de investigación, el Patrimonio Arquitectónico Monumental. El eje o núcleo basal de estudio se sitúa en los bienes inmuebles, los edificados, que, a su vez, ostentan la declaración de Bien de Interés Cultural, y que, por ende, pertenecen al Patrimonio Histórico Español. La metodología de trabajo se ha desarrollado de forma concéntrica, desde aspectos generales de la protección del patrimonio monumental, como el marco legal que antecede a la promulgación de la Ley de 1933, y el estado previo de los bienes susceptibles de ser preservados. Reconocemos en el ámbito legislativo, el fundamento orgánico que regula y dirige la tutela del patrimonio histórico español y la acción conservadora, y que delimita el ámbito a partir del cual se condiciona el devenir de los bienes culturales. Del esquema de situación surgido del análisis previo, se han detectado los factores claves en la transición hacia la Ley de Patrimonio Histórico Español; la evolución conceptual del “Patrimonio”, como apreciación genérica, y el testimonio de este progreso a través de los valores históricos, artísticos y culturales. El presente documento de investigación, consta de una primera fase, correspondiente al Capítulo 1, que se ha desarrollado a partir, principalmente, de la ordenación jurídica que rige el Patrimonio Histórico Español, a través de leyes, decretos, órdenes y disposiciones anexas, complementado con el material bibliográfico dedicado a la revisión histórica del proceso legal de la protección del patrimonio histórico-artístico. Si bien no ha sido nuestro propósito realizar un estudio pormenorizado del volumen jurídico e histórico que precede a la Ley de 1933, y que da inicio al período de estudio de la presente investigación, sí lo ha sido centrarnos en la elaboración de un extracto de aquellos elementos de la doctrina de mayor relevancia y repercusión en la protección del patrimonio histórico-artístico y/o monumental español. A lo largo de este estudio hemos comprobado lo que algunos juristas ya habían planteado, acerca de la profunda dispersión, ramificación, y diversificación de esfuerzos, tanto en la legislación específica como en la urbanística. Esta disgregación se ha extendido al ámbito de las medidas de reconocimiento caracterizado por la elaboración de múltiples catálogos e inventarios, con desigual transcendencia, alcance y utilidad. El resultado ha sido una división de esfuerzos, desdibujando el objetivo y convirtiendo la acción del reconocimiento en múltiples empresas inconexas y de escasa trascendencia. Nuestra investigación avanza en el análisis de la protección del patrimonio, como concepto globalizador, con el desarrollo del Capítulo 2, en el que se incluye una serie de mecanismos directos e indirectos que, individualmente, suelen carecer de la fuerza efectiva que muchos de los monumentos o conjuntos monumentales requieren para sobrevivir al paso del tiempo y sus circunstancias. En primer lugar, en este segundo capítulo nos hemos centrado, específicamente, en el mecanismo regulado por la Ley del Patrimonio Histórico Español, y el régimen general de protección implementado a partir de su promulgación en 1985. En especial, consideraremos la declaración de Interés Cultural como grado máximo de protección y tutela de un bien, y su posterior inscripción en el Registro General correspondiente, dependiente del Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte. Este mecanismo representa el instrumento por antonomasia que condensa las facultades de tutela del Estado sobre un bien del que se considera poseedor y aglutinador de valores “culturales” —como cohesión de los valores históricos, artísticos, sociales, etc. — representativos de la idiosincrasia española, y sobre el cual no existen dudas sobre la necesidad de garantizar su permanencia a través de su conservación. En segunda instancia, hemos analizado el Planeamiento Urbanístico, como aglutinador de valores culturales contenidos en la ciudad y como contenedor de los efectos generados por el hombre a partir de su interacción con el medio en el que habita y se relaciona. En tercer término, hemos recopilado y estudiado la concepción de los catálogos, como noción genérica de protección. Desde hace siglos, este género ha estado definido como una herramienta capaz de intervenir en la protección del patrimonio histórico, aunque de una manera difícilmente cuantificable, mediante la identificación, enumeración y descripción de una tipología concreta de monumentos o grupos de ellos, contribuyendo al reconocimiento de los valores cualitativos contenidos en éstos. El tercer capítulo analiza el mecanismo directo de tutela que ejerce la Administración en el patrimonio monumental. La declaración de monumentalidad o de Bien de Interés Cultural y su inclusión en el Registro General de Protección. La protección teórica y la protección jurídica de un monumento, analizadas hasta el momento, resultan tan necesarias como pueriles si no van seguidas de su consumación. En el caso de este tipo de patrimonio monumental, toda acción que tenga como objeto resguardar los valores implícitos en un bien mueble o inmueble, y en su materia, implica el cumplimiento de la protección. Por último, el cuarto capítulo se convierte en el punto culminante, y por ende crucial, del proceso de protección del Patrimonio Cultural, el de la consumación de la intervención. La teoría, la crítica, la normativa y hasta las doctrinas más radicales en materia de protección del patrimonio cultural, carecen de sentido si no las suceden los hechos, la acción, en antítesis a la omisión o la desidia. De ello ha dado pruebas elocuentes la propia historia en multitud de ocasiones con la destrucción, por indolencia o desconocimiento, de importantes vestigios del patrimonio arquitectónico español. Por este motivo, y para ser consecuentes con nuestra tesis hemos recuperado, concentrado y analizado la documentación de obra de tres monumentos imprescindibles del patrimonio construido (la Catedral de Burgos, el Palacio-Castillo de la Aljafería en Zaragoza y la Muralla de Lugo). En ocasiones, al examinar retrospectivamente las intervenciones en monumentos de gran envergadura, física y cultural como catedrales o murallas, algunos investigadores han tenido la sospecha o prevención de que las actuaciones no han seguido un plan de actuación premeditado, sino que han sido el resultado de impulsos o arrebatos inconexos producto de la urgencia por remediar algún tipo de deterioro. En oposición a esto, y a través del estudio de las intervenciones llevadas a cabo en los tres monumentos mencionados, hemos podido corroborar que, a excepción de intervenciones de emergencia fruto de circunstancias puntuales, existe coherencia desde el proceso de análisis de situación de un bien a la designación de prioridades, que ha regido el proceso restaurador a lo largo de dos siglos. La evolución de las intervenciones realizadas en los monumentos analizados ha estado definida, además de por su complejidad, magnitud y singularidad constructiva, por el devenir de su estructura y su uso. En conclusión, la efectividad de la protección del patrimonio cultural español, radica en la concomitancia de múltiples aspectos, entre ellos: el cumplimiento acertado de las normas vigentes, específicas y accesorias; el conocimiento del bien y de sus valores históricos, artísticos, y culturales; su catalogación o inclusión en los inventarios correspondientes; el compromiso de los agentes e instituciones de los cuales depende; la planificación de las tareas necesarias que garanticen tanto la salvaguarda estructural como la conservación de sus valores; y la incorporación de un plan de seguimiento que permita detectar eventuales peligros que atenten contra su conservación. Pero, la situación óptima estaría dada por un sistema en el que estos mecanismos —regulaciones específicas y urbanísticas, Declaraciones de Bien de Interés Cultural, Catálogos e Inventarios, etc. — funcionaran, de forma parcial o total, como una maquinaria, donde cada pieza operara con independencia relativa, pero en sintonía con los demás engranajes. Hasta el momento, la realidad dista mucho de esta situación, convirtiendo esta convivencia en una utopía. Tanto los legisladores, como las autoridades y los técnicos involucrados, deben tener presente que, de ellos, de los parámetros asignados por la legislación, de la implementación de los instrumentos estipulados por ésta y de las decisiones tomadas por cada uno de los poderes directivos de los órganos competentes, dependerá el alcance y efectividad de la protección, ya que en cada vertiente existe, en mayor o menor medida, un porcentaje de interpretación y subjetividad. ABSTRACT The research that we present has as the main objective to collect, record, analyzed and reflection on a time, that was little studied from the architectural field. It is the period between the two laws of most relevance to the protection of Spanish Historical Heritage of the last century. We refer to the Law on the Protection and Conservation of National Heritage of 1933 and Law 16/1985 of Spanish Historical Heritage. Through this research, it aims to provide a comprehensive view of the stage from the architectural approach, basing it on the development of methodological guidelines. The investigation was initiated by the bibliography and documentary for further analysis. After this initial phase, we have identified the common links between existing studies on the Spanish architectural heritage prior to the Civil War and dedicated research into the history of the late twentieth century. Thus, we have tried to draw a documental bridge, with which virtually transpose the gap that has existed. Historically, professionals from diverse disciplines have been worried and busy of the protection of the built and urban heritage. They have undertaken the daunting task of understanding and explaining the historical and legal difficulties, which have marked its evolution. This concern has generated an enormous and diverse literature, from formal and precise protection, in the framework of conservation historiographical trends and nineteenth-century theories. Also, they have studied the impact of urban planning in the protection of heritage, including the competences and administrative juxtapositions. They have generated a lot of documents of all kinds and scientific depth. The title of this document, in itself, circumscribes the matter that has been analyzed during this research process, the Monumental Architectural Heritage. The basal studio is located in the historical buildings, which, in turn, hold the declaration of cultural interest, and thus belong to the Spanish Historical Heritage. The work methodology was developed concentrically from general aspects of the protection of monuments, such as the legal framework that predates the enactment of the 1933 Act, and the previous state of the monuments that should be preserved. We recognize in the legislative sphere, the organic base that regulates and directs the tutelage of Spanish heritage and conservative action. The situation scheme emerged from the previous analysis, and we detected the key factors in the transition to the Spanish Historical Heritage Act; the conceptual evolution of the Heritage as a generic assessment, and witness this progress through historical, artistic and cultural values. This research paper consists of a first phase, corresponding to Chapter 1, which has developed from the legal regulation governing the Spanish Historical Heritage, through laws, decrees, orders and related provisions, supplemented the bibliography dedicated to the historical review of the legal process of protecting historical and artistic heritage. While it was not our intention to conduct a detailed study of the legal and historical volume preceding the 1933 Act, and that started the study period of this investigation, yes he has been focusing on the production of an extract from those elements of the doctrine with greater relevance and impact on the protection of Spanish art-historical and / or architectural heritage. Throughout our study we have seen what some jurists had already raised, about the scattering, branching and diversification of efforts, both in specific law and in urban law. This disaggregation has been extended to the field of recognition measures characterized by the development of multiple catalogs and inventories, with varying significance, scope and usefulness. The result has been a division of efforts, blurring the objective and turning the action of the recognition in multiple attempts little consequence. Our research advances in the analysis of heritage protection, as globalization concept in the Chapter 2, which includes a number of direct and indirect mechanisms that individually, often lack the effective force that many of monuments have required to survive the test of time and circumstances. First, in this second chapter we focused specifically on the mechanism regulated by the Spanish Historical Heritage Act, and the general protection regime implemented since its enactment in 1985 . In particular, we consider the declaration of cultural interest as maximum protection and protection of cultural assets, and their subsequent entry in the relevant General Register under the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports . This mechanism is the instrument par excellence that condenses the powers of state care about a cultural asset, and which represents the cohesion of the historical, artistic, social values , etc. Secondly, we analyzed the Urban Planning, as a unifying cultural value in the city and as a container for the effects caused by man from its interaction with the environment in which he lives and relates. Thirdly, we have collected and studied the origin of catalogs, as generic notion of protection. For centuries, this genre has been defined as a tool to intervene in the protection of historical heritage, although difficult to quantify, through the identification, enumeration and description of a particular typology of monuments, and that contributing to the recognition of qualitative values contained therein. The third chapter analyzes the direct mechanism of protection performed by the Administration in the monuments with the statement of Cultural asset and inclusion in the General Protection Register. The theoretical and legal protection of a monument is as necessary as puerile if they are not followed by intervention. For this type of architectural heritage, any action which has the aim to safeguard the values implicit in the cultural asset involves protection compliance. Finally, the fourth chapter becomes the highlight, because it treated of the end process of the cultural heritage protection, the consummation of the intervention. The theory, the criticism, the rules and even the radical doctrines on the protection of cultural heritage, are meaningless if they do not take place the facts, the action, in antithesis to the omission. The history of the architectural heritage has given eloquent proof by itself. A lot of vestiges have been lost, in many times, for the destruction, through indolence or unknowledge. For this reason, and to be consistent with our thesis, we have collected and analyzed the projects documentation of three monuments (the Burgos Cathedral, the Aljafería Palace-Castle in Zaragoza and the Wall of Lugo). Sometimes, some researchers have suspected that there had not been planning. They suspect that the projects have been the result of different emergency situations. In opposition of this, we confirm that, except for emergency interventions result of specific circumstances, there have been a process of analysis to conclude in the priorities designation, which has guided the restoration process over two centuries. The complexity, magnitude and constructive uniqueness have defined the evolution of intervention. In conclusion, the effectiveness of the protection of Spanish cultural heritage lies in the conjunction of many aspects, including: the successful implementation of existing, specific and ancillary standards; the knowledge of good and its historical, artistic and cultural values; the cataloging and inclusion in the relevant inventories; and the commitment of the actors and institutions on which it depends. These planning tasks are necessary to ensure both structural safeguards as conservation values; and the introduction of a monitoring plan to detect possible dangers that threaten its conservation. But, the optimal situation would be given by a system in which these urban-regulations and specific mechanisms, would work together like a machine, where each piece operated with relative independence, but in tune with the other gears. So far, the reality is far from this situation, turning this coexistence in a utopia. Both legislators and officials and technicians involved must be aware that the effectiveness and scope of protection depends on your insight and commitment.

The Theory of Interhybridity: Socio-political Dimensions and Migration Experiences of Post-communist Western Balkan States

The Western Balkans integration within the EU has started a legal process which is the rejection of former communist legal/political approaches and the transformation of former communist institutions. Indeed, the EU agenda has brought vertical/horizontal integration and Europeanization of national institutions (i.e. shifting power to the EU institutions and international authorities). At this point, it is very crucial to emphasize the fact that the Western Balkans as a whole region has currently an image that includes characteristics of both the Soviet socialism and the European democracy. The EU foreign policies and enlargement strategy for Western Balkans have significant effects on four core factors (i.e. Schengen visa regulations, remittances, asylum and migration as an aggregate process). The convergence/divergence of EU member states’ priorities for migration policies regulate and even shape directly the migration dynamics in migrant sender countries. From this standpoint, the research explores how main migration factors are influenced by political and judicial factors such as; rule of law and democracy score, the economic liberation score, political and human rights, civil society score and citizenship rights in Western Balkan countries. The proposal of interhybridity explores how the hybridization of state and non-state actors within home and host countries can solve labor migration-related problems. The economical and sociopolitical labor-migration model of Basu (2009) is overlapping with the multidimensional empirical framework of interhybridity. Indisputably, hybrid model (i.e. collaboration state and non-state actors) has a catalyst role in terms of balancing social problems and civil society needs. Paradigmatically, it is better to perceive the hybrid model as a combination of communicative and strategic action that means the reciprocal recognition within the model is precondition for significant functionality. This will shape social and industrial relations with moral meanings of communication.

Guilty as charged? The effect of interpreting on interviews with suspects

The ways in which an interpreter affects the processes and, possibly, the outcomes of legal proceedings has formed the focus of much recent research, most of it centred upon courtroom discourse. However comparatively little research has been carried out into the effect of interpreting on the interview with a suspect, despite its 'upstream' position in the legal process and vital importance as evidence. As a speech event in the judicial system, the interview differs radically from that which takes place 'downstream', that is, in court. The interview with suspect represents an entirely different construct, in which a range of registers is apparent, and participants use distinctive means to achieve their institutional goals. When a transcript of an interpreter-mediated interview is read out in court, it is assumed that this is a representation of an event, which is essentially identical to a monolingual interview. This thesis challenges that assumption. Using conservation analytic techniques, it examines data from a corpus of monolingual and interpreter-mediated, taped interviews with suspects, in order to identify potentially significant interactional differences and describe ways in which the interpreter affects the processes and may affect the outcomes of the interview. It is argued that although individually, the interactional differences may appear slight, their cumulative effect is significant, particularly since the primary participants in the event are unaware of the full force of the interpreting effect. Finally, the thesis suggests that the insights provided by linguistic analysis of the interpreting on interviews may provide the basis for training, both for interpreters themselves, and for officers in techniques for interpreter-mediated interviews.

An introduction to forensic linguistics:language in evidence

From the accusation of plagiarism in The Da Vinci Code, to the infamous hoaxer in the Yorkshire Ripper case, the use of linguistic evidence in court and the number of linguists called to act as expert witnesses in court trials has increased rapidly in the past fifteen years. An Introduction to Forensic Linguistics: Language in Evidence provides a timely and accessible introduction to this rapidly expanding subject. Using knowledge and experience gained in legal settings – Malcolm Coulthard in his work as an expert witness and Alison Johnson in her work as a West Midlands police officer – the two authors combine an array of perspectives into a distinctly unified textbook, focusing throughout on evidence from real and often high profile cases including serial killer Harold Shipman, the Bridgewater Four and the Birmingham Six. Divided into two sections, 'The Language of the Legal Process' and 'Language as Evidence', the book covers the key topics of the field. The first section looks at legal language, the structures of legal genres and the collection and testing of evidence from the initial police interview through to examination and cross-examination in the courtroom. The second section focuses on the role of the forensic linguist, the forensic phonetician and the document examiner, as well as examining in detail the linguistic investigation of authorship and plagiarism. With research tasks, suggested reading and website references provided at the end of each chapter, An Introduction to Forensic Linguistics: Language in Evidence is the essential textbook for courses in forensic linguistics and language of the law.

Eyewitness testimony

Eyewitnesses have always played a fundamental role in the legal process. However, eyewitness evidence is not always as reliable or as accurate as one might hope, given the weight that decision-makers often ascribe to it. In this article, we review some of the many factors that can determine the reliability of witness testimony, including factors that are, and those that are not, within the control of investigative and judicial processes. In doing so, we consider how policies might assist in ensuring that witness testimony can play the most effective and informative role in the legal process as possible.

Negotiating identities, striving for state recognition: Blacks in Córdoba, Argentina 1776–1853

Race in Argentina played a significant role as a highly durable construct by identifying and advancing subjects (1776–1810) and citizens (1811–1853). My dissertation explores the intricacies of power relations by focusing on the ways in which race informed the legal process during the transition from a colonial to national State. It argues that the State’s development in both the colonial and national periods depended upon defining and classifying African descendants. In response, people of African descendent used the State’s assigned definitions and classifications to advance their legal identities. It employs race and culture as operative concepts, and law as a representation of the sometimes, tense relationship between social practices and the State’s concern for social peace. This dissertation examines the dynamic nature of the court. It utilizes the theoretical concepts multicentric legal orders that are analyzed through weak and strong legal pluralisms, and jurisdictional politics, from the late eighteenth to early nineteenth centuries. This dissertation juxtaposes various levels of jurisdiction (canon/state law and colonial/national law) to illuminate how people of color used the legal system to ameliorate their social condition. In each chapter the primary source materials are state generated documents which include criminal, ecclesiastical, civil, and marriage dissent court cases along with notarial and census records. Though it would appear that these documents would provide a superficial understanding of people of color, my analysis provides both a top-down and bottom-up approach that reflects a continuous negotiation for African descendants’ goal for State recognition. These approaches allow for implicit or explicit negotiation of a legal identity that transformed slaves and free African descendants into active agents of their own destinies.

Enotourism – more than a life style

Enotourism is a relatively new form of sustainable tourism. But is more than a lifestyle. The Douro landscape reflects its ancient and deep connection with the culture of wine, creating a picture of Man and Nature working side by side in search of the perfect wine. Lifestyle typically reflects: an individual's attitude, a way of life, values, or world view. Practical implications - the results suggest that there is scope for developing wine tourism products to attract tourists and which could be used to promote the Douro Valley region as a centre for enotourism. The beautifully unique landscape of the Douro was one of the reasons that made it a World Heritage site in 2001. There isn´t in Portugal an autonomous strategy process to define enotourism. Is a legal problem when we try to analyse the process or a data base to find information about enotourism players. So, how do winery operators, particularly those running small or family businesses, cope with the new developments occurring in the world of wines? The present study examines these issues from the perspective of a group of Portuguese winery operators. Our proposal in this research, is to analyse how many wineris or enotecas are hable to develop enotourism with a legal process. The results of the study reflect the level of education of employees, the seasonal nature of tourism, the improvements in its promotion and the need for greater support from local government. A key aspect is respect for the people who call the location home, the culture and customs of the area, and the socio-economic system. Design/methodology/approach - The methodology employed for this study consisted of a combination of surveys, interviews and field observations with the suppliers in the traditional wine‐producing region, Douro Valley, or Porto wine region, in the north of Portugal. The results of this investigation are almost analisys made inside the villages and also us wineries and enotecas. From the 30 winemakers that we visited, only 2 have an enotourism service acording to legislation and have a certificate that allows to pratices. It was very hard but it is an open field to future researchs (TOMÁS López‐Guzmán,et al, 2011). From the 30 wineries we have analysed only 2 were enotourism with a legal basis. Enotourism is on the travel agencies department and most of the wineries don´t have the legal licenses. Despite of most tourism agencies see enoturism as a segment of the industry with tremendous growth potential, stating that in some regions, it's only functioning at 20% of its full potential. Enotourism development guidelines and management practices are applicable to all forms of tourism in all destination types, including mass tourism and the various niche tourism segments.

Reasons withheld and insufficient reasoning as due process violations: two cases before the ECHR

Two very different cases decided by the European Court of Human Rights illustrate how the non-availability of sufficient reasons, for pre-trial judicial decisions in one case, and for a decision in a civil and administrative matter in the other, can lead to due process violations in terms of Articles 5 or 6 of the Convention of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms.

Witness Anonymity at the International Criminal Court: Due Process for Defendants, Witnesses or Both?

The question of how far and in what way to extend protection to witnesses in trials has manifested itself in institutions as diverse as the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), the Committee of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), the ad hoc criminal tribunals (International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the Special Court for Sierra Leone), and most recently the International Criminal Court (ICC). This is not surprising; as David Lusty has pointed out in his seminal analysis of the use of anonymous accusers, the question has arisen in almost every legal deliberative body for the past two thousand years.

False Anglicisms in Legal and Business English as a Lingua Franca (ELF): A Process of Back-borrowing

False Anglicisms are words which technically are not part of the English language, but "seem" English, due to their shape or resemblance to English words. These are usually the result of new creations/coinages in other languages and/or semantic shifts. Due to the use of English as a Lingua Franca, it is becoming quite common to come across these words in English with the "re-imported" shape and meaning they bring from other languages.
