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.

Nonlinear normal modes in mechanical systems: concept and computation with numerical continuation

The purpose of this Project is, first and foremost, to disclose the topic of nonlinear vibrations and oscillations in mechanical systems and, namely, nonlinear normal modes NNMs to a greater audience of researchers and technicians. To do so, first of all, the dynamical behavior and properties of nonlinear mechanical systems is outlined from the analysis of a pair of exemplary models with the harmonic balanced method. The conclusions drawn are contrasted with the Linear Vibration Theory. Then, it is argued how the nonlinear normal modes could, in spite of their limitations, predict the frequency response of a mechanical system. After discussing those introductory concepts, I present a Matlab package called 'NNMcont' developed by a group of researchers from the University of Liege. This package allows the analysis of nonlinear normal modes of vibration in a range of mechanical systems as extensions of the linear modes. This package relies on numerical methods and a 'continuation algorithm' for the computation of the nonlinear normal modes of a conservative mechanical system. In order to prove its functionality, a two degrees of freedom mechanical system with elastic nonlinearities is analized. This model comprises a mass suspended on a foundation by means of a spring-viscous damper mechanism -analogous to a very simplified model of most suspended structures and machines- that has attached a mass damper as a passive vibration control system. The results of the computation are displayed on frequency energy plots showing the NNMs branches along with modal curves and time-series plots for each normal mode. Finally, a critical analysis of the results obtained is carried out with an eye on devising what they can tell the researcher about the dynamical properties of the system.

Fluid-solid interaction in arteries incorporating the autoregulation concept in boundary conditions

In pre-surgery decisions in hospital emergency cases, fast and reliable results of the solid and fluid mechanics problems are of great interest to clinicians. In the current investigation, an iterative process based on a pressure-type boundary condition is proposed in order to reduce the computational costs of blood flow simulations in arteries, without losing control of the important clinical parameters. The incorporation of cardiovascular autoregulation, together with the well-known impedance boundary condition, forms the basis of the proposed methodology. With autoregulation, the instabilities associated with conventional pressure-type or impedance boundary conditions are avoided without an excessive increase in computational costs. The general behaviour of pulsatile blood flow in arteries, which is important from the clinical point of view, is well reproduced through this new methodology. In addition, the interaction between the blood and the arterial walls occurs via a modified weak coupling, which makes the simulation more stable and computationally efficient. Based on in vitro experiments, the hyperelastic behaviour of the wall is characterised and modelled. The applications and benefits of the proposed pressure-type boundary condition are shown in a model of an idealised aortic arch with and without an ascending aorta dissection, which is a common cardiovascular disorder.

Lipidic cubic phases: A novel concept for the crystallization of membrane proteins

Understanding the mechanisms of action of membrane proteins requires the elucidation of their structures to high resolution. The critical step in accomplishing this by x-ray crystallography is the routine availability of well-ordered three-dimensional crystals. We have devised a novel, rational approach to meet this goal using quasisolid lipidic cubic phases. This membrane system, consisting of lipid, water, and protein in appropriate proportions, forms a structured, transparent, and complex three-dimensional lipidic array, which is pervaded by an intercommunicating aqueous channel system. Such matrices provide nucleation sites (“seeding”) and support growth by lateral diffusion of protein molecules in the membrane (“feeding”). Bacteriorhodopsin crystals were obtained from bicontinuous cubic phases, but not from micellar systems, implying a critical role of the continuity of the diffusion space (the bilayer) on crystal growth. Hexagonal bacteriorhodopsin crystals diffracted to 3.7 Å resolution, with a space group P63, and unit cell dimensions of a = b = 62 Å, c = 108 Å; α = β = 90° and γ = 120°.

Dyslexia: Success, Failure, and Self-Concept

The purpose of this study is to investigate the experience of college-aged students who have been diagnosed with dyslexia. Research has shown that many people with dyslexia experience a variety of social and emotional struggles throughout their education. Using qualitative research techniques, this study provides a description of the experience common among college students with dyslexia. Specifically, the study examines the experience of dyslexic students as it relates to attributions of successes and failures, locus of control, self-concept, and how personal knowledge about the diagnosis impacts their experience.

Parent-Child Interaction and Children's Self-Concept

This study is designed to investigate the relationships between marital communication, the quality of parents' ability to assist their children in joint problem-solving, and children's independent mastery attempts and perceived competence at problem-solving, and behavioral indicators of self-esteem. Couples' skill at regulating their own and their children's negative affect within the marital and parent-child family subsystems is hypothesized to predict the quality of their assistance, or scaffolding behavior, to their children during joint problem-solving. Further, the quality of parental scaffolding behavior is expected to predict children's independent mastery attempts, levels of perceived competence at problemsolving, and behavioral indicators of self-esteem. Families for the study will be those with children between 3 1/2 to six years of age recruited from subjects participating in a longitudinal study of communication in marriage being conducted at the Denver Center for Marital and Family Studies. Families will participate in three interaction tasks designed to tap parental scaffolding behavior during problemsolving with their children. Children will be administered self-report measures to tap their perceived competence at such problem-solving as those in the interaction tasks and parents will complete a questionnaire tapping the behavioral indicators of their child's self-esteem. Family interaction data will be coded with the use of a microanalytic coding system developed by this study, the Parent-Child Interaction Coding System. Marital communication data at three time points, premaritally, during the transition to parenthood , and concurrently, will be obtained from couples' interactions from the longitudinal study. The clinical significance of this study includes implications for training couples how to effectively regulate negative affect and offer their children sensitive assistance during joint problem-solving.

Social risk factors in Spanish youth and their impact on self-concept construction

This paper presents evidence from a psychosocial framework about the relationship among youth, work, and identity construction. The aims of this research were twofold. The first one was to analyze the working conditions of Spanish youth and their impact on individuals' biographies. The second one was to examine the effect of labor-related variables on construction / change of identity elements in Spanish youth. For this purpose, two research techniques were used: the Delphi method (103 experts sample from several entities and organizations closely related to our topic) and deep interviews (15 interviews with youths classified according to their relationship with the work market).

An Introduction to Conservation Easements in the United States: A Simple Concept and a Complicated Mosaic of Law

The idea of a conservation easement – restrictions on the development and use of land designed to protect the land’s conservation or historic values – can be relatively easily understood. More significant and more challenging is the complex body of state and federal laws that shapes the creation, funding, tax treatment, enforcement, modification, and termination of conservation easements. The explosion in the number of conservation easements over the past four decades has made them one of the most popular land protection mechanisms in the United States. The National Conservation Easement Database estimates that the total number of acres encumbered by conservation easements exceeds 40 million.Because conservation easements are both novel and ubiquitous, understanding how they actual work is essential for practicing lawyers, policymakers, land trust professionals, and students of conservation. This article provides a “quick tour” through some of the most important aspects of the developing mosaic of conservation easement law. It gives the reader a sense of the complex inter-jurisdictional dynamics that shape conservation transactions and disputes about conservation easements. Professors of property law, environmental law, tax law, and environmental studies who wish to cover conservation easements in the context of a more general course can use the article to provide their students with a broad but comprehensive overview of the relevant legal and policy issues.

Coordination of aproximations in secondary school students’ understanding of limit concept

The aim of this research is to characterize the coordination of the processes of approximation related to the understanding of the limit of a function. We analyze the answers of 64 post-secondary school students to 7 problems considering the dynamic and metric conception of limit of a function. Results indicate that the metric understanding of the limit in terms of inequality supports that the student is capable of coordinating the approximations in the domain and in the range when lateral approximations coincide. However, the student is not capable of this coordination when lateral approximations do not coincide. This indicates that the metric understanding of the limit begins with the previous construction of the dynamic conception in case of coincidence of the lateral approximations in the range.

Social anxiety and self-concept in adolescence

This study analyzes the relationships between social anxiety and dimensions of self-concept in a sample of 2022 (50.1% males) Spanish adolescents, ranging in age from 12 to 16 year-olds. The social anxiety was assessed by the Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory (SPAI), and self-concept was measured with the Self-Description Questionnaire II (SDQ-II). Logistic regression analyses show that adolescents with social anxiety are more likely to negatively perceive their relationship with opposite sex peers and have lower scores in self-esteem than students without social anxiety. Furthermore, in most logistic models, students with social anxiety also show a higher probability of perceiving their relation with peers of the same sex in a negative way, considering worse student, less attractive and athletic, and more emotional instable than students without social anxiety. The relevance of sex and grade in the relationship between social anxiety and self-concept in adolescence is discussed.

An explanatory model of academic achievement based on aptitudes, goal orientations, self-concept and learning strategies

As a result of studies examining factors involved in the learning process, various structural models have been developed to explain the direct and indirect effects that occur between the variables in these models. The objective was to evaluate a structural model of cognitive and motivational variables predicting academic achievement, including general intelligence, academic self-concept, goal orientations, effort and learning strategies. The sample comprised of 341 Spanish students in the first year of compulsory secondary education. Different tests and questionnaires were used to evaluate each variable, and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was applied to contrast the relationships of the initial model. The model proposed had a satisfactory fit, and all the hypothesised relationships were significant. General intelligence was the variable most able to explain academic achievement. Also important was the direct influence of academic self-concept on achievement, goal orientations and effort, as well as the mediating ability of effort and learning strategies between academic goals and final achievement.
