Maps of continental-scale land cover are utilized by a range of diverse users but whilst a range of products exist that describe present and recent land cover in Europe, there are currently no datasets that describe past variations over long time-scales. User groups with an interest in past land cover include the climate modelling community, socio-ecological historians and earth system scientists. Europe is one of the continents with the longest histories of land conversion from forest to farmland, thus understanding land cover change in this area is globally significant. This study applies the pseudobiomization method (PBM) to 982 pollen records from across Europe, taken from the European Pollen Database (EPD) to produce a first synthesis of pan-European land cover change for the period 9000 BP to present, in contiguous 200 year time intervals. The PBM transforms pollen proportions from each site to one of eight land cover classes (LCCs) that are directly comparable to the CORINE land cover classification. The proportion of LCCs represented in each time window provides a spatially aggregated record of land cover change for temperate and northern Europe, and for a series of case study regions (western France, the western Alps, and the Czech Republic and Slovakia). At the European scale, the impact of Neolithic food producing economies appear to be detectable from 6000 BP through reduction in broad-leaf forests resulting from human land use activities such as forest clearance. Total forest cover at a pan-European scale moved outside the range of previous background variability from 4000 BP onwards. From 2200 BP land cover change intensified, and the broad pattern of land cover for preindustrial Europe was established by 1000 BP. Recognizing the timing of anthropogenic land cover change in Europe will further the understanding of land cover-climate interactions, and the origins of the modern cultural landscape.

This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: A complete representation of the coast of England, together with the interior, divided into counties and military districts : also the coast of France and Holland from the Texel to Brest ... to which is annexed eighteen plans of the ports of the enemy, the principal depôts of the flotilla intended for the invasion of England, by John Luffman, Geogr. It was published by J. Luffman in 1804. Scale [ca. 1:2,500,000]. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the 'British National Grid' coordinate system. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as drainage, cities and other human settlements, administrative and military district boundaries, shoreline features including distances between selected ports, and more. Includes insets of foreign military installations and index to the military districts. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.

Esta investigación está dirigida a la Administración de Fondos de los diferentes tipos de Asociatividad Municipal: Asociación Municipal, Asociación de Municipios, Asociaciones de Municipalidades y Micro-Regiones de la Zona Paracentral. Los tipos de Asociatividad Municipal a los que se hace referencia en esta investigación administran recursos y obligaciones del sector público, por tanto son sujetos de derechos, atribuciones, y deberes propios, los que en conjunto conforman el ente contable gubernamental. Para el control, organización y registro de las diferentes transacciones de estas instituciones únicamente podrá realizarse en el Sistema de Contabilidad Gubernamental de los Entes (SICGE), aplicación informática proporcionada por el Ministerio de Hacienda. Para conocer el funcionamiento del control interno institucional se realizó un estudio a través de entrevista, encuestas y observación de los procesos, con el objeto de realizar un diagnóstico situacional sobre los procedimientos de controles aplicados. El control interno institucional fomenta la seguridad razonable en las cifras, oportunidad y consistencia en la información financiera, fundamental para la toma de decisiones. Con el objeto de ayudar al fortalecimiento institucional de las mancomunadas se incluye una propuesta de procedimientos de control interno financiero contables, con sus herramientas de control ofimatizadas, diseñados para la administración de los fondos de las Asociaciones de Municipios, que por ser entes contables, es preciso que cada mancomunidad cuente con su propio control interno financiero, que servirá para la transparencia de la gestión y la confiabilidad de la información financiera. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This research is about at the Fund Management of different types of Municipal Associativity: Municipal Association, Association of Municipalities, Associations of Municipalities and Micro-Regions Paracentral Zone. Municipal Associative types referred to in this investigation about manage resources and obligations of the public sector, so they are subjects of rights, powers, and duties, which together make up the government accounting entity. For control, organization and registration of the several transactions of these institutions may only take place in the Government Accounting System of the Entities (SICGE) for acronym is spanish, computer application provided by the Ministry of Finance. For the functioning of the institutional internal control study was conducted through interviews, surveys and observation of processes in order to conduct a situational analysis on the procedure applied control. The Constitutional internal control promotes reasonable safety in numbers, timeliness and consistency financial information, critical for taking decision. In order to help the institutional strengthening of the asocitiation municipal is included a proposed of procedures of financial-accounting internal control, with its office automatization tools, which is designed for the administration of found the Association of Municipalities (political division of several cities), who is Gubernamental accounting entity, each association must have its own financial internal control, which will serve for management transparency and reliability of financial information.

This paper explains, somewhat along a Simmelian line, that political theory may produce practical and universal theories like those developed in theoretical physics. The reasoning behind this paper is to show that the Element of Democracy Theory may be true by way of comparing it to Einstein’s Special Relativity – specifically concerning the parameters of symmetry, unification, simplicity, and utility. These parameters are what make a theory in physics as meeting them not only fits with current knowledge, but also produces paths towards testing (application). As the Element of Democracy Theory meets these same parameters, it could settle the debate concerning the definition of democracy. This will be shown firstly by discussing why no one has yet achieved a universal definition of democracy; secondly by explaining the parameters chosen (as in why these and not others confirm or scuttle theories); and thirdly by comparing how Special Relativity and the Element of Democracy match the parameters.

This paper argues, somewhat along a Simmelian line, that political theory may produce practical and universal theories like those developed in theoretical physics. The reasoning behind this paper is to show that the theory of ‘basic democracy’ may be true by way of comparing it to Einstein’s Special Relativity – specifically concerning the parameters of symmetry, unification, simplicity, and utility. These parameters are what make a theory in physics as meeting them not only fits with current knowledge, but also produces paths towards testing (application). As the theory of ‘basic democracy’ may meet these same parameters, it could settle the debate concerning the definition of democracy. This will be argued firstly by discussing what the theory of ‘basic democracy’ is and why it differs from previous work; secondly by explaining the parameters chosen (as in why these and not others confirm or scuttle theories); and thirdly by comparing how Special Relativity and the theory of ‘basic democracy’ may match the parameters.
