War and Economics: Spanish Civil War Finances Revisited
No full textThis paper reviews how the Spanish civil war was financed. We present new evidence to show that the two combatant parties, the Republican government and the Franco administration followed similar financial strategies. In both cases money creation, rather than new taxes or the issue of debt, was the main mechanism used to cover the expenses of the war. We argue, contrary to the established knowledge, that both sides consumed a similar amount of domestic and foreign resources. We also argue that the Spanish Republic did not lose the war because of a lack of means. International factors, such as the Non-Intervention agreement promoted by France and Great Britain, and the military setbacks of the Republican army during the first year of the war, were decisive for Franco’s victory in 1939.Spain, civil war, financial resources

Cultural narratives of Charles V and Spanish imaginaries in West Germany during the Franco dictatorship
No full textThis article aims to contribute to research on the international relations between the Federal Republic of Germany and Spain after World War II, when the Franco dictatorship experienced a process of rehabilitation. In order to gain a better understanding of this phenomenon, we need to complement existing studies on the history of diplomatic relations with approaches to the sphere of cultural imaginaries. This article, intended as a particular case study, analyzes the resignification of Francoism in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) via the heritage and tourist narratives associated with one historical figure shared by both nations: Charles V.Comunidad de MadridDepto. de Historia del ArteFac. de Geografía e HistoriaTRUEpu
Adoption and diffusion of no tillage practices in Southern Spain olive groves
No full textThis paper analyses the process of adoption of no tillage in South-eastern Spain’s olive groves. Olive tree groves in South-eastern Spain’s mountainous areas are subject to a high risk of soil erosion, which is the main environmental problem for this crop, and have to incur in high costs of soil conservation. This results in a greater difficulty to comply with the practices required to benefit from both the single payment and agri-environmental schemes. In many high-steeped areas, farmers have opted for non-tillage practices as an alternative to other conservation practices. Using our own data from a survey carried out in 2006 among 215 olive tree farmers from the Granada Province in Southern Spain regarding the adoption of soil conservation and management practices, we model the diffusion process of no tillage practices using several specifications (logistic, Gompertz and exponential). We also estimate an ordered probit model to analyse which socio-economic and institutional factors determine the adoption of no tillage. Our results show that 90% of farmers in the area of study perform no tillage with either localized (21%) or no localized (69%) application of weedicides. The diffusion process of no tillage has been very intense since the middle nineties, and has been based on the interactions among farmers in the area of study rather than in external factors such as EU policies or extension services. Among other relevant factors that positively affect the adoption of no tillage practices in general, such as farm size and irrigation, the probability of a farmer adopting no tillage with non-localized application of weedicides increases when there is a relative that will continue with the farming activity, what causes the farmer to incorporate long term effects in his farming decisions, when the farmer is only a manager or when he bought the farm rather than inherited it (i.e. on more professionalized farms), and with his educational level. These results confirm some findings from previous studies in other nearby areas.Spanish olive groves, soil erosion, no tillage, Crop Production/Industries, Land Economics/Use,

Albert Franco tells of his family's life on the Isle of Rhodes; why they left; how they came to Seattle. He tells of his father, Marco Franco's, achievements in business and of his father's extensive participation in community affairs, in the Sephardic community and in the community in general. He tells of his own education, his career as a lawyer, his war service in the Army Intelligence, and of his work in the community. He experienced discrimination by his fellow Jews when no Sephardic student could join a Jewish fraternity or sorority. This interview gives illuminating insights concerning the history of an early day Sephardic family and how a child who grew up in that era reacted as shown in his community work as as adult. His account of his father, Marco Franco, as a liaison between the various segments in the community is interesting.

Cardiovascular and muscular physiological effects of exercise in Antarctic expeditionaries: A scoping review
No full textilustraciones, diagramas, tablasLa Antártida es un continente de alto interés en el desarrollo de la exploración espacial, se ha reconocido desde la fisiología humana como un análogo a las situaciones que podrían presentarse en expediciones espaciales. El aislamiento, el confinamiento y ambientes extremos (ICE) son condiciones que requieren de ciertas medidas que disminuyan el impacto en la salud y el bienestar de los expedicionarios. El ejercicio físico busca disminuir dicho impacto en el cuerpo humano; por lo tanto, se realizó una revisión de alcance tipo scoping review, que permitiera analizar los efectos del ejercicio físico en la fisiología cardiovascular y muscular en la Antártida.
Se realizó una investigación secundaria de la literatura, una revisión de alcance tipo scoping review siguiendo el manual PRISMA- ScR, se utilizaron bases de datos especializadas PubMed, Ebsco, Scopus y Google Scholar, se seleccionaron los artículos por título y resumen por medio del aplicativo Rayyan, se filtraron los duplicados y se tuvo en cuenta criterios de inclusión y exclusión para realizar el cribado. A marzo del 2024 se recopilaron 1991 artículos de las bases de datos, como resultado se incluyeron un total de 8 investigaciones que cumplieron con los criterios y fueron utilizadas para la presente revisión a partir de los cuales se realiza una narrativa en tres capítulos.
Se concluyó que las expediciones antárticas generan aumentos en la fuerza muscular y disminuye la DMO en estructuras como la columna vertebral y tronco; por su parte, el sistema cardiovascular sufre un aumento de la actividad simpática y una disminución parasimpática que resalta fatiga, estrés y baja capacidad de recuperación en este ambiente; así mismo, la aptitud aeróbica medida por el VO2max aumenta o disminuye significativamente posterior a una expedición antártica dependiendo de la condición física previa del expedicionario, del estímulo generado y el tipo de misión realizada (Texto tomado de la fuente)Antarctica is a continent of high interest in the development of space exploration and has been recognized from human physiology as an analogue to situations that could arise in space expeditions. Isolation, confinement, and extreme environments (ICE) are conditions that require certain measures to reduce the impact on the health and well-being of the expedition members. Physical exercise seeks to diminish such impact on the human body; therefore, a scoping review was conducted to analyze the effects of physical exercise on cardiovascular and muscular physiology in Antarctica.
A secondary literature review was conducted, and a scoping review was carried out following the PRISMA-ScR manual. Specialized databases including PubMed, Ebsco, Scopus, and Google Scholar were used, and articles were selected by title and abstract using the Rayyan application. Duplicates were filtered, and inclusion and exclusion criteria were considered for screening. As of March 2024, 1991 articles were collected from the databases, and a total of 8 research papers that met the criteria were included and used for the present review, from which a narrative in three chapters was developed.
It was concluded that Antarctic expeditions lead to increases in muscle strength and decrease in BMD in structures such as the vertebral column and trunk. The cardiovascular system experiences an increase in sympathetic activity and a decrease in parasympathetic activity, highlighting fatigue, stress, and low recovery capacity in this environment. Similarly, aerobic fitness measured by VO2max significantly increases or decreases after an Antarctic expedition, depending on the expedition member's previous physical condition, the stimulus generated, and the type of mission performed.MaestríaMagíster en FisiologíaEl presente trabajo se enmarca en un tipo de investigación secundaria de la literatura, una revisión de alcance tipo scoping review siguiendo el manual PRISMA- ScR una extensión para scoping reviewFisiología y desempeño humano en ambientes especiale
Historias de vida y Ciencias Sociales. Entrevista a Franco Ferrarotti
No full textA La autonomía del método biográfico, las historias de vida como praxis interactiva, el carácter participativo de la investigación con fuentes orales, la propuesta de leer una sociedad a través de una biografía, son principios epistemológicos cuyos fundamentos teóricos deben bastante a las aportaciones del sociólogo italiano Franco Ferrarotti. Catedrático en la Universidad de Roma "La Sapienza", el autor se inscribe en la rica tradición de la escuela italiana de historia oral, que desde Gramsci, De Martino y Bosio ha utilizado las autobiografías como un acceso privilegiado a las clases subalternas. Sus libros Storia e storie di vita (1981) y La storia e il quotidiano (1985) constituyen obras fundamentales para los que trabajan con fuentes orales. La presente entrevista recoge los planteamientos del autor sobre la relación entre historias de vida y ciencias sociales.The autonomy of the biographical method, the interactive praxis of life stories, the participative character of the research based on oral sources, the proposal of reading a society through biographies, are all epistemological principles which theoretical foundations are in debt with the contributions of Italian sociologist Franco Ferrarotti. Chair of the Università di Roma "La Sapienza", the author belongs to the rich tradition of Italian school of oral history, that from Gramsci, De Martino and Bosio has used the autobiographies as a privileged acces to the subaltern classes. His books Storia e storie di vita (1981) and La storia e il quotidiano (1985) are basic works for researchers using oral sources. The present interview gathers the author's ideas about the relationship between life stories and social sciences
