The use of commuting data to define local labour market areas and urban areas in Spain
No full textPaper prepared for the 7th NECTAR Conference ‘A New Millenium. Are Things The Same?
Innovation, sustainability and efficieny in communication and transportation systems’, Umea University, Umea (Sweden). June 13-15, 2003.The definition of local labour market areas and other functional areas has attracted much attention during recent decades. The development of this line of research in Spain has however been restricted by the lack of statistical data on commuting for the whole country. This will change thanks to the Census of Population 2001. Prior to it, data were only available for some regions and cities, and that is the reason why only in these areas research comparable to the European and American experience in the field has been carried out. The first part of this paper explores the concept of local labour market area and surveys the analyses developed in Spain on this issue. The second part of the paper consists of an empirical exercise of definition of local labour market areas in the region of Valencia using data from the 1991 Census of Population. Regionalisations have been produced for the aggregate working population and for a set of sub-groups into which the employed population was classified in the Census according to occupation.The author takes part in the research network Territory and mobility (http://iei.ua.es/commuting), partially funded by the Regional Government of Catalonia (ref. 2002/XT/00101). The paper is partially based in research supported by the Regional Government of Valencia (ref. GV00-081-8)
The myth of minority : cultural change in Valencia in the thirteenth century at the time of the conquests of James I of Aragon
No full textThe history of the Iberian Peninsula is intricate and complex. Like most regions of
Western Europe in the Middle Ages, it suffered invasion, occupation, political change and an almost constant re–alignment of social alliances. Yet the thirteenth century saw one of the most massive shifts in the balance of power recorded in western history. In the space of fifty years, Islamic rule within the peninsula was ended for good, with the last vestiges of Muslim territory erased from the southern peninsula by the fifteenth century. Christian ascendancy heralded the arrival of a mixed policy of tolerance, as questions began to be asked about the nature of living together with other cultures and religions and whether this new rule – this new Christian rule – needed to tolerate the existence of others in its midst.
The most dramatic shift in policy occurred in the middle of the thirteenth century, as the campaigns of the two great northern kingdoms of Leon–Castile and Aragon–Catalonia moved southwards. The most dramatic outcome – due to the size of the Muslim population – was the relatively swift conquest of, in the case of Ferdinand III, the main towns of Andalucia and, in the case of James I, king of Aragon, the region of Valencia by 1245. Yet it is important when examining the campaigns of these great warrior kings not
to be overwhelmed by the idea of the religious ethos for the conquest. Some historians have chosen to interpret the thirteenth–century conquests as the Christian reaction for the centuries of subjugation under Muslim rule. The reasoning behind the conquests was far more complex than that of a mere idealistic crusade. In the case of thirteenth–century Christian expansion, desire for territory, sovereignty, inheritance, taxation and inter-territorial rivalry had just as much of a part to play as a desire to overcome the Muslim ‘infidel.’ It is the conquest of Valencia which will form the major focal point of this paper, examining the historical precedent for conquest, the nature of Muslim rule, the ulterior motives of the Christians, the
position of Muslims and Jews in existing Christian society (as well as under the
conquerors) and the role of James I in both consolidating and changing that culture.
The programme of this thesis is divided into two main parts. In the first part, the paper will explore the impact of historical events up to the birth of James; how these events both shaped him as a king and as a warrior; and how domestic concerns may have provided a greater incentive than religious missionaries spreading Crusading fever amongst Western kingdoms. It will review the impact of those close to the king; on the nature of his conquest; on his ideology; and how his attitude towards his conquered subjects was shaped. External political and geographical pressures impacted both upon the king’s campaigning and, ultimately, how complete the conquest was.
In the second part, the thesis will focus on the communities themselves and the changes that occurred as the conquests progressed further and further southwards. It will
contrast the circumstances and fortunes of those conquered with the lives of minority
cultures who were already subjects in the Christian realms. It will examine the idea of
hierarchy within minority culture and the social mores that had an even more direct
impact upon community life than the military campaigning. Most important of all, it will
question the idea of convivencia and the concept of tolerance and ‘living together.
