Global environmental change and sustainable development

The UC3M group of “Global environmental change and sustainable development: social trends and emerging policies” offers its experience on the following fields: • Sustainable Development. • Environmental Education. • Agenda 21. • Sustainable Cities and Sustainable Land Planning. • Environmental Impact Evaluation. • Sustainable Transport and Mobility. • Social Management and Saving Policies (energy, waste, water, noise). Within this framework, the work of this research group aims to: 1) The analysis and diagnosis of how Global Environmental Change and Sustainable Development can affect each specific organization. 2) The proposal of solutions. 3) The management of their implementation. 4) Instruction and training. These objectives are tackled from their basic study to their applied development through reports and consultancy services

Financial expansion in Sweden (2000–2008): A hybrid “debt&export-led” growth model

[EN] In the literature on financialized growth, two models are often presented as complementary but opposing: some countries drive their domestic demand through debt, while others grow on the basis of exports. In this research, we identify Sweden as a country that in the midst of the financial euphoria preceding 2008 combined these two models simultaneously. By identifying this “debt&export-led” growth model, we add richness and taxonomic complexity to the literature on financialized growth models. That said, this research contributes especially to the debate on the Swedish growth model, revealing a “hybrid” model that resulted from the interaction of two sets of factors: i) the presence of a successful exports sector, driven by a commensurate regulatory framework in a context of strong international demand; and ii) the manner in which financialization operated in Sweden, through a historic increase in private debt levels simultaneous with a partial dismantling of the welfare state.S

La periodicidad en el sistema didáctico: una articulación a la luz de la socioepistemología

Este trabajo aporta elementos que robustecen la socioepistemología propuesta sobre lo periódico en la que la predicción es la práctica asociada a la construcción del conocimiento matemático. Además de trabajar en un contexto de funciones periódicas distancia-tiempo, se abordan otros contextos como las sucesiones periódicas de números y de figuras

Lo periódico en la relación de una función y sus derivadas

Presentamos un análisis de la relación f‐f ’ para el caso de las funciones periódicas. Debido al privilegio de argumentos analíticos esta relación resulta poco significativa en el discurso matemático escolar y en ella pueden encontrarse problemáticas tanto de la relación entre una función y sus derivadas, como del aspecto periódico de las funciones. Queremos dar evidencia de que esta relación puede resignificarse en un marco de prácticas sociales apoyándonos en resultados de corte socioepistemológico relacionados tanto con f‐f ’como con lo periódico
