Inocencio V. Pérez Guillén y la historiografía de la cerámica valenciana

Artículo bio-bibliográfico en el que se da cuenta de las importantes aportaciones del historiador del arte Inocencio Vicente Pérez Guillén (1944-) al estudio de la azulejería valenciana, desde sus primeras investigaciones sobre pavimentos y paneles cerámicos del siglo XVIII aparecidas en la década de los ochenta, hasta las últimas sobre azulejos de serie de los siglos XVIII y XIX. De todas ellas se destaca el amplísimo corpus catalogado, los decisivos hallazgos documentales sobre las fábricas de la ciudad de Valencia (desconocidas hasta entonces) y la identificación de las fuentes iconográficas en estampas y emblemas.

¿Para qué estudiar historia del arte en la universidad? Por unas humanidades visuales

En el contexto de la reforma de las enseñanzas universitarias españolas para su incorporación al EFES, este artículo aborda la misión de ta Historia del arte en la educación superior, discrepando de la exclusivamente especializada y profesional que ha terminado imponiéndose, debido a la progresiva fragmentación de las humanidades en múltiples licenciaturas. Primero, describe su proceso de especialización disciplinar, con el objeto de subrayar el origen de las disfunciones que actualmente sufre, al no lograr una aceptable empleabilidad para sus numerosos egresados ni desempeñar la función cultural propia de las humanidades. A continuación, fundamentándose en la naturaleza humanística de la disciplina, reivindica la que el autor considera su principal misión en la universidad: la cultural y educativa: en el marco de un modelo de educación liberal. Finalmente, aboga por unos estudios de grado que permitan a la Historia del arte conjugar satisfactoriamente su doble función de disciplina científica con aplicaciones profesionales y de disciplina humanística con valor educativo para todos los universitarios, contribuyendo así al desarrollo de unas nuevas humanidades visuales.

Digitalization, innovation and environmental policies aimed at achieving sustainable production

Funding for open access charge: CRUE-Universitat Politecnica de Valencia.Humanity is running out of time to curb climate change, and its effects are becoming ever more intense and harmful to humankind. A change in habits and production methods is required in order to slow the advance of this scourge. This research seeks to provide quantitative information on the nexus between digitalization and sustainable production (SP). The analysis focuses exclusively on the 27 EU member states (2015–2019), all of which are characterized by a proactive stance towards environmental degradation. First, a synthetic index is constructed using cross-efficiency, in order to assess Europe's position in terms of SP. This index is then taken as the dependent variable in an estimation of the effects of the different aspects of digitalization measured in the Digital Economy and Society Index, as well as the environmental and innovation policies adopted in the EU. The generalized method of moments is used to examine the effect of the trend in SP. Results reveal that the level of income per capita does not determine SP and that it is more amatter of society's commitment to implementing practices that foster SP. Furthermore, the evidence found indicates that Europe has not yet been able to break the negative link between GDP and sustainability, despite the positive impact of all facets of digitalization, innovation and environmental policies.CRUE-Universitat Politecnica de Valenci

Health status and retirement decisions for older European couples

In this paper we use data the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) to describe and analyse the dynamics of joint labour force behaviour of older couples for the EU12 countries. We focus on three main issues: the relevance of joint retirement across EU12 countries, the existence of complementarities in leisure and/or assortative matting and the effects of health variables. Concerning the evidence, we first find that a working spouse is more likely to retire the more recently the other spouse has retired; this effect is stronger if the wife is the working spouse. Second, there is evidence of assortative mating and/or complementarities in leisure; the effects of all relevant factors on the retirement decision of one spouse depend strongly on whether the other one is working, unemployed, or retired. Third, besides the standard evidence that poor health increases the retirement probability, we find that the husband's health affects the couple's retirement decisions much more strongly than the wife's health does. Additional asymmetric effects are detected with respect to income related variables.joint retirement decisions ; labour force transitions ; health variables ; asymmetric effects

Health status and retirement decisison for older european couples.

In this paper we use data the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) to describe and analyse the dynamics of joint labour force behaviour of older couples for the EUI2 countries. We focus on three main issues: the relanvance of joint retirement across EUI2 countries, the existence of complementarities in leisure and/or assortative matting and the effects of health variables. Concerning the evidence, we first find that a working spouse is more likely to retire the more recently the other spouse has retired; this effect is stronger if the wife is the working spouse. Second, there is evidence of assortative mating and/or complementarities in leisure; the effects of all relevant factors on the retirement decision of one spouse depend strongly on whether the other one is working, unemployed, or retired. Third, besides the standard evidence that poor health increases the retirement probabiliby, we find that the husband's health affects the couple's retirement decisions much more strongly than the wife's health does. Additional asymmetric effects are detected with respect to income related variables.Joint retirement decisions; Labour force transitions; Health variables; Asymmetric effects;

An Empirical Analysis of the Demand for Physician Services Across the European Union

This paper presents parameter estimates for physician services equations using the European Community Household Panel for 12 countries covering the period 1994-1996. The focus is on two specific points: i) the identification of behavioural similarities and differences in the demand for health across the countries; ii) the variability of the demand for health captured through a joint model for all the countries. We find that there are significant differences across countries, although there are also similarities in the effect of variables such as the health stock, labour situation or family structure. An important fraction of the variability of the demand of health services across countries could be explained from differences in age, income, and the role of General Practitioners (GP) as a gatekeepers in the public health system. We also find some evidence of induced demand effects in both the decision to visit and the number of visits to specialists.count data; demand; physician services; latent class model; two-part model

Analysing cooperatives’ digital maturity using a synthetic indicator

A company’s digitalisation journey spans multiple dimensions and processes. However, studies of digital maturity have focused only on certain parts of the process. This study presents a method capable of fully capturing a company’s level of digital maturity. A DP2 indicator of digital maturity was constructed. This indicator is based on responses to a company survey of digitalisation in different business areas and processes. Companies with the highest degree of digitalisation are the oldest and largest (most employees). Differences between companies and sectors can be explained by the level of digitalisation in terms of digital management intensity, departmental agility and digital orientatio

De Amo a Laura a The Wilderness Downtown. Una propuesta taxonómica para clasificar el audiovisual publicitario en Internet

Antecedentes. El escenario audiovisual ha sufrido, en los últimos años, una mutación sin precedentes gracias, entre otros factores, a la universalización de Internet y al cada vez mejor acceso a la banda ancha. Páginas web basadas en elementos audiovisuales y portales como YouTube, Vimeo o Google Video han revolucionado la forma en la que las piezas audiovisuales se distribuyen, pero también la forma en la se crean y, por supuesto, la forma en la que se consumen. Los vídeos domésticos conviven con los profesionales —de todos los campos— generando un mapa audiovisual muy complejo: es caótico y difícilmente clasificable. Objeto de estudio. La publicidad online no ha sido ajena a este contexto, integrando piezas audiovisuales en sus campañas para Internet, muy distintas desde el punto de vista estratégico, en forma y en contenido de las tradicionales piezas publicitarias para el que hasta ahora era el medio audiovisual publicitario por excelencia: la televisión. Objetivo. El objetivo de esta investigación es confeccionar una taxonomía válida para clasificar el audiovisual publicitario en Internet. Metodología. Partiendo de conceptos tradicionales (creación, producción, distribución, exhibición, resultados) y desarrollándolos atendiendo a las especificidades de los nuevos medios (Lister et al, 2009), se ha creado una taxonomía inicial que después ha sido testada clasificando las piezas audiovisuales de 80 campañas ganadoras en 2011 en la sección Cyber del Festival Internacional Cannes Lions.Background. The audiovisual scene has suffered in recent years, an unprecedented mutation because of the universalization of the Internet and an increasing access to broadband, among other factors. Websites based on visual elements and platforms like YouTube, Vimeo and Google Video have changed the way in which audiovisual productionsare distributed, but also how they are created and, of course, the way you watched. Amateur productions compete with professional ones, in every fields, generating a very complex visual map: its is chaotic and difficult to classify. Object of study. Online advertising has not been immune to this context, integrating audiovisual productions in campaigns for the Internet, which are very different from the strategic point of view, in form and content, to traditional advertising productions for television. Aim. The aimof this research is to produce a valid taxonomy for classifying audiovisual advertising on the Internet. Methodology. Based on traditional concepts (creations, production, distribution, exhibition, performance) and developed in response to the specificities of new media (Lister et al, 2009), we created a preliminary taxonomy that has been tested by classifying audiovisual pieces of 80 winning campaigns in 2011 in the section Cyber of the International Festival Cannes Lions
