Abstract

This study examines Latino national political coalitions in the United States with a focus on Chicanos, Puerto Ricans, and Cubans. It argues that Latino national political coalitions are an avenue of political empowerment for the Latino Community, but face social, economic, and political challenges in the Latino community.

Abstract

Recent debates about the Anthropocene have prompted a re-negotiation of the relationship between human subjectivity and nonhuman matter within a wide range of disciplines. This collection builds on the assumption that our understanding of the nonhuman world is bound up with the experience of space: thinking about and with nonhuman spaces destabilizes human-scale assumptions. Literary form affords this kind of nonanthropocentric experience; one role of the critic in the Anthropocene is to foreground the function of space and description in challenging the conventional link between narrative and human (inter)subjectivity. Bringing together New Formalism, ecocriticism, and narrative theory, the included essays demonstrate that literature can transgress the strong and long-established boundary of the human frame that literary and narrative scholarship clings to. The focus is firmly on the contemporary but with strategic samplings in earlier cultural texts (the American transcendentalists, modernist fiction) that anticipate present-day anxieties about the nonhuman, while at the same time offering important conceptual tools for working through them.

Abstract

Aquest informe té la finalitat d'analitzar el paper de l'esport com a mitjà per a millorar les condicions de vida de les dones i per a desenvolupar la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. Repassa les principals tendències en l'esport de les dones, analitza les dades estadístiques que mesuren l'esport femení, presenta i actualitza alguns dels principals debats que han vertebrat aquest camp d'estudi, recopila nombroses experiències que representen bones pràctiques i fonts d'inspiració per a avançar en la participació esportiva de les dones, i ofereix una panoràmica del paper de les institucions internacionals i nacionals darrere de la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. L'informe pretén servir a les administracions públiques, al món associatiu i al personal tècnic esportiu, preferentment a la Comunitat Valenciana, per a aprofundir en aquesta matèria, conéixer l'estat de la qüestió i inspirar iniciatives al voltant de la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. Encara que el focus està posat en l'esport i en les dones valencianes, l'abast i les recomanacions d'aquest informe poden superar el marc de la societat valenciana

Abstract

We exploit plausibly exogenous geographical variation in the reduction in domestic demand caused by the Great Recession in Spain to document the existence of a robust, within-firm negative causal relationship between demand-driven changes in domestic sales and export flows. Spanish manufacturing firms whose domestic sales were reduced by more during the crisis observed a larger increase in their export flows, even after controlling for firms' supply determinants (such as labor costs). This negative relationship between demand-driven changes in domestic sales and changes in export flows illustrates the capacity of export markets to counteract the negative impact of local demand shocks. We rationalize our findings through a standard heterogeneous-firm model of exporting expanded to allow for non-constant marginal costs of production. Using a structurally estimated version of this model, we conclude that the firm-level responses to the slump in domestic demand in Spain could well have accounted for around one-half of the spectacular increase in Spanish goods exports (the so-called 'Spanish export miracle') over the period 2009-13.
