TL;DR: In this article, a situación de estos estudios en el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (E ESCAPE) in España is analyzed, with the aim of finding semejanzas and diferencias that ofrezcan resultados optimos.
Abstract: El estudio del protocolo y la organizacion de eventos es muy reciente en Espana en el ambito universitario. Tan solo cinco universidades lo ofertan. Sin embargo, se trata de una formacion con amplia tradicion superior en el resto de Europa y del mundo. Este articulo analiza la situacion de estos estudios en el Espacio Europeo de Educacion Superior para abordar despues un analisis de la titulacion con el fin de encontrar semejanzas y diferencias que ofrezcan resultados optimos para llevar a cabo la ultima fase de la investigacion, en la que se pretende aportar la posibilidad de una mejora en la elaboracion de programas, en el contexto universitario, en el ambito de esta area de conocimiento. Se ha llevado a cabo una investigacion de caracter exploratorio y descriptivo, puesto que trata de describir y presentar una disciplina novedosa y poco estudiada hasta el momento. Para ello, se ha utilizado la triangulacion (combinacion de metodologia cualitativa y cuantitativa) siguiendo los razonamientos metodologicos establecidos por R.D. Wimmer y J.R. Dominick (1996: 51).

TL;DR: In this paper, a study of the human group whose skeletal remains have been excavated in the chalcolythic tomb of El Perdido has been carried out, where the presence of a minimum of 78 individuals of both sexes in all categories has been determined.
Abstract: The present investigation has as its main objective the paleodemographic and paleoauxological study of the human group whose skeletal remains have been excavated in the chalcolythic tomb of El Perdido. It is about a collective burial belonging to an "extended familiar group" in a temporal lapse of, approximately, a century. The presence of a minimum of 78 individuals of both sexes in all categories has been determined. It’s demographic structure is altered by the high infant mortality which affects individuals between five and nine years of age. The demographic profile of this group does not fit the models established for populations of the Ancient Demographic Regime (ADR), and it could be associated to a catastrophic profile. The paleoauxologic study shows that it refers to a human group of low height whose individuals had a normal growth.

TL;DR: In the second half of the 18th century the transformation of landscapes became more than just a fashion or rural pastime, emerging as one of the highest art forms and acquiring a name of its own in landscape gardening as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: It is the purpose of this paper to present the picturesque not as an artistic style or a characteristic of certain objects, but as the intellectual means by which the British understood the world, land, landscapes and the city in the period between 1730 and 1830. In the second half of the 18th century the transformation of landscapes became more than just a fashion or rural pastime, emerging as one of the highest art forms and acquiring a name of its own in “landscape gardening”, which spread from Great Britain to Europe and America. Considered an art form in its own right, landscape gardening developed its own aesthetic categories, poetic principles and theoretical premises, which occupied the minds of philosophers, poets and scholars alike for more than 100 years, resulting in a surprising amount of intellectual considerations and publications. Its most representative aesthetic field was the picturesque, the principles of which were expounded by William Gilpin, Richard Payne Knight and Uvedale Price.

TL;DR: In this paper, two Bell Beaker tombs in Toledo's province aid to evaluate the women burials from the Iberian Peninsula and the existence of identifiable behaviour based on sex.
Abstract: Two Bell Beaker tombs in Toledo’s province aid to evaluate the women burials from the Iberian Peninsula and the existence of identifiable behaviour based on sex. Women are part of Bell Beaker burials and they appear in all the different constructions, associations and rituals distinctive of this period of time. Grave goods show heterogeneity while displaying her social relevance and integration within their society. This suggests that the women burials remain in the same social status of Bell Beaker communities, regardless of sex. The fact that one of the case studies is a pregnant woman allows us to rethink the importance of maternity in the 3rd millennium B.C. and the casuality of the pregnancy in women death in the past.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the distintas fases that forman parte en el diseno y el analisis del same, and describe the uso of corpus ad hoc como herramientas de documentacion electronica in un curso de posgrado en TISP.
Abstract: La formacion de profesionales cualificados que sirvan como comunicadores con la poblacion extranjera se presenta como imprescindible en la disciplina conocida como Traduccion e Interpretacion en los Servicios Publicos (TISP), principalmente en aquellos casos en los que los profesionales de TISP provienen de entornos academicos distintos. Esta area de investigacion engloba distintos contextos como el sanitario, la educacion, el plano legal o el administrativo. Las fuentes de documentacion tradicionales (textos paralelos, glosarios y bases de datos lexicas o diccionarios especializados) no son suficientes en el caso de las tareas especificas que pueden darse en TISP. Este articulo tiene como objetivo ilustrar el uso de corpus ad hoc como herramientas de documentacion electronica en un curso de posgrado en TISP. Se describen las distintas fases que forman parte en el diseno y el analisis del mismo.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the impact of access requirements to the audit profession, as well as auditors continuous professional development, on reaching the public interest that the profession is searching for.
Abstract: After passing the amendments to the Spanish Audit Law in 2010 and the promulgation of the subsequent By-law in 2011, access requirements to the audit profession, as well as auditors continuous professional development, incurred many changes. This paper analyses such changes by clarifying not only its causes but the future effects that it may induce in reaching the public interest that the profession is searching for. Some of the most relevant decisions have been the following: mandatory university master courses to learn the theoretical bases of accounting and auditing; detailed schedule of the three-year period of practical training, two of them with a professional auditor; and case studies reflecting near to real life situations, including ethical conflicts, in the final exam. Regarding the continuous professional development, it has been established for the first time that auditors must participate in an average of 40 hours professional development per year. Nevertheless, there are some doubts about the possibility of enforcing this obligation by the auditor’s bodies’ in order to help the public oversight authorities in reaching this goal.

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative analysis of social exclusion is carried out over the Spanish house-holds' population from both national and regional points of view, where a set of qualitative and quantitative indicators related to social exclusion are chosen and then a synthetic composite indicator is built using them.
Abstract: In this paper a quantitative analysis of social exclusion is carried out over the Spanish house-holds’ population. This analysis is developed from both national and regional points of view. In doing so, a set of qualitative and quantitative indicators related to social exclusion is chosen and then a synthetic composite indicator is built using them. This indicator will allow us to accomplish the proposed goal. Data used come from the Social Exclusion Module of the “Encuesta de Condiciones de Vida” (ECV) as the Spanish Survey included in the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) Survey, carried out by EUROSTAT. Last disposable data turns out 2004-2010 as the studied period.

TL;DR: This paper propose a recorrido historico por diversos productos culturales del dictador aleman cuyo proposito es desentranar el retrato psicologico poliedrico that se ha construido en torno a la figura de Hitler.
Abstract: Adolf Hitler suscito desde su entrada en la escena politica alemana una fascinacion perversa, un sentimiento que, con el tiempo, ha dado lugar a numerosas representaciones culturales sobre el Fuhrer . La muestra, rica y variada tanto en el fondo como en la forma, nos permitira trazar tres estadios en lo referente al proceso de construccion historiografica del hitlerismo, iniciado con la caida del Tercer Reich. Estos responden en buena medida al devenir sociopolitico y cultural de la sociedad a escala global desde el final de la guerra y hasta nuestros dias y pueden resumirse en tres: primero, la satanizacion; segundo, la humanizacion; tercero, el retrato caricaturesco. Proponemos un recorrido historico por diversos productos culturales del dictador aleman cuyo proposito es desentranar el retrato psicologico poliedrico que se ha construido en torno a la figura de Hitler.

TL;DR: In this paper, a flexible elemental correction method has been proposed, immediately applied to survey´s microdata and its results analyzed, and the corrected data seems to mitigate some of deficiencies originally detected in data.
Abstract: It is frequent to find an intensive use of Living Conditions Surveys in socioeconomic literature, with the intention of studying income size distributions characteristics and obtaining social indicators, as inequality and poverty indexes for instance. First of all an concerning with this, this paper shows singular divergences between the aggregated information provided by these surveys about households incomes and the provided one by Spanish Regional Accounts. Additionally, magnitudes of divergences have been quantified. Secondly and looking for help to understand how these divergences could influence those indicators, size income distributions characteristics have been analyzed in relation to characteristics of households and recipients. Finally and based on observed, this paper consider the possibility of correcting microdata in order to obtain better indicators that inform more realistically about reality. Consequently, a flexible elemental correction method has been proposed, immediately applied to survey´s microdata and its results analyzed. Analysis show that corrected data seems to mitigate some of deficiencies originally detected in data.
