Understanding the complexities of oral healthcare delivery in correctional settings
Ensuring the oral health of incarcerated individuals is a fundamental aspect of their right to health and a crucial factor in their successful reintegration into society. Formerly incarcerated people are often hard to reach in the community, making the period of confinement a unique opportunity to deliver quality oral healthcare. Given that most incarcerated individuals will eventually return to their communities, providing comprehensive healthca…
Adaptaciones en el modelo de asociaciones empresariales en un entorno inestable y cambiante
La literatura sobre la crisis del neocorporatismo y la crisis financiera de 2007-08 asumían que la pérdida de recursos institucionales y centralizados supondría cambios en sindicatos y asociaciones empresariales. Algunas publicaciones plantean que las asociaciones empresariales han asegurado su participación en la negociación colectiva facilitando cláusulas de exclusión para que las grandes empresas puedan desarrollar sus propias estrategias. Otr…
Acceso de los grupos de interés a la arena gubernamental
Este artículo analiza el acceso de los grupos de interés a la arena gubernamental a partir de una base de datos original compuestapor 2409 reuniones bilaterales bajo los mandatos de Mariano Rajoy y Pedro Sánchez durante los años 2012 y 2021. El análisis se construye a partir de los estudios de la teoría del intercambio y de la dinámica de la agenda y demuestra empíricamente que los grupos empresariales se reúnen con el Gobierno con más intensidad…
Tensiones organizativas y competición de intereses en el mapa español de organizaciones empresariales
Este artículo estudia la evolución del asociacionismo empresarial en España. Empleamos el enfoque desarrollado por Franz Traxler para considerar que el mapa de asociaciones empresariales es el resultado de un acomodo gradual de ciertos mecanismos de compensación para superar tensiones organizativas y retos de representación. Se discuten una serie de indicadores con los que analizar el carácter adaptativo del asociacionismo empresarial. A modo de …
Local interest groups and the perception of power in Spanish cities
Studies on local interest groups have generated a considerable number of theories on urban power that have eventually become the basis of far-reaching approaches on democracy and collective action. Such literature has been especially concerned with discovering who governs the city, paving the way for discussions on elitism, pluralism and urban regimes. Some approaches consider that the business elite dominates local politics, while other theories…
Cómo se define el liderazgo en la defensa europea? Un análisis fsQCA
The paper addresses the issue of national leadership in the politics of European defence, in order to determine the relative value of different factors in the exercise of leadership, and the reasons why some countries are more willing than others to contribute to the development of the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy. The article starts by discussing the main contributions of the (neo)realist and constructivist approaches to European lead…
The 2015 Spanish election
The Spanish legislative election of 2015 speaks of change. This is the end of the traditional two-party system and the beginning of a new political era marked by institutional renewal. The Socialist Party and the Partido Popular have both lost significant parliamentary force, whereas two new parties (Podemos, and Ciudadanos) are now crucial to ensure stable government majorities. This new parliamentary scenario seems to better mirror the politica…
Paths to the recognition of homo-parental adoptive rights in the EU-27
Although the recognition of the adoptive rights of LGBT couples is a socially salient topic, cross-national variation regarding this issue has been largely underexplored in social science research. With the aid of configurational analysis, this article fills this gap and shows the conditions that explain the recognition of the adoptive rights of homosexual couples in the countries of the EU-27. It is argued that two different paths led to this ou…
El asociacionismo de las profesiones jurídicas en España
Los estudios sobre grupos de interés han prestado escasa atención al Poder Judicial. Cuando lo han hecho, ha sido para evaluar cómo los diferentes colectivos recurren a la judicatura para defender sus intereses, pero en raras ocasiones se ha estudiado cómo los propios profesionales del Poder Judicial constituyen grupos de interés para interactuar con otros poderes del Estado. El presente artículo trata de abordar esta problemática para el ámbito …
Regionalism and Employer Groups in Spain, Italy, and the UK
This article presents empirical findings on 27 regional business associations in Spain, Italy, and the UK. We focus on three issues: opinions towards the regions, internal devolution, and business representation. The article draws theoretically upon studies in the fields of industrial sociology, political science, and economic geography. All three disciplines have documented a certain regionalisation of state-wide (or peak national) business asso…
Are business associations involved in regional politics? Evidence from Spain and the United Kingdom
Past studies of business associations conducted in the late 1980s indicated that employers were reluctant to support devolution due to economic fears and political uncertainties. However, profound changes have altered the dominant economic and political paradigms over the course of the last three decades. Regional innovation has become a linchpin for competitive economies, whereas secession has become a skyrocketing political issue in Catalonia a…
Musulmanes y Política
The growing presence of Muslims in Spain sets new demands and strains that examine the ability of Spanish society to accept “other” religions and “other” cultural practices. Based on a concept of interest groups, we can expect the creation of associations representing those interests. This paper analyzes the collective behaviour and configuration of interests of Muslims in the city of Granada. We rely on two case studies to draw our conclusions: …
