Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to analyze glass evidence from a case in which a person broke a window in each of 15 vehicles in a parking lot in order to gain entry into the vehicles. The results of the analysis by traditional methods, which measure the properties of color, thickness, density, and refractive index, are also reported. A total of 15 known samples representing the windows on the cars and 42 questioned glass fragments recovered from the suspect and the police vehicle where the suspect was sitting were submitted for analysis. Density comparisons separated one of the known samples into three samples, increasing the number of known samples from 15 to 17. The concentrations of 16 elements were measured for all but three of the samples using an external calibration ICP-MS method with internal standardization. Color assessment (non-instrumental) separated the 17 known samples into two groups, and refractive index measurements resulted in six groups when the Emmons double variation method was used and ten groups when the Glass Refractive Index Measurement 2 (GRIM2) system was used. Elemental analysis, by itself, differentiated all of the known samples from each other and associated four of the known sample fragments with several of the questioned sample fragments. The informing power of RI, density, and elemental analysis comparisons is evaluated and a summary of the case results is reported. 相似文献

The contribution of regional parties to the development of thestate of the autonomies in democratic Spain is the focus ofthis article. One of the most important features of the transformedstate is non-statewide parties (NSWPs) that have emerged asa result of diversity and expressions of regionalism. The levelof electoral strength and institutional presence, attitudinalbases of their electoral support, and perceptions of the territorialspace and representation of NSWPs are analyzed. 相似文献

Previous studies of the electoral consequences of corruption in Spanish local elections (Jiménez Revista de Investigaciones Políticas y Sociológicas, 6(2):43–76, 2007; Fernández-Vázquez and Rivero 2011, Consecuencias electorales de la corrupción, 2003–2007. Estudios de Progreso, Fundación Alternativas; Costas et al. European Journal of Political Economy: 28(4):469-484, 2012) have found that voters do not necessarily punish corrupt mayors. As has been pointed out in the comparative literature, the average loss of electoral support by corrupt incumbents is small and does not prevent their reelection most of the times (Jiménez and Caínzos 2006, How far and why do corruption scandals cost votes? In Garrard, J. and Newell, J. (eds.) Scandals in past and contemporary politics. Manchester: Manchester University Press). What remains unsolved, however, is the remarkable variability in this pattern. This article explores some of the micro-level variables that may mediate the effect of corruption scandal on the votes. We focus on three factors: ideological closeness to the incumbent party, political sophistication, and employment status. Our results provide only partial support for our hypotheses, suggesting that the effects of corruption are much more complex than what may seem at first sight. 相似文献

Democracy in Spain: Legitimacy, discontent, and disaffection 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
José Ramón Montero Richard Gunther Mariano Torcal 《Studies in Comparative International Development (SCID)》1997,32(3):124-160
This article examines changes in perceptions of democracy in Spain over the last two decades. A variety of empirical indicators
gleaned from numerous surveys are used to distinguish between democratic legitimacy and political discontent, as well as between
this (which includes the well-known indicator of dissatisfaction with the way democracy works) and political disaffection.
The article traces the different ways in which these attitudes have evolved in Spain over the last twenty years, and demonstrates
that they belong to different dimensions. It also includes the results of two tests showing that these two sets of attitudes
are conceptually and empirically distinct: a factor analysis confirms the distinct clustering of the indicators at the, individual
level, whilst cohort analysis identifies different patterns of continuity and change across generations.

Scholars of “decentralization” have recently revealed the importance of subnational industrial policy in responding to the
challenges of globalization. But these treatments tend to make endemic assumptions about either the universal efficiency or
inefficiency of decentralization. This article argues that subnational industrial policy performance is politically contingent
and develops national patterns that are more composite than endemic. Political contingency is analyzed in terms of subnational
incumbents' incentives to delegate authority and resources to industrial policy agencies and the degree of symmetry in authority
and information flows across these agencies. A cross-regional/cross-national comparison of several subnational units in Spain
and Brazil demonstrates that subnational industrial policy is implemented and maintained where incumbents delegate and policy-making
agencies are symmetrically integrated.

We estimate the effects of part-time work on job and life satisfaction using new data for Chile. While part-time work is being promoted to increase female labour participation in many countries, there are concerns about its quality and the overall effect on well-being of such policies. We estimate models for job and life satisfaction addressing for endogeneity and selectivity bias. We found that part-time work has a negative effect on job satisfaction and well-being for men; however, when looking at just women, the negative effect is reversed. This should be considered when designing public policies oriented at increasing female labour participation through part-time work. 相似文献

Julio Montero 《Human Rights Review》2017,18(1):67-85
According to the orthodox or humanist conception of human rights, individuals have a moral duty to promote the universal realization of human rights. However, advocates of this account express the implications of this duty in extremely vague terms. What does it mean when we say that we must promote human rights satisfaction? Does it mean that we must devote a considerable amount of our time and resources to this task? Does it mean, instead, that we must make occasional donations to charities working to advance human rights realization? In this essay, I argue that this duty can only be constructed as imperfect. This means that it confers agent-relative discretion on us to decide when, how, and to what extent to advance the human rights of others. It also means that it is neither correlative with rights nor enforceable. As I will explain, the main reason for this is that any attempt to construct it as a perfect duty would infringe the dignity of the potential duty bearers and thereby undermine the very values that human rights practice aspires to serve. Finally, I will conclude by providing some guidelines for those who wish to comply with their imperfect duties to improve the situation of those whose human rights are in peril. 相似文献
