Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the developments in the Soviet top-elite dynamics from 1981 to 1991. It claims that a careful examination of particular characteristics of the Soviet nomenklatura as a form of top-elite can give us important hints on how the intra-nomenklatura tensions that had been accumulating since its inception aggravated in the last decade of the USSR and contributed substantially to the Union&rsquo<br>s drive to the end. Hence, the main argument of this thesis is that when the Soviet top-elite lost its confidence on the elite-preserving capacity of Gorbachev, it started searching f

Abstract:
La tesis doctoral estudia la poética y la estética del Estridentismo mexicano y su relación con las vanguardias en Hispanoamérica. Así mismo se estudia la producción gráfica y pictórica de los artistas ligados al movimiento estridentista mexicano y particularmente la de Fermín Revueltas y Ramón Alva de la Canal. Se analizan, en primer lugar, los presupuestos estéticos y poéticos del Estridentismo y las claves de su particular síntesis de las vanguardias europeas, profundizando especialmente en el estudio comparativo del Estridentismo y los movimientos de la vanguardia española, particularmente

Abstract:
Recientemente, el cambio climático ha ganado mayor presencia en la política nacional, debido a la fuerte demanda por implementar medidas concretas sobre las soluciones más adecuadas para enfrentar el fenómeno. Surge la pregunta: ¿Es el Estado capaz de responder a esta demanda? Se han producido cambios en las dinámicas de poder para definir el diseño de las políticas climáticas que involucran múltiples actores estatales y no estales. Entonces, ¿quién decide hoy sobre estas políticas? Esta investigación propone analizar esta situación centrándose en el caso del diseño de las Contribuciones Naci

Currency carry trade is an investment strategy that recently started gaining a lot of interest not only among investors and financial institutions but also academically. One of the underlying theoretical assumptions regarding the mechanisms of the foreign exchange market, the Uncovered Interest Parity has frequently been disproved in practice which has led to the conclusion that carry trade is profitable in practice. The function of a carry trade strategy is that a short position is taken in a low interest rate currency to finance a long position in another currency offering higher yields. Thi
