Les antécédents de la régulation du service d'électricité en Espagne (1890-1945)
(Armand Colin, 2018) Bartolomé Rodríguez, Isabel; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
Cet article traite de l’intervention publique sur les marchés espagnols de l’électricité au cours de ses cinquante premières années d’existence. Depuis 1900, le gouvernement central a pris en charge l’approbation technique et, depuis la Première guerre mondiale, a intensifié son intervention, déclarant en 1924 l’approvisionnement en électricité comme un service public, mais la législation concernant la régulation physique et économique des marchés de l’électricité est restée dispersée. Sur le plan technique, si la normalisation était adéquate, bien qu’elle n’ait pas fait l’objet d’un contrôle, les coupures de courant et les fraudes de la part des entreprises et des utilisateurs étaient tolérées. Dans le domaine strictement réglementaire, l’accélération de l’accès au marché et le gel des tarifs depuis 1920 ont accéléré à la fois la diffusion de l’éclairage et la transition vers l’hydroélectricité, tout en renforçant l’intégration verticale des entreprises.
The Flemish and German Nation of Seville: Collective Strategies and Institutional Development of the Northern European Merchant Community in Seville, Spain (1568-1598)
(Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis, 2022) Jiménez Montes, Germán; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
This article studies how northern European migrants adapted their collective strate-gies to Seville’s institutional framework in the last third of the sixteenth century and how these strategies shaped the emergence of the so-called Flemish and German nation. It analyzes the group’s motivations to refuse the creation of a particularized commercial institution, as well as the alternative institutional mechanisms they de-veloped to organize themselves in southern Spain. The article sheds light on the role of open-access institutions in Spain to facilitate long-distance trade and gives a new insight into the evolution of the commercial connections between the Spanish monarchy and the Dutch Republic during the Eighty Years’ War.
Does Public Expenditure on Education Improve Well-Being? International Evidence
(Wiley, 2025) Rubio Ortiz, Rubén; Patiño Rodríguez, David; Gómez García, Francisco; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
The aim of this article is to quantify the relationship between public expenditure on education and individual subjective well-being, providing empirical evidence of the social return on this investment. We use microdata from the European Social Survey (ESS) merged with macroeconomic variables from official sources. Econometric estimations are carried out using multilevel models. Our results show a positive association between public expenditure on education and individual well-being. However, this effect is not homogeneous across educational levels, as robust evidence of a positive contribution is only found for tertiary education. Furthermore, we explore whether this relationship is contingent on individuals' ideological preferences. Our findings indicate that individuals who espouse a conservative ideology exhibit a weaker effect compared to those with a progressive mindset. Nevertheless, the positive correlation between education expenditure and well-being persists for the latter group. To assess the robustness of our results, we have replicated the calculations using a different survey, specifically the Eurobarometer, and conducted estimations with alternative methodologies, which confirm their consistency.
Social Innovation and Sustainable Development: An analysis of its impact areas and its relationship with the Sustainable Development Goals
(HISIN, 2023-12-30) García-Flores, Víctor; Palma Martos, Luis Antonio; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
In the last decade, social innovation has emerged as a multidisciplinary solution to address various social issues. This study employs a methodology that combines literature review and interviews with experts in social innovation. As a result, 17 main impact areas were identified, categorized into three blocks: economic, global, and social. Most notably, these areas are significantly related to all Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This suggests that social innovation has notable potential as a facilitating tool for achieving the SDGs, highlighting its importance in the pursuit of effective solutions to global challenges in sustainable development.
La implantación del flamenco en el currículo educativo andaluz: entre la tradición y la innovación tecnológica
(Campus Virtuales, 2024-01-31) Chavarría-Ortíz, Carlos; Heredia-Carroza, Jesús; Montero-Lobato, Beatriz; Palma Martos, Luis Antonio; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
El artículo pone de manifiesto el valor del flamenco como herramienta pedagógica. Para ello, la metodología utilizada incluye encuestas a futuros docentes para medir sus percepciones acerca del efecto que tendría el flamenco en las habilidades de valoración del patrimonio: musicales, emocionales, educativas, sociales y de participación cultural del alumnado. Tras la consecución de los datos, mediante estadísticos descriptivos, se observa la alta valoración que los potenciales docentes dan al flamenco como herramienta pedagógica. Esto se contrapone con la falta de conocimiento específico y la escasa participación cultural en el flamenco de estos. finalmente, se muestra una posible solución para la correcta implantación del flamenco en el currículo educativo a través de la creación de auxiliares de flamenco en las aulas y la utilización de recursos tecnológicos.
The impact of anticipated feelings and artist fame on customers’ decisions to attend live flamenco shows
(Elsevier, 2025) Heredia-Carroza, Jesús; Peña Vinces, Jesús del Carmen; Palma Martos, Luis Antonio; Aguado, Luis F.; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Administración de Empresas y Marketing
Most current research on consumer behaviour focuses on customer satisfaction, trust, and loyalty. However, few studies evaluate the factors influencing customers’ decisions to attend live performances, particularly in the context of flamenco. This study aims to fill this gap by examining how anticipated feelings and artist fame impact customers’ decisions to attend live flamenco shows. Using a sample of 584 flamenco consumers and applying Structural Equation Modelling, this research finds that anticipated feelings play a crucial role in driving atten- dance, while the influence of artist fame is more nuanced. The results reveal that while the artist fame does not directly increase attendance, the emotional connection fostered during performances significantly impacts cus- tomers’ intentions to attend future shows. These findings underscore the importance of prioritising the emotional experience in marketing strategies for live flamenco shows. Additionally, the study highlights the potential for flamenco festivals to enhance the cultural identity and appeal of tourist destinations, contributing to increased tourism and economic benefits. This research provides valuable insights for music industry managers and marketers, suggesting that fostering emotional engagement and authenticity can drive attendance and loyalty in the traditional music sector.
Facilitando la Innovación desde Instituciones de Educación Superior Públicas: Determinantes y Desafíos en la Transferencia Tecnológica en México
(Universidad Alberto Hurtado, 2024-07) Flores-Tuxpan, Karina; García-Flores, Víctor; Palma Martos, Luis Antonio; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Universidad de Sevilla. SEJ359: Análisis Económico y Economía Política
La transferencia tecnológica (TT) es fundamental para fomentar la innovación y, por ende, el desarrollo económico y social de los países. En este estudio, se busca identificar los principales determinantes de la TT en México. Se llevaron a cabo entrevistas con 24 directores y/o responsables de Oficinas de Transferencia Tecnológica (OTT) de Instituciones de Educación Superior Públicas (IESP), cuyo contenido se analizó utilizando Atlas ti. Los resultados revelaron 22 determinantes de la TT, que pueden agruparse en cuatro categorías: IESP, gubernamental, sector productivo y grupos de apoyo. Este enfoque integral permite comprender la complejidad de la TT en México e identificar los desafíos a los que se enfrenta. Este estudio cualitativo proporciona valiosa información para los encargados de tomar decisiones en el ámbito de la TT.
La formación histórica de hospitales independientes sevillanos durante el siglo XX y su incorporación a los grandes grupos hospitalarios en el siglo XXI
(2025-01-15) García Cruz, Elena; Pons Pons, Jerònia; Ceballos Hernández, Cristina; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía Financiera y Dirección de Operaciones; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Análisis Económico y Economía Política; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; European Commission (EC). Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER); Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICIN). España
A partir de la primera mitad del siglo xx, muchos médicos especialistas crearon pequeñas clínicas y hospitales en las principales ciudades españolas, entre ellas Sevilla, para atender la demanda de las clases adineradas. El objetivo de este artículo es el estudio del proceso mediante el cual estas pequeñas empresas hospitalarias independientes fueron creciendo hasta ser absorbidas a finales del siglo xx por grandes grupos hospitalarios en manos del capital financiero. Para entender el proceso de forma histórica, el estudio se centra en la oferta de empresas hospitalarias privadas creadas en Sevilla y su integración final en grupos hospitalarios nacionales.
El papel de la competencia financiera del Programa PISA respecto del Objetivo de Desarrollo Sostenible 10: reducción de las desigualdades
(Wanceulen, 2024) Peña Aparicio, Cesar David; Heredia-Carroza, Jesús; Sancha Navarro, Jesús Manuel de; Stoica; Raluca; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía Financiera y Dirección de Operaciones
Este artículo explora la relevancia de la educación financiera como herramienta fundamental para mitigar las desigualdades, en consonancia con el Objetivo de Desarrollo Sostenible n.o 10 de la Agenda 2030 de la ONU. Utiliza principalmente información de la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económico (OCDE) y su Programa para la Evaluación Internacional de Estudiantes (PISA). Los resultados indican que una adecuada competencia financiera desde la juventud facilita la ruptura del ciclo de desigualdad socioeconómica. El estudio analiza cómo factores como el estatus socioeconómico, género, inmigración, riqueza y capital cultural o social influyen en los niveles de educación financiera y, en consecuencia, en el bienestar económico. Se destaca la necesidad de políticas educativas a largo plazo que aborden estas desigualdades, aunque se reconocen las limitaciones de las evaluaciones PISA, circunscritas a variables específicas y sin abordar otros factores o grupos vulnerables.
The Impact of Public Funding to Private R&D: Evidence from Spain
(Universidad de Valladolid, 2024) Fernández-Zubieta, Ana; García Sánchez, Antonio; Molero, José; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
The paper analyses the effects of public subsidies to private R&D in Spain. We carried out an evaluation assessment of the program aid of the Centre for the Development for Industrial Technology (CDTI) from 2015 to 2020. CDTI is the main public agency in Spain that grants public support for firms to carry out R&D projects. We combine information on public grants from CDTI with the Technological Innovation Panel (PITEC) that integrates information from the survey on innovation and R&D activities of companies (Innovation Survey). The sample is an unbalanced panel containing 57,988 observations of which 9,116 (16%) correspond to beneficiary companies. We use a mixed approach of Differences-in-Differences with propensity score matching (DD-PSM) in the common support to control for some of the biases that occur when analysing causal effects. We find that public support has positive effects on firms’ R&D resources (i.e. internal R&D investment and job creation) - input additionality- and cooperation -behavioural additionality. However, the impact of public support on firms’ technological outputs varies importantly across sectors, having a positive effect limited to traditional-oriented sectors.
New challenges in European innovation partnerships: SOEs, POEs and foreign MNEs during crises
(Springer, 2024) García Sánchez, Antonio; Rama, Ruth; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
Cooperation for innovation, not only enhances the innovative and economic performance of companies but also fosters growth and strengthens the resilience of firms in the realm of innovation activities. In this study, we delve into the cooperative activities of innovative Spanish companies with their European counterparts. We employ six logit models using panel data to scrutinize the impact of ownership on innovation cooperation and the determinants of collaboration across different phases of the business cycle, spanning from 2004 to 2016, which we divide into three sub-periods: the pre-crisis (2004–2007), the crisis (2008–2013), and the recovery (2014–2016). Throughout the businesses cycle, state-owned enterprises are the most prone to engage in cooperative innovation with European partners, while unaffiliated domestic firms are the least prone. Foreign subsidiaries clearly outperform unaffiliated domestic firms and slightly outperform domestic business groups in prosperous times, but do not outperform state-owned enterprises even during crises. The drivers of cooperation for innovation with European partners evolve over time, becoming particularly challenging during crises. The factors influencing cooperation with European universities exhibit distinct characteristics. The results contain policy and management implications.
“Instruir en lo religioso y vigilar en lo moral". La Asesoría Eclesiástica de Sindicatos y la búsqueda de una identidad católica para el sindicalismo vertical, 1944-1959
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2023) Bernal García, Francisco; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Universidad de Sevilla. SEJ 107. Historia e Instituciones Económicas
Este artículo analiza las relaciones entre el sindicalismo vertical y la Iglesia católica. Para ello, se centra en la Asesoría Eclesiástica de Sindicatos, un organismo integrado por sacerdotes que formaba parte de la Organización Sindical y cuya principal función consistía en el desarrollo de actividades de apostolado entre los obreros. El trabajo consta de dos partes: la primera reconstruye el proceso de creación de la Asesoría, profundizando en las motivaciones que llevaron a la Organización Sindical a solicitar la colaboración de la Iglesia y en los términos en que esta aceptó prestar dicha colaboración; mientras que la segunda analiza las principales actividades religiosas organizadas por la Asesoría, identificando el modelo de espiritualidad y las concepciones sociales en que se sustentaban las mismas. La principal fuente utilizada es la documentación archivística generada por la propia Asesoría. La metodología parte de la revisión crítica de la fuente como vía para contextualizar la Asesoría dentro de la historia institucional y la historia religiosa del régimen franquista.
El radiomensaje de Pío XII a los trabajadores españoles (11 de marzo de 1951). Sindicalismo vertical y catolicismo social en el régimen franquista
(Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina, 2024) Bernal García, Francisco; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Universidad de Sevilla. SEJ 107. Historia e Instituciones Económicas
El 11 de marzo de 1951 Pío XII dirigió un radiomensaje de carácter social a los trabajadores españoles. El papa respondía así a una petición que, a través de las autoridades políticas españolas, le había realizado la Delegación Nacional de Sindicatos, el organismo que dirigía políticamente el sindicalismo vertical en España. Los dirigentes verticalistas pretendían utilizar el radiomensaje para presentarse como los representantes del catolicismo social en España; sin embargo, esta pretensión causaba controversia entre la jerarquía eclesiástica, dentro de la cual existían voces que negaban que el sindicalismo vertical fuese congruente con la doctrina social de la Iglesia. Estas críticas terminaron afectando al contenido del radiomensaje y a los actos que se celebraron en España con motivo de su emisión.
Patterns of local R&D cooperation of foreign subsidiaries in an intermediate country: innovative and structural factors
(Inderscience, 2017) García Sánchez, Antonio; Molero, José; Rama, Ruth; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
We attempt to contribute for a better understanding of cooperative innovation patterns of foreign subsidiaries (FS) in Spain as a representative intermediate country, going deeply into three main aspects: firstly, a sectoral taxonomy which combines international technological dynamism and revealed technological advantage as a way to understand such patterns. Secondly, we focus our attention on innovative intensive subsidiaries, assuming they are the most important ones for hosting countries. Thirdly, we combine innovation and structural-competitive variables to explain the local cooperation. We found more intense cooperation of FS with local agents in dynamic specialisation sectors, as well as the fact that this is mostly carried out in a complementary mode with inner knowledge capabilities of the companies. Cooperative activities are influenced by economic-structural factors of the Spanish economy, particularly in highly innovative companies. Cooperative strategies of domestic firms might also have an influence to those foreign subsidiaries.
Anatomy of the economic value generated by a cultural event
(Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, 2024) Aguado, Luis F.; Heredia-Carroza, Jesús; Espinosa-Espinosa, Aaron; Garizado-Román, Paola A.; Duque-Sandoval, Henry; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
The article measures the economic effects of decisions made by two agents in the cultural and creative sector. Managers of a cultural event decide to produce it: it mobilizes a flow of artists and creatives who materialize their creations. Individuals decide to visit it: it mobilizes a flow of individuals who produce experiences by attending the event. The result is revealed by the economic dimension of the value generated by a cultural event: new income and jobs for the host territory of the event and unique and authentic cultural experiences for those attending the event. The empirical literature has drawn attention to the need for more precise measures of economic value, in particular that do not overestimate. A combination of instruments is used: interviews (n = 6) with event managers/organizers; a face-to-face survey (n = 173) with representatives of commercial stalls; a face-to-face survey of attendees (n = 1,030); and, an input–output model is adapted to the area of impact. The article provides a methodologically useful framework for identifying and estimating more reliable measures of the material (economic) value created by a cultural event, which can be replicated in a variety of events around the world.
How to enhance the entrepreneurial intentions of the young population in rural areas: An approach from personal values and the socioeconomic environment
(Elsevier, 2024) Heredia-Carroza, Jesús; Chavarría-Ortiz, Carlos; López-Estrada, Sebastián; Zacharewicz, Thomas; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
This study investigates the determinants of entrepreneurial intentions among university students in the rural region of Comarca Sierra Sur, Andalusia, Spain. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior, the analysis reveals that attitudes toward entrepreneurship and perceived behavioral control are significant predictors of entrepreneurial intentions. Positive attitudes and a strong sense of control are closely associated with entrepreneurial intentions, while subjective norms show no significant effect, suggesting that social expectations may function differently in rural areas. Additionally, personal values such as openness to change and self-enhancement positively influence entrepreneurial intentions, whereas conservatism is negatively associated. This research fills a gap in the literature by extending the Theory of Planned Behavior to a rural context, where prior studies have been limited. The findings highlight the need to tailor entrepreneurship policies to the unique characteristics of rural areas and emphasize the importance of personal values and perceived control in fostering entrepreneurship. These insights are particularly relevant for policymakers aiming to stimulate economic development and entrepreneurship in rural regions.
Do Quasi-Hyperbolic Preferences Explain Academic Procrastination? An Empirical Evaluation
(Instituto de Estudios Fiscales, 2019) Patiño Rodríguez, David; Gómez García, Francisco; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
Traditional neoclassical thought fails to explain questions such as problems of self-control. Behavioural economics have explained these matters on the basis of the intertemporal preferences of individuals and, specifically, the so-called (β, δ) model which emphasises present bias. This opens the way to the analysis of new situations in which people can adopt incorrect indecisions that make it necessary for the government to intervene. The literature which has developed the (β, δ) model and its implications has generated a categorisation of people that is widely used but which lacks a systematic empirical evaluation. It is important to value the need for this public action. In this article, we develop a method which makes it possible to verify the main implications that this model has to explain the procrastination of university students. Using an experimental time discount task with real monetary incentives, we estimate the students’ β and δ parameters and we analyse their correlation with their answers to a series of questions concerning how they plan to study for an exam. The results are ambiguous given that they back some of the model’s conclusions but reject others, including a number of the most basic ones, such as the relation between present biases and some of the categories of people, these being essential to predict their behaviour.
Airbnb, sun-and-beach tourism and residential rental prices. The case of the coast of Andalusia (Spain)
(Taylor and Francis, 2022) Rodríguez-Pérez de Arenaza, Daniel; Hierro Recio, Luis Ángel; Patiño Rodríguez, David; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica
According to studies carried out to date, the arrival of the sharing economy in the field of tourist accommodation is giving rise to an increase in residential rental prices, also called long-term rental, in major tourist cities. In this paper, we analyse the effect on the residential rental price of Airbnb accommodation offered for sun-and-beach tourism on the coast of Andalusia (Spain). We use an econometric specification that includes average disposable income, the number of second homes, the offer of accommodation in exclusively tourist hotels and apartments, the temporary hiring of immigrant workers, and permanent immigration. The main result to emerge from the work is that sun-and-beach Airbnb listings explains 13.69% of the price of residential rental prices in the coastal area of Andalusia.
The Impact of Scheduling Birth Early on Infant Health
(Oxford, 2019-02) Borra Marcos, Cristina; González, Libertad; Sevilla, Almudena; Universidad de Sevilla. Departamento de Economía e Historia Económica; Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO). España
We take advantage of a unique natural experiment to provide new, credible evidence on the health consequences of scheduling birth early for non-medical reasons. In May 2010, the Spanish government announced that a €2,500 universal “baby bonus” would stop being paid to babies born after December 31, 2010. Using administrative data from birth certificates and hospital records, we find that about 2,000 families shifted their date of birth from January 2011 to December 2010 (out of 9,000 weekly births). The affected babies, born about one week early on average, weighed about 200 g less at birth, and suffered a sizeable increase in hospitalization rates in the first two months of life, mostly for respiratory disease.
