Aspectos de la gramatización antigua de la lengua vasca by Aurélie Arcocha-Scarcia, Joseba Andoni Lakarra

“…In §4 we include the principal conclusions, among which that publications in the vernacular language needed the establishment of linguistic tools, the development of grammatization and a cultural context that permitted the “enlightening” of the language; for that reason, both the LVP and the NT and the RS were born within a continuum, not ex-nihilo or on an island, which makes it essential to reread these works in relation to the printing workshops, scrutinising their ideological surroundings in the context of the extension of new ideas, in an interconnected geopolitical space which experienced major jumps and evolutions in this period. …”

“…Durante este periodo, se ha materializado a través de programas que han tenido por objetivo general “garantizar el ejercicio pleno de derechos de las personas de los sectores LGBT como parte de la producción, gestión social y bienestar colectivo de la ciudad” (Consejo de Bogotá, 2009, p. 2); esto, por medio del desarrollo de cuatro procesos estratégicos: i) el fortalecimiento institucional en los niveles distritales y locales; ii) la corresponsabilidad en el ejercicio de derechos; iii) la comunicación y educación para el cambio cultural; y iv) la producción y aplicación de conocimientos y saberes (Acuerdo 371, 2009).Este documento analiza los factores que llevaron a su adopción en Bogotá, presenta algunos de sus principales logros y ofrece recomendaciones para su fortalecimiento.Para el análisis se recurre a la aplicación del enfoque de las corrientes múltiples como modelo teórico principal; este enfoque se concentra en entender las dinámicas y procesos políticos que, en distintos niveles y ocurriendo de manera independiente y paralela, han logrado confluir en un momento específico (ventana de oportunidad) para posicionar a la política como una alternativa institucional viable a partir de la acción de unos emprendedores de política (Zahariadis, 2010). …”

About One Memorable Date in the History of Spain by G. I. Volkova

“…The ethnonational issue in the multiethnic Spain is far from being solved, because for centuries the process of forming a unified Spanish state was characterized by political union of several genetically related (except Basque) ethnic communities, although with significant socio-cultural and linguistic differences among them. It is not coincidental that regional identity in Spain is still extremely strong, while the interethnic consolidation of the Spanish nation can be characterized as incomplete, which can be seen, particularly, in the intensification in recent decades of radical nationalist and separatist sentiments in Catalonia, the Basque Country and some other autonomies. …”
