Summary: This thesis aims to link Architecture and the Economy, identifying and deeper into possible links between the forms of architecture and socio-economic models, based on the assumption that if the architecture is an expression of a culture and it is intrinsically linked to a system socioeconomic, there must be certain patterns of interaction between the two. To do so, choose a narrow geographical environment-Catalonia-and certain periods symptomatic from the point of view of its architecture-Romanesque, Gothic and more extensively Modernismo-, trying to analyze estratificadamente changing some parameters Economy, Thought, Science / Technical and Arquitectura- and then relate them to find some patterns that can be extrapolated. Around the emergence of Architecture Romance (s. X), there is an obvious correlation between the various aspects analyzed. On the one hand, emerge from the past the start of pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela, the new product momentum of Christianity versus Islam and that concentrates its force in the bordering points of friction. Among them Catalonia, which becomes a source of cultural identity, around a resource excedentários-due to the transfer of wealth through Arab treaty no-agresión and multiplication performance thanks to new agricultural techniques holding. This expansive force of Christianity is based on Platonismo Augustinian as ideological framework, which takes its thinking Christian reference in the mystical experience and faith revealed. There is also a relationship between the different areas studied around the gestation of Gothic Architecture (s. XIII). The progressive abandonment of the field, due to a depletion of agricultural space, in favor of cities, creates a new social structure and the emergence of civil versus religion. The city, as a place of flow and exchange, it is capable of generating wealth, while postponing its surplus by the emergence of the cash economy. The rise of the bourgeoisie as a new social class, as well as the emergence of a new spirit within the Church (Franciscans and Dominicans) originate a profound ideological shift. The wealth of technical innovation is very intense to the extent that overlaps the experience gained through several centuries of civil works, in the settlement and resettlement of infrastructure in the new territories seized from Arabs. As for the Modernist architecture, it also converge certain patterns comparable to those historic moments discussed above and also, because of its proximity in time we can explain further. Just as the Romanesque and Gothic architecture represents both a milestone and a turning point in the course socioeconomic Catalan Modernism also determines the height of a period of transformation and progress, which represents value system and sedimenta through its forms. The Modernist Architecture does not so much the product of circumstances, but rather the willingness of a society in a supportive environment, be aware of itself. The period of greater vitality of the Modernist Architecture (1890-1910), according to the empirical evidence, we would say that does not represent a peak in the economic order, but rather a time of crisis or misalignment of the model. All this allows us to advance that there is a clear link between social and economic changes and Architecture, this being a factor active during these periods of change. In addition, these processes of transformation in its inertia involving Architecture, involve changes in the socio-economic order, as in the ideological and technical. It would seem also that the consolidation 8 of him 3af nguaje in Architecture is later in time to the top of the economic model it produces. These patterns of relationship could be useful both in the study of certain historical settings, as in the interpretation of one's own contemporary developments.

Summary: This thesis presents the results of the empirical analysis of annual and quarterly series of a set of macroeconomic variables in the United States (USA) in diferntes muestras.El objective of this analysis is to understand the porpiedades statistics of these data, especially the statistical equilibrium in the long term), to achieve a greater understanding of macroeconomics of US, in particular, the phenomenon of inflation. This research integrates rigorous empirical analysis of data with the theory comonómica. The development of models univarientes and multivariate is based on porpiedades statistics of the data, while the economic theory used in the research design and the interpretation of the results obtained. The univariate analysis of the two measures of inflation seen (annual percentage changes of logarithmic deflator Implícitos of Gross Domestic Product (P) and the General Index of Consumer Prices (CP) reveal that both variables remain integrated processes of order uno.Las two measures inflation estaán conintegradas (CI (1.1)), which means they share a common component is not stationary. are many results do cointegration between nominal variables analyzed using univariate analysis methods. methods Using multivariate analysis, are detected two results of cointegration especially relevantes.Por one hand, the Interest Rate Market Interbank One Day r, Type Internal Performance of Treasury Bills to 10 years and the speed of movement of the Monetary Base (logartimo) operating in an account of conintegración trivariante CI (1.1). This means that the speed of movement of the monetary base is the second component is not present in steady interest rates U.S. Moreover, r, the Gross Domestic Product real (logarithm) and the rate of change log of the ratio between the monetary base and the State Liabilities Total operating in a relationship trivariente CI (1.1). This result implies that there is a relationship of statistical balance between long-term negative ry rate inflación.Se presents for the first time the idea of empirical evidence, commonly accepted by economists, that ry inflation were negatively related.

Summary: The thesis focuses on the importance of the local level in active employment policies, especially in the sphere of influence of the municipality of Vigo. Various initiatives are proposed for use at the area of influence of Vigo. For local employment policies can be implemented it must be an understanding of the reality of work in quantitative terms, which developed two models for measuring unemployment based on the theory of small area. The goal is to get unemployment rates from municipal information on the Labor Force Survey province. The first model is baseará in implementing an estimator with synthetic information Census 2001 and the second model is based on the use of auxiliary variables for the number of unemployed, unemployment registered at the offices of Inem, and the number of employed, high social security. There will be continación the validation of models in those areas in which estimates are available direct.
