Competition among countries and regions to attract the R&D activities of multinational enterprises

case-study of two European countries: Spain and Ireland.

Evolution of freedom of information related law in Spain: new prospects for a more open government

The evolution of FOI law in Spain over the last 30 years is analysed. The process starts with the Constitution of 1978 and goes on with a series of FOI related laws on the management of public administration services, the automatic processing of personal data, the access to environment information, as well as other technological legislation.

La solución del problema retributivo en las sociedades cotizadas

REA Auditado

La retribución de los administradores en las sociedades cotizadas es también un problema jurídico: el ordenamiento no ha establecido reglas claras en referencia a quién y cómo determinar lo que deben percibir los consejeros y quién está legitimado para conocer y decidir sobre esa retribución.
