The double purpose of this article is first to clarify the concept of citizenship as intended in the European Union and, second, to encourage society in our country -particularly the segment of society involved in education- to carry out a serious reflection on it, made in an objective manner and in a constructive focus, far away from stereotypes which support vested interests that could occasionally cause social divisions. ; La intención del presente artículo es clarificar el concepto de "ciudadanía" que se pretende en la Unión Europea, e invitar a una reflexión del conjunto social de nuestro país, y de la comunidad educativa, en particular, desde un enfoque objetivo y constructivo alejado de los estereotipos que propician intereses partidistas, en ocasiones, opuestos a la cohesión social.

The new technologies of the information and the communication offer to the European Union wide possibilities to improve and simplify their own internal administration in order to provide an increased transparency and a better access to its information. At the same time, they allow an improved effectiveness in their service to the European citizens and companies, and also enable a better interaction between the EU institutions and the public organisms of the Member States. As a first step towards the electronic administration in Europe, the European Union adopted in 2002 the initiative eGovernment, framed into the plan of action eEurope 2005: a society of the information for all. The goal of this paper is to analyze the strategic plan designed by the European Commission for this first five-year period. It will be analyzed how the Comission is carrying out a transformation process into a virtual administration, and how electronic access to the government services in the Union contributes to strengthen democracy and transparency in the government of the European Union. ; Las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación ofrecen amplias posibilidades a la Unión Europea para mejorar y simplificar su propia administración interna en aras de una mayor transparencia y acceso a su información. Al tiempo, permiten una mayor eficacia en el servicio a los ciudadanos y a las empresas al propiciar una interacción más explícita entre las instituciones y los organismos públicos. Como primer paso hacia la gestión electrónica de la Administración eurocomunitaria, la Unión Europea adoptó en 2002, dentro del plan de acción eEurope 2005: una sociedad de la información para todos, la iniciativa eGovernment. El objetivo de este artículo es dar a conocer el plan estratégico diseñado por la Comisión para este primer quinquenio. Para ello, se analiza cómo se está llevando a cabo el proceso de transformación de una Administración presencial a una virtual y cómo el acceso electrónico a los servicios administrativos de la Unión Europea contribuye a una mayor democracia y transparencia en la Administración eurocomunitaria.

OBJECTIVES: To characterize the peculiar economic nature of the pharmaceutical market in the EU, to study potential groupings of countries based on several pharmaceutical variables, to analyze some recent regulations designed to create the single market, and to present some thoughts on the decision making process in public health from the perspective of current public health budgets. METHOD: We performed an economic analysis of health and pharmaceutical macrovariables, cluster analysis, review of EU pharmaceutical and industrial regulations and review of pharmaceutical budgeting legislation in the member states. RESULTS: The pharmaceutical market of the EU was characterized and EU countries were classified into two principal groups according to 5 selected variables. EU regulations tend to promote R + D and drug production and thus the EU industrial sector is backed up. National regulations differ in terms of pricing and drugs reimbursement. CONCLUSIONS: The creation of a single market for drugs in the EU should take this regulatory diversity into account and seek equilibrium between economic factors and public health. This single market may be a dangerous strategy if it becomes a general dogma and even more so if deadlines are fixed and short.
