La red de contactos se ha convertido en un importante instrumento social generador de oportunidades laborales y empresariales. Pero ¿qué son estas redes? ¿Cómo se componen? Estas preguntas son importantes porque las relaciones socio-laborales representarían un factor clave para el progreso personal en materia laboral y para el crecimiento económico. El término "red de contactos" hace referencia a un conjunto de personas con las que uno establece algún tipo de relación social. La literatura indica que las relaciones que se van construyendo a lo largo de la vida se diferencian entre sí por el tipo de lazos que se establece entre las personas. Estos lazos, de acuerdo con el tiempo de la relación, la intensidad, la confianza, la reciprocidad y la frecuencia, pueden clasificarse como "débiles" o "fuertes". En este ensayo se argumenta que, contrariamente a lo que podríamos pensar, son los lazos débiles los que juegan un rol protagónico; y se resalta el papel positivo de estos lazos sobre muchos aspectos, subrayándose las oportunidades de empleo, la expansión del conocimiento y el proceso de innovación empresarial.

Judicial Independence today is facing, particularly in Europe, new threats emerging from populist political regimens. After a structural analysis of the main constraints to the upholding of an independent judiciary, some indications are listed, in a very brief note, to better affirm, at the level of the judiciary, the values of Democracy and Rule of Law, assuming an "ethics of practical responsibility".

The development of Human Resources Management in Portugal reveals how national features may prevent or postpone the adoption of mainstream management models. Based on an analysis of the magazines Indústria Portuguesa, edited by the Portuguese Industrial Association, and Pessoal, by the Association of Portuguese Human Resources Technicians and Managers, this paper aims to understand how political events in the period between 1959 and 1986 came to shape a very distinctive configuration of management discourses. Contrary to what happened in more developed countries, the political effort to modernize productive structures, from the end of the 1950s, and the onset of the revolutionary process in 1974, in the wake of the fall of the authoritarian regime, determined the pervasiveness of normative concepts. Only in the mid-1980s, faced with a new political scenario and against the backdrop of a new shape of the labor movement, would Portuguese management lay emphasis on rational procedures.

Commencing with an ironic parallel with some concepts of economic sciences, the author calls for an active solidarity of all jurists to safeguard a plural Europe, affected by a severe crisis. Firmly based on the thoughts of the honouree Cunha Rodrigues, the crucial importance of a homogeneous and trustworthy European Judiciary is also emphasized, in order to strengthen advances already provided by European Union Law, especially through the creative and innovative case law from the Court of Justice of the European Union. ; A partir de uma irónica analogia com alguns conceitos das Ciências Económicas, o autor reclama por uma ativa solidariedade dos juristas na salvaguarda de uma Europa plural, imersa hoje numa grave crise. Ancorado no pensamento do homenageado Conselheiro Cunha Rodrigues, enfatiza-se igualmente a importância crucial de um judiciário europeu homogéneo e merecedor da confiança dos cidadãos de forma a consolidar os progressos já proporcionados, no passado recente, pelo direito da União Europeia, em particular por força da jurisprudência criativa e inovadora do Tribunal de Justiça da União Europeia.

This article intends to understand the degree in which expectations about the modern mathematics reform were fulfilled. Focusing on the Portuguese case, we probed four quantitative studies developed by governmental institutions at the time of the reform, usually intended to evaluate its implementation at several grade levels. Re-appreciated in modern times, these studies provided us with insights about the reform. More specifically, following Gimeno's distinction among several curricular levels, the contemporary inspection of those studies allowed us to have an insight of the curriculum presented to teachers, the curriculum modelled by them, and the attained curriculum at the time of the reform. ; Este artículo pretende comprender el grado en que se cumplieron las expectativas sobre la reforma matemática moderna. Centrándonos en el caso portugués, examinamos cuatro estudios cuantitativos desarrollados por instituciones gubernamentales en el momento de la reforma, generalmente destinados a evaluar su implementación en varios niveles de grado. Reconocidos en los tiempos modernos, estos estudios nos proporcionaron ideas sobre la reforma. Más específicamente, siguiendo la distinción de Gimeno entre varios niveles curriculares, la investigación contemporánea de esos estudios nos permitió tener una idea del currículum presentado a los maestros, el currículo modelado por ellos y el currículo alcanzado en el momento de la reforma.
