"Examines the impact of international migration on the society and culture of Cuba since the colonial period"--Provided by publisher

SummaryThe main aim of this paper is to analyse the singularity of the Spanish position with regard to coverage of the risk of sickness within the context of the different welfare models described in international literature. This analysis enables us to verify that in Spain, as in other countries, there were initially different forms of sickness coverage which coexisted, created by the market, by workers themselves and, gradually, by the state. Within this so-called mixed economy of welfare, the most extensive health coverage for the Spanish population was a result of the self-organization of workers, and this continued until the Civil War (1936–1939), not so much due to its efficacy and viability, as to the slow development of private insurance companies and the inability of the state to implement compulsory sickness insurance. The installation of the Franco dictatorship meant that the introduction of compulsory sickness insurance was further delayed, and when it was eventually passed, it offered only limited coverage, was enacted more for political than for social ends, and was to result in the virtual disappearance of friendly societies.

O texto busca identificar na obra de Friedrich Engels a compreensão sobre a formação humana à luz do curso do desenvolvimento da humanidade, na estreita e singular relação do indivíduo com a natureza. Defendemos a compreensão de formação humana enquanto um processo histórico, social e político vinculado às diversas relações na forma como indivíduos produzem e reproduzem a sua existência. Identifica-se na literatura que o tema da formação humana tem sido explorado por diferentes áreas do conhecimento, contudo, por vezes reduzida como sinônimo de educação e ensino. Apresentamos, ao final do artigo, uma possibilidade de formação humana vinculada às organizações da classe trabalhadora a partir do sindicalismo.
