Las sociedades occidentales asimilan un prototipo femenino en cuya creación participan diversos factores. La sociedad adquiere dicho prototipo y crea un discurso generalizado acerca del ideal de mujer. El presente artículo plasma la visión y posición de la mujer en el espacio público y como su apariencia juega una pieza clave en su identidad. Para conocer la percepción corporal es preciso analizar la parte instituida, tomando como referencia el Observatorio de la Imagen de las Mujeres. También se analiza la parte instituyente, desde los discursos juveniles, para conocer su aceptación o rechazo hacia estas conductas de belleza creadas.Palabras clave: Ciudadanía, mujer, espacio público, imagen, imaginario.Ethical-Aesthetic Visions of Femininity. Youth and Socio-Legislative Perceptions in the Construction of the Physical Image of Western Women.Abstract: Western societies assimilate a female prototype whose creation involves several factors. The society adopts this prototype and creates a discourse about the widespread ideal woman. This paper aims to capture the vision and position of woman in the public space and how her appearance plays a central role in her identity. In order to get a better understanding of body perception, it is necessary to analyze the instituted part, through the "Observatorio de la Imagende las Mujeres". Likewise, the instituting part is analyzed, in order to know how young people are supporters or detractors of this behaviour of established beauty.Key words: Citizenship, women, public space, image, imaginary.
This paper aims to contribute to knowledge of the factors which inform the grouping of creative workers in particular places. It is based on a case study of Aragón, a region of Spain, and draws on a period of nine months of ethnographic work among a particular group of creative workers. The main hypothesis is that there are visual components in the work environment that are stimulating for workers and there is a number of creative flows in these workspaces. I have selected one office that is occupied by two different groups of creative professionals: web designers and programmers. The research concludes that there is evidence that a shared set of cultural values, ideas about work organization, and a hybrid work-life balance are significant to the location choices of creative workers. The research is relevant as a contribution to knowledge about how creative places work.
The aim of this paper is to analyse the relationships between family configurations and creative occupations. For this purpose, a biographical perspective was taken through the reconstruction of the life histories of sixteen creative professionals in Spain. We have followed two lines of approach, namely Florida's classification of occupations (2002), which distinguishes between a creative class and a super-creative core, and Lahire's conception of family configuration (1995). The main results reveal the importance of practices that are carried out on a daily basis by the family network (both internally and externally): reading and writing, cultural consumption (theatre, music, exhibitions, etc.), types of leisure (travelling) and forms of authority that lead the way to self-control and domestic family order. We have shown with this study the importance of the transmission of family culture in the construction of people who have creative occupations and the relationship that exists between the family educational capital and the educational level attained by the offspring.
Lo rural se ha asociado a una forma de "hábitat" que implicaba la actividad económica agraria, que constituía el centro de la vida familiar y vinculaba a sus componentes. En las últimas décadas, estos "hábitats rurales" se han ido transformando y ha acontecido un aumento del autoempleo femenino, como una alternativa de incorporación al mercado laboral. Los objetivos del artículo son conocer las posibilidades y experiencias laborales de las mujeres de la zona rural del Somontano (Aragón, España), a través de las voces de quince empresarias. Los aspectos más destacados son: la experiencia como herramienta profesional, incertidumbres, conciliación, y las ayudas recibidas en su emprendimiento.
