La Escuela de Relaciones Laborales (ERL) de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) es una escuela de especialización profesional dedicada a la formación, al impulso y a la promoción de la investigación, la consultoría y la difusión del conocimiento en el ámbito de las relaciones laborales[1]. Debido a su naturaleza multidisciplinar, posee una visión amplia de las relaciones laborales y de las importantes conexiones que existen entre trabajo, empleo, sociedad y, entre otros aspectos, economía. Partiendo de esta premisa, a través de la organización de un conjunto de actividades de naturaleza muy distinta que permiten que su trabajo alcance a personas con edades, niveles de formación y perfiles muy diferentes, contribuye a la crítica, a la reflexión y a la búsqueda de respuesta a los problemas que se plantean en una realidad que muta constantemente, al compás de los cambios tecnológicos y sociales. Todo ello convierte a la ERL en un espacio de intercambio entre la Universidad y la sociedad civil, es decir, entre los investigadores, los expertos, los agentes sociales y, en general, las personas y entidades que intervienen o desean intervenir activamente en el ámbito de las relaciones laborales.

The adaptation of the normative prototype of the employment relationship to the productive and organizational transformations generated by digitalization in the world of work has had its field of experimentation regarding the legal qualification of ‘riders’ working for digital delivery platforms. The article describes the process that has been followed in Spain through judicial decisions, a tripartite social agreement and finally a legal norm that recognizes the employment status of these personnel with the corresponding individual and collective rights and also establishes a right of information for workers' representatives on the algorithms that affect access to their employment and working conditions. Finally, we report on the proposal for a European directive incorporating these same objectives in the draft regulation of work provided on digital platforms.

Phenomena such as death, grief and mortuary behaviors have historically been the subject of various reflections, especially in the context of the pandemic (COVID-19). This article aims to analyze death and grief from the social sciences during the year 2020, the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The article reflects on both phenomena from a Deleuzian ontology, especially in the assembly and rhizome proposal. It is developed through a non-systematic bibliographic research, the main findings were a) alterations and changes in mortuary behavior; b) an experiential assessment of individuals —now immersed in a pandemic—, conducive to experiencing not only the mourning of significant people around them, but also a series of duels related to the social context and the current situation; c) alterations to rituals linked to death and their possible effects, especially in the processes of construction from society; and, d) an interdisciplinary analysis from a poststructuralist reading that provides a greater understanding of the phenomenon and its possible impact during and after the pandemic.

The purpose of this article is to reflect on the historiography that has dealt with the analysis of the local treasuries of the Kingdom of Guatemala during the second half of the eighteenth century and the first two decades of the nineteenth century; that is to say, in the propios, arbitrios and bienes de comunidad. In this article we present an historiographic analysis of the few works focused on this issue. In addition, we propose some methodological premises that, we believe, should be kept in mind when undertaking a study on these institutions. Finally, we share some of our research results in order to spark the interest of our colleagues about this topic.

This article reviews the historiography on military confrontations in Central American between 1820 and 1824.  In the foreground, it looked over those writings that described it in a general way. In a second, the narrative published in each province. Additionally, to study this period should be done in two phases and must include new actors in the development of independence. Consequently, this paper suggests that the military conflicts of independence and the armed forces of Central America are part of a process that must be examined as such.
