There is an erroneous understanding in the country that any arbitration of equity, including in disputes arising from engineering and construction contracts, the arbitral tribunal shall issue the award conscientiously, to known truth and good faith kept. It turns out that the Law of Mediation and Arbitration, raises two specific assumptions and hence the inadequate application of the law. In practice, in various construction equity arbitration disputes, the obligation to appoint professional and technical arbitrators to deal with the complexity of construction contracts is omitted and in addition, a set of regulations and regulations that are mandatory for a tribunal made up of technicians and professionals is omitted.  In this paper he analyzes this problem and contributes to the better understanding of what is foreseen in the law as an obligation of the arbitral tribunal made up of professionals and technicians.

This research article addresses in a transversal manner the 1980 Vienna Convention on the International Sale of Goods, as well as the theories it addresses to recognize the contractual perfection of the same, key and current axis, to understand the transcendence of the application of the same in the legal systems and national legislations, such as in the case of Nicaragua.

Can animals be said to have dignity? Can we speak of rights for non-human species? What impact does this theory have in Uruguay and the world? What legal implications could the recognition of these types of theories have? This research aims to answer these questions, in order to assert the concept of human rights solely attributable to individuals of the human species, but not in contradiction with the need to provide protection to other species. This article studies the legal status of animals, how protection of non-human species is provided in comparative law and Uruguayan law, and what pending challenges and issues that require attention from competent authorities are.

This paper studies the complex link between nutritional status and income by using panel data from 150 countries over the period 1960–2018 and employing a panel VAR approach under system GMM estimates. The causal link between nutrition intake and income may change from one income group to another due to different effects of similar factors. While hikes in food prices, unfair distributions of income and rising international trade flows lower nutrition intake in lower middle-income countries, the same factors lead to higher body weights in upper middle-income and high-income OECD countries. Therefore, Engel Curve and Efficiency Wage Hypotheses fail for a group of countries.

The simultaneous recording of public surplus with current account deficit in a national economy could be related to strong private leverage that usually ends in financial crisis, what would make the public surplus unsustainable. The objective of this work is to check the extent to which this claim is bolstered by empirical support. The results reveal that, in effect, the concurrence of public surpluses and current account deficits is associated with private leverage processes and financial crises. These outcomes question the design of the current fiscal rules since they don’t pay attention to the current account balance.

Work-life balance policies are one of the most influential factors in the equal sharing of care between women and men. However, for far-reaching changes to take place in the gender-based division of work in societies, those policies must be accompanied by a new framework of social values, so that care tasks cease to be associated with families and with women. This study links work-life balance models in European countries with predominant social values in regard to gender equality in care and employment. The sources of information used are previous studies on work-life balance plus data from the OECD, Eurostat and the European Values Study. A high degree of consistency is observed between the work-life balance models in place and the values held concerning gender equality in those countries with the most extreme models, both the most advanced and the most traditional. The main conclusion drawn is that the traditional values that predominate in numerous countries may be holding back policies that could firmly foster co-responsibility on the part of women, men and public administrations on matters of care.
