REYNOLDS et al. models that describe the paleogeographic evo- lution of the basins and mountain ranges. The work reports the chronologic develop- ment of middle Miocene sedimentation in the Sistema de Santa Ba´rbara portion (Fig. 1) of the Transition Zone at the southern end of the Subandean zone. Using dating from magnetic polarity stratigraphy aided by a fission-track age and chronologic information from other areas in the Transition Zone, crosscutting re- lations, and changes in the lithic content of the sandstones, we interpret the middle Miocene tectonic development of the region. Nazca plate subduction is characterized by significant along-strike subduction angle changes beneath the western margin of South America (Jordan et al., 1983). Foreland struc- tural provinces of northwest Argentina devel- oped in three tectonic domains characterized by differences in the subduction angle and the orientation of preexisting structural fabrics. An area of inclined subduction where the Naz- ca plate descends at an angle of about 30Њ to the east is between 18Њ and 24ЊS. Farther to the south, between 28Њ and 33ЊS, is an area of subhorizontal (ϳ5Њ) subduction (Barazangi and Isacks, 1976). The Transition Zone is sit- uated between these subduction domains (24Њ–28ЊS). TRANSITION ZONE PROVINCES Our work focuses on the middle Miocene tectonic history of the northern part of the Transition Zone (24Њ–26ЊS). Structural aspects Figure 1.

The paper addresses issues that lie at the heart of the work of the Ash Center—urban governance, democratic deepening, participatory innova- tions, and civic technology. It does this through a study of the fascinating rise of Ahora Madrid, a progressive electoral alliance that—to the surprise of onlookers—managed to gain political control, just a few months after being formed, of the Spanish capital following the 2015 municipal elections. Headed by the unassuming figure of Manuela Carmena, a former judge, Ahora Madrid won voters over with a bold agenda that reimagined the relationship between citizens and city hall.

The empirical strategy is based on building Slovenia a counterfactual scenario to examine the path of Argentina’s long-run development in the absence of breakdowns, assuming it would follow the institutional trends in countries at parallel stages of development. Drawing on Argentina’s large historical bibliography, I have identifed the institutional breakdowns and coded for the period 1850–2012. The synthetic control and diference-in-diferences estimates here suggest that, in the absence of institutional breakdowns, Argentina would largely have avoided the decline and joined the ranks of rich countries with an income level similar to that of New Zealand.

Since its promulga- tion of the 1853 Constitution, Argentina had experienced strong economic growth and institutional modernization, which had propelled it into the ranks of the 10 wealthi- est countries in the world by 1913. In the aftermath of the war, Argentina’s income per capita fell from a level approximating that of Switzerland to its current middle-income country status.

  • Along-Strike Variation in Structural Styles and Hydrocarbon Occurrences, Subandean Fold-And-Thrust Belt and Inner Foreland, Colombia to Argentina
    The Geological Society of America Memoir 212 2015 Along-strike variation in structural styles and hydrocarbon occurrences, Subandean fold-and-thrust belt and inner foreland, Colombia to Argentina Michael F. McGroder Richard O. Lease* David M. Pearson† ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company, Houston, Texas 77252, USA ABSTRACT The approximately N-S–trending Andean retroarc fold-and-thrust belt is the locus of up to 300 km of Cenozoic shortening at the convergent plate boundary where the Nazca plate subducts beneath South America. Inherited pre-Cenozoic differences in the overriding plate are largely responsible for the highly segmented distribution of hydrocarbon resources in the fold-and-thrust belt. We use an ~7500-km-long, orogen- parallel (“strike”) structural cross section drawn near the eastern terminus of the fold belt between the Colombia-Venezuela border and the south end of the Neuquén Basin, Argentina, to illustrate the control these inherited crustal elements have on structural styles and the distribution of petroleum resources. Three pre-Andean tectonic events are chiefl y responsible for segmentation of sub- basins along the trend. First, the Late Ordovician “Ocloyic” tectonic event, recording terrane accretion from the southwest onto the margin of South America (present-day northern Argentina and Chile), resulted in the formation of a NNW-trending crustal welt oriented obliquely to the modern-day Andes. This paleohigh infl uenced the dis- tribution of multiple petroleum system elements in post-Ordovician time. Second, the mid-Carboniferous “Chañic” event was a less profound event that created mod- est structural relief. Basin segmentation and localized structural collapse during this period set the stage for deposition of important Carboniferous and Permian source rocks in the Madre de Dios and Ucayali Basins in Peru.

  • Linguistic Strata in Ancient Cantabria: the Evidence of Toponyms
    HAnt XXXI-2007, 7-20 LINGUISTIC STRATA IN ANCIENT CANTABRIA: THE EVIDENCE OF TOPONYMS LEONARD A. CURCHIN UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO (CANADÁ) RESUMEN: Un análisis detallado de los topónimos de la Cantabria antigua impugna la idea de una substancial presencia preindoeuropea o vasca en esta región. Fuera de un número limitado de nombres romanos, testimonio de un nivel débil de romanización, la clasificación lingüística de los topónimos se divide casi igualmente entre el céltico y una lengua indoeuropea no céltica, de la cual ignoramos su identidad. SUMMARY: A detailed analysis of place-names in ancient Cantabria disproves the idea of a substantial pre-Indo-European or Basque presence in the region. Apart from a relatively small number of Roman names, indicative of a weak degree of romanization, the linguistic affiliation of toponyms is almost equally divided between Celtic and a non-Celtic Indo-European language which remains unidentified. It is an unfortunate fact that, apart from the accounts of Augustus’ campaigns in 26-19 B.C., the ancient sources have left us no narrative history of Cantabria. In particular, there is a paucity of information about the sequence and interaction of the various ethnic and linguistic groups that populated this region, leaving doubt as to whether the dominant language was Iberian, Basque, Celtic, or some earlier Indo-European (henceforth IE) tongue. While nineteenth- century scholars such as M. Assas and A. Fernández Guerra believed that the Cantabrians were Celtic, P. Bosch Gimpera considered them an Iberian enclave within the Celtic block, and J. Caro Baroja identified them as an autochthonous, pre-Celtic people1.

  • Simulated Effects of COVID-19 and Emergency Benefits on Individual and Household Income Distribution in Italy ECINE
    SOS incomes: Simulated effects of COVID-19 and emergency benefits on individual and household income distribution in Italy Giovanni Gallo Michele Raitano ECINEQ 2020 566 1 / 38 ECINEQ 2020 566 2020 December www.ecineq.org SOS incomes: Simulated effects of COVID-19 and emergency benefits on individual and household income distribution in Italy Giovanni Gallo Sapienza University of Rome Michele Raitano Sapienza University of Rome Abstract Using a static microsimulation model based on a link between survey and administrative data, the article investigates the effects of the pandemic on income distribution in Italy. The analysis focuses both on individuals and on households, by simulating changes in labour incomes and in equivalised incomes, respectively. For both units of observations, changes before and after the emergency income benefits introduced by the Government to deal with the effects of the COVID-19 emergency are compared. The effects of the pandemic are simulated for the whole 2020 under three different scenarios capturing an increasing length of the pandemic. We find that the pandemic has led to a relatively greater drop in labour incomes for those lying in the poorest quantiles, but they were the same having benefited more from the emergency benefits. As a result, compared with the ‘No-COVID scenario’, income poverty and inequality indexes significantly grow in all scenarios when emergency benefits are not considered, whereas the poverty increase greatly narrows and inequality levels slightly decrease once benefits are considered.
