  • Islamic Civilization in Spain
    Psychiatria Danubina, 2017; Vol. 29, Suppl. 1, pp 64-72 Conference paper © Medicinska naklada - Zagreb, Croatia ISLAMIC CIVILIZATION IN SPAIN – A MAGNIFICIENT EXAMPLE OF INTERACTION AND UNITY OF RELIGION AND SCIENCE Safvet Halilović Faculty of Islamic Education of the University in Zenica, Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina SUMMARY Islam and its followers had created a civilization that played very important role on the world stage for more than a thousand years. One of the most important specific qualities of the Islamic civilization is that it is a well-balanced civilization that brought together science and faith, struck a balance between spirit and matter and did not separate this world from the Hereafter. This is what distinguishes the Islamic civilization from other civilizations which attach primary importance to the material aspect of life, physical needs and human instincts, and attach greater attention to this world by striving to instantly satisfy desires of the flesh, without finding a proper place for God and the Hereafter in their philosophies and education systems. The Islamic civilization drew humankind closer to God, connected the earth and heavens, subordinated this world to the Hereafter, connected spirit and matter, struck a balance between mind and heart, and created a link between science and faith by elevating the importance of moral development to the level of importance of material progress. It is owing to this that the Islamic civilization gave an immense contribution to the development of global civilization. Another specific characteristic of the Islamic civilization is that it spread the spirit of justice, impartiality and tolerance among people.

  • Evolution and Recent Developments of Spanish Wine Sector, 1950-2008∗
    35th Annual Economic & Business Historical Society Conference (Braga, Portugal, May 27-29, 2010). EVOLUTION AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS OF SPANISH ∗ WINE SECTOR, 1950-2008 MARTÍNEZ-CARRIÓN, José Miguel1 MEDINA-ALBALADEJO, Francisco José2 INTRODUCTION Since the 1980s the traditional European winegrowing regions have been carrying out deep changes in response to the onslaught of winegrowers in the New World. In recent years Spanish regions have been foremost in Europe in terms of change in areas turned over to wine production and distribution (Anderson, Norman and Wittwer, 2004). Some writers have gone so far as to talk about a “revolution in the vineyards and wines of Spain” in response to increasing international competition. The changes have been prolific since Spain’s entry into the European Economic Community in 1986. European agricultural policies supposed a huge readjustment in the geographical distribution of Spain’s vineyards and it had a significant effect on the regions in the country which were involved in the regulation of the wine market. This study analyses the main sequences of changes the Spanish wine industry has undergone: the evolution of consumption through the changes in consumer drinking habits; the leading role of exports in international markets; the spread of different types of marketing and business organization; the distribution in large and small sellers, and the main factors that have been involved in the chain of production and in the modernization of the wineries. 1. CHANGES IN CONSUMER HABITS 1.1 The fall in wine consumption and the arrival of new drinks Wine consumption underwent broad changes on a world level during the second half of the twentieth century.

This system receives information, interprets it, and decides on a response. The nervous system is formed by nervous tissue. Nervous tissue is found in every part of the body. This tissue is made up of one type of cell, neurons. Neurons have very long, thin structures through which they can send and receive messages. Neurons have a complex shape. Neurons are a type of cell with three parts: The body, which contains the nucleus and organelles. Dendrites, which are branched structures. With these structures neurons receive information from the sense organs or from other neurons. The axon, which transmits information to other neurons and sends orders to organs. Axons run beside other axons to form nerves. The nésnervous system is form Morataed by the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The brain has three parts: • The cerebrum controls voluntary movements. • The cerebellum coordinates movements and maintains balance. • The brain stem regulates internal organs. The spinal cord controls reflex movements. The peripheral nervous system consists of nerves. It transmits information from the sense organs to the central CEIPnervous system and from theGi central nervous system to other organs.

  • Hydrometeorological and Hydraulic Factors and Problems Related to Floods in Arid Regions of Spain
    U.S.- Italy Research Workshop on the Hydrometeorology, Impacts, and Management of Extreme Floods Perugia (Italy), November 1995 HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL AND HYDRAULIC FACTORS AND PROBLEMS RELATED TO FLOODS IN ARID REGIONS OF SPAIN Juan B. Marco Universidad Politecnica de Valencia Departamento de Ingenieria Hidraulica y Medio Ambiente 46071 Valencia SPAIN Abstract. Meteorological and hydrological aspects and hydraulic problems related to extreme floods, which occur in arid regions of Spain, are reviewed. Small coastal basins with steep slopes and little vegetation cover are characteristics of these regions in which "flash floods" develop. They are produced by large convective rainfall, resulting in very intense soil erosion and deposition. The flow in alluvial cones is basically two-dimensional, unsteady, and often supercritical. Using mathematical models that incorporate these features are typically prohibited because of the cost associated with topographical precision requirements. Since a large number of dams has been constructed and are operational in Spain, management of reservoirs considering the potential of flood events has become an important problem. 1. GEOGRAPHIC INTRODUCTION Spain is a large (505,000 km2) and high country with an average altitude of 540 m.a.s.l., crossed by important orographic systems running East to West. The Iberian system and some of the eastern mountains complete the division of the Peninsula into two unequal portions. Basically, the Iberian Peninsula can be thought of as a large plateau, encircled by mountains on three sides and gently tilting toward Portugal. Due to this orography, most large Iberian watersheds (the Rivers Duero, Tagus, Guadiana and Guadalquivir) flow to the Atlantic Ocean, while the River Ebro (86,000 km2) forms the only large Mediterranean basin.
