En el presente trabajo se realiza, en primer lugar, un análisis descriptivo de la siniestralidad laboral en España durante los años 2000 a 2007, considerando su evolución en función de distintasvariables. Para posteriormente y, dada la importante repercusión económica que los accidentes de trabajo y enfermedades profesionales suponen para la sociedad y para las empresas, cuantificar el coste social derivado de la siniestralidad laboral y desarrollar un modelo capaz de explicar las variables que influyen en el mismo y que ayude a la definición de medidas preventivas. Los resultados muestran que a pesar de los esfuerzos legislativos en materia de prevención deriesgos laborales en los últimos años, los costes sociales derivados de los accidentes de trabajo y las enfermedades profesionales alcanzaron en 2007 el 2% del PIB.<br /><br />In the present paper, it is being carried out a descriptive analysis of industrial accidents in Spain during the years 2000 to 2007, considering its evolution in terms of different variables.

The Social

The author analyses Grzegorz Królikiewicz’s Trees (1994) in two ways: as a metaphor of the Polish post-1989 transition, and as an eco-horror presenting the complexity of relations between human and plant world. This binary interpretation attempts to answer the question about the causes of the failure of Trees as a film project. The film itself may also be interpreted as a story about historical conditions that affect the ability to create visual representations of the social costs of political changes, as well as ecocritical issues.

Attitudes And Behavior

The most serious global banking crisis in living memory has given rise to one of the most substantial changes in the regulatory regime of banks. While not all central banks have responsibility for regulation, because they are almost universally responsible for systemic stability, they have an interest in bank regulation. Two core objectives of regulation are discussed: lowering the probability of bank failures and minimizing the social costs of failures that do occur. The underlying culture of banking creates business standards and employee attitudes and behavior. There are limits to what regulation can achieve if the underlying cultures of regulated firms are hazardous. There are limits to what can be achieved through detailed, prescriptive, and complex rules, and when, because of what is termed the endogeneity problem, rules escalation raises issues of proportionality, a case is made for banking culture to become a supervisory issue.
