LABURPENA: Estatuko Aurrekontu Orokorren Legeak sektore publikoko herriadministrazio eta erakunde guztiei debekatu egiten die ekarpenik egitea enpleguko pentsio-planetan edo aseguru kolektiboko kontratuetan, erretiroagatiko estaldura jasotzen badute. Hain zuzen ere, debeku hori aztertzen da lan honetan. Azterketa Enplegatu Publikoaren Oinarrizko Estatutua eta EK-ko 149.1.13. nahiz 156. artikuluen inguruko doktrina konstituzionala oinarri hartuta egituratzen da, eta debeku haren konstituziokontrakotasuna ondorioztatzen du. Adibidez, Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoaren kasuan, debekuak Euskal Herriko Autonomia Estatutuko 10.4 artikulutik ondorioztatzen den berezko eskumen-esparru esklusiboan dauka eragina. RESUMEN: Este trabajo analiza la prohibición que impone la Ley de Presupuestos Generales del Estado a todas las Administraciones Públicas y entidades integrantes del sector público de realizar aportaciones a planes de pensiones de empleo o contratos de seguro colectivos que incluyan la cobertura de la contingencia de jubilación. El análisis se vertebra a partir del Estatuto Básico del Empleado Público y de la doctrina constitucional en torno a los artículos 149.1.13.ª CE y 156 CE, concluyendo en la inconstitucionalidad de aquella prohibición, que en la Comunidad Autónoma de Euskadi incide en el ámbito competencial propio y exclusivo que deriva del artículo 10.4 del Estatuto de Autonomía del País Vasco. ABSTRACT: This work analyzes the prohibition imposed by the State Budget’s Act to every public administration and entity part of the public sector to contribute to pension plans or collective insurance policies that cover the retirement contingency. This analysis has as essential structure the Basic Statute of the Public Employee and the constitutional doctrine regarding articles 149.1.13 and 156 of the Constitution and it concludes with the unconstitutionality of that prohibition which in the Autonomous Community of Euskadi has an impact on the very own and exclusive powers that derive from article 10.4 of the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country.

Paradigmatic Change

This article is about the state of multiculturalist politics in the Netherlands. It assesses the popular claim that a paradigmatic change has occurred in the Netherlands due to events such as 9/11 and the murders of Pim Fortuyn and Theo van Gogh. The article argues that although changes are significant, both in discourse and in practice, they must be viewed as part of a process of rethinking the relation between newcomers and the state that goes back as far as the end of the 1980s. Long-standing claims about the exemplary form of multiculturalism in the Netherlands were always ambiguous at least, or even hard to sustain. The article criticises the persistent idea that Dutch accommodating integration policies since the end of the 1970s are an extension of the historical tradition of ‘pillarisation’. Only by going beyond this myth can we understand why recent changes are much less of a break with the past, and why multiculturalism was never accepted or practised as fully as has often been suggested in more stereotypical depictions of Dutch integration policy.

Resumen: A través de la Ley de Derecho civil vasco 5/2015 se crea la vecindad civil vasca lo que supone un cambio automático de ley aplicable de todos aquellos que tuvieran vecindad civil en alguno de los territorios de la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco. Su creación reaviva de nuevo el debate sobre la competencia entre las CCAA y el Estado en materia de resolución de conflictos de leyes internos; y al mismo tiempo comporta la potencial multiplicación de los problemas adheridos al conflicto móvil en materia sucesoria. En este trabajo se analizará en primer lugar la adecuación de la nueva vecindad civil a los parámetros constitucionales y, en segundo lugar, los problemas de Derecho intertemporal que origina; todo ello ilustrado con la Resolución de l a Dirección General de Registros el Notariado de 12 de junio de 2017 que proyecta esta nueva realidad sobre la práctica.Palabras clave: Derecho Interregional, conflictos internos, Ley de Derecho Civil vasco, vecindad civil vasca, art. 9.8 CC, conflicto móvil, sucesiones, legitimas y preterición.Abstract: Through the Basque Civil Law Act 5/2015 the Basque civil neighbourhood is created, which implies an automatic change of civil neighbourhood of all those who have a civil neighbourhood in one of the territories of the autonomous Community of the Basque Country. Its creation revives again the discussion on the competition between the CCAA and the State to respond to conflicts arising from interaction between various territorial legislative systems or internal conflicts. At the same time this creation involves the potential multiplication of the problems adhering to the mobile conflict in successions. This paper will first analyze the adequacy of the new civil neighbourhood to the constitutional parameters and, secondly, the problems of intertemporal law that originates, illustrated through the Resolution of the Directorate General of Registries The Notarized, of June 12, 2017, which projects this new reality on the practice.Keywords: Interregional law, internal conflicts, Basque.

Although, traditionally, the European Union is associated to the uniformity of the rules imposed, such as common market or unique currency, the challenge for European Union consists in finding the balance between the uniformity of economic rules and diversity involved by the multitude of traditions, cultures, ethnic groups living between its borders, diversity to be enriched more pursuant to the accession of candidate states.Therefore, even if through time it was brought in discussion countless times, lately the problem of secession has become more and more emphatic, both in states from the European Union – Spain (Catalonia, Basque Country), Belgium (Flanders) or Great Britain (Scotland) and in other European states, like the cases of Kosovo and Crimea.

Resumen: A través del estudio sistemático de la frecuencia de los matrimonios transfronterizos entre 1780 y 1920 en el valle de Xareta situado a caballo en el límite hispano-francés, se pretende revisar la interpretación dominante según la cual los fronterizos de la zona vascoparlante fueron dándose la espalda a lo largo del siglo XIX. La permanencia y regularidad de las uniones transfronterizas demuestran que las observaciones acerca de la formación inexorable de una ruptura territorial entre vascos de España y Francia no reflejan un hecho real, sino impresiones erróneas que han sido hasta hoy repetidas acríticamente. En definitiva, la frontera posee una naturaleza muy polisémica, en tanto en cuanto es aprehendida y apropiada de modo muy distinto en función de los individuos y grupos. La línea divisoria de los agentes estatales permanece casi invisible al analizar las dinámicas espaciales vinculadas a la movilidad nupcial.Palabras claves: Frontera, Movilidad nupcial, Zona vascoparlante, Siglos XVIII-XX.Abstract: Through the systematic study of the frequency of cross-border marriages, between 1780 and 1920 in the valley of Xareta straddling the Franco-Spanish border, we aim to revise the dominant interpretation according to which the frontier population of the Basque country turned their back on their neighbours during the 19th century. The permanence and regularity of cross-border nuptial unions show that remarks about the establishment of a permanent territorial divide between Basques in France and Spain do not relate to a real fact and are thus erroneous impressions that have been repeated uncritically. Ultimately, the border is polysemic, as the range of actors and groups apprehended and appropriated it very differently. When analysing the spatial dynamics linked to nuptial mobility, the dividing line of the State is almost invisible.Key words: Boundary, Nuptial Mobility, Basque-speaking área, 18th-20th centuries.

LABURPENA: Landa-errentamenduaren kontratua arautzen du estatuko 49/2003 Legeak, 26/2005 Legearen bidez aldatuak, baina ez da aplikagarria Zuzenbide zibil berezi bat daukaten autonomia-erkidegoetan. Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan orain arte ez da kontratu mota horri buruzko araurik hartu, baina Galizian eta Katalunian legegilea bere eskumenez baliatu eta xedapenak hartu ditu, kontuan hartuz zer nolakoak diren lurraldea, bertako ondasunak, eta errenta-emaileen eta errenta-hartzaileen beharrak. Halaber, aipagarria da beste autonomia-erkidego batzuetako arautegia, non landa-errentamenduarekin harreman estua duten nekazaritza-kontratuak agertzen diren. RESUMEN: El contrato de arrendamiento rustico queda regulado, a nivel estatal, por la Ley 49/2003, modificada mediante la Ley 26/2005, si bien la misma no resulta aplicable en aquellas comunidades autonomas que disponen de un Derecho civil propio escrito en la materia. A diferencia de lo que ocurre en el Pais Vasco, donde, hasta la fecha, no se ha adoptado norma alguna relativa a este tipo contractual, en Galicia y Cataluna el legislador ha ejercido la competencia que ostenta en la materia y ha adoptado disposiciones que tienen muy presentes las caracteristicas de su territorio, de los bienes sitos en el mismo y de las necesidades de sus arrendadores y arrendatarios. Asimismo, resulta destacable la normativa existente en otras comunidades autonomas, en la que se regulan distintos contratos agrarios que guardan una estrecha relacion con el arrendamiento rustico. ABSTRACT: The contract of land tenancy is regulated at the state level by Act 49/2003 amended by Act 26/2005 even though it is not applicable to those autonomous communities with their own written civil law on the subject. Unlike in the Basque Country, where no regulation has been adopted regarding this type of contract so far, in Galicia and Cataluna the legislators have exercised their competence on the subject and have adopted provisions that have the characteristics of their territories, goods placed therein and the needs of tenants and lessors very present. Likewise, it is remarkable the existing normative in other autonomous communities where different agrarian contracts with a close connection with land tenancy are regulated.

En la presente crónica se exponen el contenido de las seis ponencias tratadas en la Jornada de estudio sobre «Reformas en el derecho laboral: nuevos estatutos, nuevas leyes de régimen local» que se celebró el 14 de mayo de 2009 en Vitoria-Gasteiz. A lo largo del texto puede observarse que tras la aparente pluralidad de los temas planteados subyace una idea común: la conveniencia de reducir la normativa básica del Estado a una verdadera ley de mínimos que dé protagonismo a las Comunidades Autónomas en la fijación del marco organizativo de las Entidades Locales. En este sentido se tratan tanto el Estatuto Andaluz como el Estatuto Catalán, y en la Mesa Redonda con la que finalizó el acto se establece la necesidad de un cambio similar en el País Vasco. Kronika honetan, 2009ko maiatzaren 14an Gasteizen egin zen azterketa-jardunaldian («Lan-merkatuko erreformak: estatutu berriak, toki-araubideko lege berriak») jorratutako sei txostenen edukia azaltzen da. Testuan barna ikus daiteke plazaratzen diren gaien itxurazko askotarikotasunaren atzean ideia bakar bat datzala: Estatuaren oinarrizko araudia gutxienekoen benetako lege batera murriztu beharra, toki-araubideen antolaketa-esparrua finkatzerakoan protagonismoa autonomia-erkidegoei emango diena, hain zuzen ere. Hori dela eta, Andaluziako Estatutua zein Kataluniako Estatutua jorratu dira, eta ekitaldia amaitzeko egin zen mahainguruan aipatu zen beharrezkoa dela antzeko aldaketa bat Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan. This chronicle sets out the content of the six papers addressed in the Workshop carried out last May 14, 2009 in Vitoria-Gazteiz with the title of «Amendments in Labour Law: new Statutes of Autonomy, new Acts for Local Entities». Along the text, it can be seen that behind the apparent plurality of topics discussed a common idea was underlying: the convenience of reducing the State basic normative to a true de minimis Act which would allow the Autonomous Communities to play a central role in fixing the organizational frame of Local Entities. In that respect, both the Statute of Andalucia and the Statute of Cataluña are studied, and the pannel that put end to the Workshop did also show the need for a similar change for the Basque Country.

Integration Policies

Immigration policies are of great significance for minority nations, like the Basque Country. Basque nationalism is inclusive and civic; through regional institutions, it has created an informal citizenship with a strong social foundation. This regional citizenship, despite some limitations on regional powers, embraces immigrants by offering social rights to all in order to promote integration in a Basque nation in which identities are not clearly defined. From a technical and legal perspective, there is no specific or separate regional citizenship that could be created by regional institutions in the Basque Country. From a political perspective, however, the principle of inclusive citizenship incorporated by regional policies has played a significant role in the integration process. This trend is similar to the situation in Scotland although it differs slightly from the cases of Catalonia and Quebec, nations in which language is a strong marker of identity.

Lost Opportunity

The Spanish Constitution of 1978 provid- ed an opportunity for minority nationalities within Spain to achieve a degree of political au- tonomy not shared by others within the state. During the constituent process, the non-Span- ish speaking national communities of Catalonia and the Basque Country were the only political entities demanding political autonomy to ac- commodate their national identities in the new Constitution. Today, after thirty years of demo- cratic and constitutional development, we can see that the possibilities offered by the Spanish Constitution to recognize and accommodate the multinational character of the Spanish state have been lost. This article examines causes of this failure to take advantage of the possibilities provided by the Spanish Constitution to pro- vide for asymmetrical political autonomy for minority nationalities.

LABURPENA: Azterlan honetan, Arabako itunen erregimena aztertzen da 1942tik 1976ra bitartean, hau da, 1925-26ko Ekonomia Itunaren lehen aldaketa onartu zenetik probintzia horrekin bakarka sinatu zen azken itunera artekoa, Bizkaiari eta Gipuzkoari 1937an kendu baitzieten sistema hori. Xedapen arautzaileak eta itunetan finkatutako kupoak aztertzea lagungarri da argitzeko Arabak zer nolako gaitasun instituzionala izan zuen lurraldea bultzatzeko, horren mutazio ekonomiko sakoneko aldi batean. Halaber, araudi hori Estatuan gertatutako aldaketa fiskal nagusien koordenadan kokatzen da, zeintzuk egin baitziren EAE eratu bezperatan (1979) oso zalantzan jarri zen sistema bat distantziakidetasunez baloratzeko. RESUMEN : En este trabajo se aborda el estudio del regimen de conciertos en Alava entre 1942 y 1976, esto es, cuando se apruebe la primera modificacion del Concierto Economico vigente (de 1925-26) y se firme el ultimo Concierto en solitario con esta provincia, toda vez que Vizcaya y Guipuzcoa habian sido privadas del sistema en 1937. El analisis de las disposiciones reguladoras y de los cupos senalados en los Conciertos arroja luz sobre el potencial institucional de Alava en el impulso de este territorio en un periodo de profunda mutacion economica. Asimismo, esta normativa se situa en la coordenada de los principales cambios fiscales acaecidos en el Estado a fin de valorar de manera equidistante un sistema muy cuestionado, especialmente en visperas de constituirse la CAPV (1979). ABSTRACT: In this work we study the concerts regime in Alava between 1942 and 1976, i.e. when the first amendment to the economic concert in force (1925-26) was passed and the last concert solely for this province was signed, as Vizcaya and Guipuzcoa had been deprived of it back in 1937. The analysis of the regulating provisions and of the quotas established in the Concerts shed light to the institutional potential of Alava for the thrust by this territory in a period of deep economic mutation. Likewise, this regulation is to be placed within the coordinate of the main tax changes in the State for the purpose of assess in an evenly manner a highly controversial system, specially on the eve of the constitution of the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country (1979).
