Several studies on youth and social networks have generally revealed extensive usage of these Internet services, widespread access from almost any location and the special importance that the youth attach to these services in building their social relations. This article presents part of the analyses and results from a research questionnaire on «Scenarios, digital technologies and youth in Andalusia», administered to a population of 1,487 youth between the ages of 13 and 19. The discussion on young Andalusians and social networks revolves around the structure and configuration of their profiles, intended uses and the privacy and security involved. The results reveal a population with nearly unlimited access to social networks and with very little adult monitoring; moreover, those connecting are younger than the legal minimum age defined by the Internet services themselves. The motivations of Andalusian youth for using social networks fall into three areas. The first two, social and psychological/affective motivations, are also commonly found in other studies; the third refers to the need to use social networks in matters concerning everyday life. This paper suggests certain new aspects in its conclusions in order to explain the nature and meaning of the practices of Andalusian youth in social networks. Diversos estudios sobre jóvenes y redes sociales han demostrado, en general, el alto consumo de estos servicios de Internet, generalizándose su uso en casi todo tipo de ubicaciones y valorando su importancia en la construcción de las relaciones sociales entre la juventud. En este artículo se presenta parte de los análisis y resultados del cuestionario de la investigación sobre los «Escenarios, tecnologías digitales y juventud en Andalucía», administrada a una población de 1.487 jóvenes entre los 13 y 19. La discusión sobre jóvenes andaluces y redes sociales gira en torno a la es­tructura y configuración de sus perfiles, a las finalidades de uso, y a la privacidad y seguridad en las mismas. Los re­sultados destacados muestran una población con acceso a las redes sociales sin casi restricciones y con poco seguimiento adulto, y además las edades de acceso son menores de las legalmente definidas por los propios servicios de Internet. Las motivaciones de los jóvenes andaluces para el uso de las redes sociales se pueden agrupar en tres áreas; las dos primeras están presentes en otras investigaciones: motivación social y la psicológico-afectiva; y menos la tercera: la necesidad ligada a la vida cotidiana. Este trabajo aporta en sus conclusiones nuevos aspectos para explicar la naturaleza y los significados de las prácticas de los jóvenes andaluces con las redes sociales.

O artigo analisa as dinâmicas sociais que estão presentes na afirmação de trabalhadores enquanto Microempreendedores Individuais (MEIs). Toma-se como referência empírica a experiência de trabalhadores que formalizaram suas ações econômicas a partir da Lei do Microempreendedorismo Individual, criada em 2008 e sancionada em 2009. A análise enfatiza a importância das redes de sociabilidade para a compreensão não só da apropriação da política pública por parte dos trabalhadores, mas também das repercussões da legislação nas práticas dos agentes econômicos, indicando, ao final, que as relações sociais que os indivíduos estabelecem, seja com amigos, familiares, organizações ou poder público, condicionam as possibilidades de integração desses trabalhadores e de promoção da cidadania através da Lei do Microempreendedorismo Individual. Social Networks and the Experience of Formalizing Individual Microentrepreneurs The article analyzes the social dynamics that are present in the affirmation of workers as Individual Microentrepreneurs. Empirical reference is made to the experience of workers who formalized their economic actions based on the Individual Microenterprise Law, created in 2008 and sanctioned in 2009. The analysis emphasizes the importance of networks of sociability for the understanding not only of the appropriation of public policy in the end, that the social relations that individuals establish, whether with friends, family, organizations or public power, condition the possibilities of integration of these workers and promotion of citizenship through the Individual Microentrepreneurship Law.

En este trabajo se busca analizar los diferentes lazos que utilizan los distintos trabajadores para construir su intermitente inserción laboral en el mercado de trabajo rural. El concepto de red resulta útil para el estudio de relaciones sociales que tienen la particularidad de ser dinámicas, intermitentes y no necesariamente limitadas a un tiempo, una dirección o un espacio. Desde este punto de vista podemos privilegiar la mirada sobre las relaciones sociales más que sobre las características particulares de los individuos y de su posición en la sociedad en su conjunto.Sobre la base de un trabajo de campo realizado en el Valle de Uco (Mendoza, Argentina) observamos que las distintas redes nos ayudan a explicar las relaciones sociales desplegadas en el mundo del trabajo.Palabras claves: Trabajadores temporarios. Relaciones sociales. Redes sociales. Y, si piden por la radio es porque algún defecto tienen. The importance of the social networks in the world of temporary rural workers. Abstract This paper seeks to analyze different links used by temporary rural workers to build their employability. The network concept is useful to study social relations that have the particularity of being dynamic, intermittent and not necessarily limited to one time, address or space. From this point of view we favor the use of a social relations perspective, rather than one based on the particular characteristics of individuals and their position in the society as a whole.Based on fieldwork conducted in the Valle de Uco (Mendoza, Argentina), we find that networks help to explain social relations unfolded in the world of labor.Keywords: Temporary rural workers.

ABSTRACTAlthough supermarkets are replicating the neighborhood store business format, located in the lower socioeconomic levels from Colombia, have not yet attained displacement. As an adverse result to these interests, an increase in sales and participation of this type of retailer in the Colombian market has been observed in recent years. This phenomenon that has caught the attention and has been subject of study of researchers from sociology, anthropology, psychology, economics, management and marketing, have prompted the interest in conducting this research which aims to demonstrate, from the perspective of relationship marketing and social networks, why social relations and relational benefits has been the key aspects of success that make up the competitive advantage of the neighborhood stores studied in the city of Santiago de Cali, Colombia. Given the qualitative characteristics of the variables to assess, the collection and identification of the findings were made by using unstructured observation techniques, in-depth interviews and content analysis. Among the main findings, it was found that the aspects that have favored the permanency of such business in the market are: the spatial proximity, social and affective relationships that arise between merchant and consumers; human social networks, primary and informal, that arise in the interaction that occurs between the shopkeeper with customers, suppliers and other shopkeeper. Social relationships that emerge from this interaction produce long-term social and affective bonds, creating social, psychological, economic and personalization benefits for the parties. Finally, identified findings are expected to be useful for other organizations to formulate strategies of relationship marketing, or to those who are interested in doing future research in this field. Finally, findings identified expected to be useful for other organizations to devise strategies of relationship marketing, or who are interested in doing future research in this field.RESUMENAunque las grandes superficies están imitando el formato de negocio de las tiendas de barrio ubicadas en los niveles socioeconómicos más bajos de la población colombiana, aún no han logrado su desplazamiento. Como resultado adverso a estos intereses, en los últimos años se ha observado un incremento en las ventas y participación de estos minoris-tas en el mercado colombiano. Este fenómeno que ha llamado la atención y ha sido objeto de estudio de investigadores desde la sociología, antropología, psicología, economía, administración y marketing, motivó el interés por realizar esta investiga-ción que tiene el propósito demostrar, desde la perspectiva del marketing relacional y los conceptos de redes sociales prima-rias, por qué las relaciones sociales y beneficios relacionales han sido los aspectos claves de éxito que han conformado la ventaja competitiva de las tiendas de barrio estudiadas en la ciudad de Santiago de Cali-Colombia. Dadas las característi-cas cualitativas de las variables a evaluar, la recolección e identificación de los hallazgos se realizaron mediante el uso de las técnicas de observación no estructurada, entrevistas en profundidad y análisis de contenido. Entre los principales ha-llazgos, se encontró que los aspectos que han favorecido la permanencia de este tipo de negocios en el mercado son: la proximidad espacial, las relaciones sociales y afectivas entre tendero y consumidor; las redes sociales humanas primarias e informales que surgen en la interacción que se presenta entre el tendero con los clientes, proveedores y otros tenderos. Las relaciones sociales que emergen de ésta interacción, producen vínculos sociales y afectivos de largo plazo, creando benefi-cios sociales, psicológicos, económicos y de personalización para las partes. Finalmente, se espera que los hallazgos identi-ficados sean de utilidad para que otras organizaciones diseñen estrategias de marketing relacional, o para quienes se en-cuentren interesados en realizar futuras investigación en este campo.

La Red

During the last decade, the Internet, and the social networks in particular, have gained relevance as spaces for interaction and socialization. The multiplication and penetration of social media, as well as the volume and intensity of interactions, have led to a migration of the public sphere towards these platforms. In this (apparently neutral) virtual context, where social networks contribute to the construction or amplification of social relations, the Internet is configured as a space of inequality where power relations and patriarchal practices are reproduced, amplified by the sensation of anonymity and its disinhibiting effect. This paper analyzes the presence of hate speech and misogyny in the Twitter conversation around 50 Spanish women with public visibility online and in the real world, belonging to diverse professional fields: science, communication, culture, sports, business, and politics. Based on an automated search for insults and other hate terms, a content analysis of the direct interactions and indirect mentions received by these women on this social platform over a period of 1 year was carried out. The results of this study highlight the toxicity of the Twittersphere for female users. Thus, 15% of direct interactions and 10% of indirect interactions directed at these women included some kind of insult or disqualification, although not necessarily of a sexist or misogynist nature. This violence is especially evident against women representatives of those areas with greater visibility and social influence such as communication and politics. Resumen En la última década, internet y, en concreto, las redes sociales, han cobrado relevancia como espacios de interacción y socialización. La multiplicación y penetración de las redes sociales, así como el volumen e intensidad de las interacciones, han propiciado un desplazamiento de la esfera pública hacia estas plataformas. Este contexto virtual aparentemente neutro, donde las redes sociales ayudan a la construcción o amplificación de las relaciones sociales, se configura como un espacio de desigualdad donde se reproducen las relaciones de poder y prácticas patriarcales, amplificadas por la sensación de anonimato y su efecto desinhibidor. El presente trabajo analiza la manifestación del discurso del odio y misoginia en la conversación en Twitter en torno a 50 mujeres españolas, con proyección pública en la Red y fuera de la Red, pertenecientes a diversos ámbitos profesionales: ciencia, comunicación, cultura, deporte, empresa y política. A partir de la búsqueda automatizada de insultos y otros términos de odio, se ha analizado el contenido de las interacciones directas y menciones indirectas que recibieron estas mujeres en esta plataforma social a lo largo de un año. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto la toxicidad de la tweetesfera para las usuarias. Así, el 15% de las interacciones directas y el 10% de las indirectas dirigidas a estas mujeres integran algún tipo de insulto o descalificación, aunque no necesariamente de carácter sexista o misógino. Una violencia que se hace especialmente patente contra las mujeres representantes de las áreas de mayor visibilidad e influencia social como la comunicación y la política.

The advent of online social networks (OSN) has transformed a common passive reader into a content contributor. It has allowed users to share information and exchange opinions, and also express themselves in online virtual communities to interact with other users of similar interests. However, OSN have turned the social sphere of users into the commercial sphere. This should create a privacy and security issue for OSN users. OSN service providers collect the private and sensitive data of their customers that can be misused by data collectors, third parties, or by unauthorized users. In this paper, common security and privacy issues are explained along with recommendations to OSN users to protect themselves from these issues whenever they use social media.

The Impact

Nowadays it is easy to find public statements about the situation of freedom of expression in different democracies questioning the exercise of this right, perhaps as a result of the political tensions to which democratic states have been subjected in recent years. In this sense, Spain does not escape from these diagnoses. Both international indicators that try to measure the situation and evolution of freedom of expression in different States and academic scholars highlight the excessive criminalization of certain speeches that end up in criminal proceedings that sentence people who make offensive expressions, mainly through social networks. However, in order to reach this diagnosis it is necessary to put together all the symptoms that would lead us to that conclusion. Therefore, in this paper I analyze two main indicators that could shed more light on the state of freedom of expression in Spain and the impact that social networks have had on it. Firstly, I analyze the legislative evolution of expression offences since 1995, to evaluate the limits of certain expressions in order to reach the conclusion that, effectively, over the years the punitive scope of what cannot be expressed has been extended, thus limiting, at least in abstract, freedom of expression. Secondly, I analyze the jurisprudential evolution of all these crimes since 1995 to show that, indeed, the proliferation of sentences from 2015 to the present shows the increase in the criminalization of expressions that are made eminently through social networks such as Twitter and Facebook. To conclude, I reflect on the possibility that the latest absolutory sentence by the Constitutional Court of the singer of the band Def con Dos César Strawberry will increase the feeling that, from now on, all expression is admissible and, therefore, will increase free expression in general and, in particular, in social networks, since, it does not seem that our legislator is willing to rectify in its steps the excessive criminalization of certain offenses. I also reflect on the need to approach freedom of expression in a more empirical way and the need to evaluate not only the limitations that the law and judicial processes impose on freedom of expression, but also the extent to which citizens in general and, in particular, users of social networks, without the need to have gone through any criminal proceedings, have stopped expressing their opinions because only in this way will it be possible to determine the state of health of our right to freedom of expression.
