- Airbnb y la intermediación turística. ¿Competición o coopetición? Percepción de los agentes de viajes en España(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Rivera-García, J. (Jorge); Pastor, R. (Ricardo)Airbnb is the most outstanding example of P2P platform in the accommodation industry. The studies on this phenomenon have focused on its impact on the hotel industry; leaving aside the effect it produces on tourism intermediation, specifically travel agencies. This paper analyzes this impact in a sector that perceives how Airbnb’s disruptive innovation displaces it from the traditional vacation apartment rental business and threatens to do so with activities. The discussion is about whether the travel agency industry has the need and even if it would be willing to work in a coopetitive system, similar to the one that has occurred recently with the implementation of Civitatis or Booking in the sales processes of travel agencies. It is concluded that the travel agency prioritizes strengthening its repositioning in this product, allying itself with the main market player despite the probable reduction in margins.

- El trabajo como fuente de resultados. Hacia una conceptualización más integrada del diagnóstico del enriquecimiento del trabajo en América latina(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Broveglio, G.D. (Gerardo-Darío); Genoud, M.A. (María Andrea)This work describes how the Diagnostic Tool that seeks to Enrich Labor Functions (HDEFL), works in Latin America, adapted from the Model of the Job Characteristics Theory (MCP) of Hackman and Oldham (1974 and its various reviews) and based on research on labor structures carried out during 10 years in Argentina by Genoud, Broveglio and Picasso (2014, 2018). The interdisciplinary integrative approach to work design, allows to identify what characteristics of work design (CDT, motivational, social and contextual variables), activate three critical psychological states (EPC), conditioning the results of work (RT) in workers, in terms of behavior, attitudes and well-being. The typology of the study is exploratory, descriptive and explanatory; it seeks to encourage transdisciplinary interpretative cuts in the organizational studies anchored in the Sociology of Work, Administration sciences and Organizational Psychology.
