La liberalización de los horarios comerciales. Un análisis de la opinión de la sociedad española

Abstract

In this work the opinion of the Spanish society about liberalization of the commercial schedules is analyzed, using a representative survey of the Spanish population made by the Survey Research Center.The results show that something more than half of the Spanish population is in favor of the hour regulation, agreement that increases in the groups with greater level of education and in the wage-earners. The longitudinal analysis keeps awake that the opinion towards the limitation in the commercial schedules has not changed five years in the last. However, in spite ofthis stability it is precise to also emphasize the existence of a great social fragmentation that allows the location of social groups with opposed opinions. In fact, the opinion towards the liberalization of the commercial schedules more is related to occupational variables -fundamentally with the fact to work outside the home that with sociodemográficas variables, mainly the level of studies, that with socioeconomic variables.
