La Cassazione si pronuncia sull'esatta portata della fattispecie di "denuncia di un sinistro non accaduto" di cui all'art. 642 c.p.
Nella prima parte della nota, l’Autore analizza la fattispecie di «denuncia di un sinistro non accaduto» di cui all’art. 642, comma 2, c.p., introdotta nel 2002 nell’ambito della riforma delle assicurazioni R.C. Auto, per, poi, affrontare la questione su cui si è pronunciata la Corte di cassazione, relativa al significato da attribuire al concetto di “sinistro”. Infine, l’Autore offre le proprie riflessioni sui rapporti intercorrenti tra la fattispecie esaminata e le altre ipotesi delittuose previste dall’art. 642 c.p. e sulla compatibilità di tali reati con il principio di offensività.In the first part of the note, the Author analyzes the crime of “denunciation of a false accident” that was introduced into the art. 642 c.p. in 2002, and, then, the question about the meaning of “sinistro” (accident) on which the Supreme Court stated. Finally, the Author offers his own reflections on the connection between the examinated crime and other felonies provided under art. 642 c.p., and, also, on compatibility of those crimes with the principle of seriousness of the offense
Falso, fede pubblica e segni di riconoscimento. Gli artt. 473 e 474 c.p.: bene giuridico ed extrema ratio in un'ipotesi sistematica
Dopo aver analizzato i concetti di "falso" e di "fede pubblica", l'Autore tenta una ricostruzione dei reati di cui agli artt. 473 e 474 c.p. orientata ai principi del diritto penale
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
«Contraffazione palese» di prodotti industriali e "giurisprudenza penale del nemico". studio sull'uso distorto del diritto penale
Lo scritto affronta in maniera critica, e non puramente ricognitiva, il processo di “stratificazione argomentativa” che la magistratura, nel corso di decenni, ha sviluppato per sostenere la rilevanza penale della c.d. «contraffazione palese» di prodotti industriali, consistente nella messa in vendita sulle strade di oggetti recanti marchi contraffatti di rinomate aziende di moda da parte di ambulanti, spesso soggetti poveri ed emarginati, in modo tale da rendere evidente al potenziale acquirente l’origine degli stessi.
Per giustificare la sussumibilità sotto l’art. 474 C.p. di fatti palesemente inoffensivi per il bene giuridico selezionato (la fede pubblica), attraverso la “scoperta” di oggettività giuridiche diverse e incongruenti con quest’ultimo e l’individuazione di momenti futuri ed eventuali di offesa si è inevitabilmente pervenuti all’applicazione analogica in malam partem della fattispecie incriminatrice, in spregio al basilare principio di legalità.
Per descrivere il particolare atteggiamento tenuto dagli organi giurisdizionali, di merito ma soprattutto di legittimità, dietro cui sembrano celarsi alcune note tendenze illiberali, si è utilizzata la locuzione “giurisprudenza penale del nemico”, sulla scia della nota teoria di matrice germanica del “diritto penale del nemico” (“Feindstrafrecht”).
La vicenda giuridica della «contraffazione palese» testimonia, così, non solo la possibilità ma anche la facilità con cui si possa usare in maniera distorta il diritto penale, per perseguire finalità ad esso estranee, frutto di una scelta consapevole che suscita forti perplessità sotto il profilo della ragionevolezza e della giustizia, e altresì dell’utilità, della convenienza e dell’efficienza
