    Vittima, mediazione e riparazione. La giustizia riparativa tra Scilla e Cariddi = Victim, Mediation, and Reparation. Restorative Justice between Scylla and Charybdis

    No full text
    The paper summarizes the author’s intervention in the debate on Tamar Pitch’s work, Il malinteso della vittima, and explores the issue of criminal mediation and restorative justice. The discussion focuses on the author’s criticism of restorative justice, which represents a critical, anti-securitarian approach. Among the criticisms addressed, the author focuses on the definition of “victim” in the criminal context, pointing out the risk of legitimizing the “criminal law of the enemy”. Possible objections regarding the handling of restorative justice in cases of domestic and sexual violence are also analyzed. Instead, the author emphasizes the potential of restorative justice in fostering reeducation and reducing recidivism, but raises doubts about its effective implementation, examining practical challenges and critical issues in the Italian context. The conclusion reflects on the delicate balance between abolitionism and retributionism in restorative justice, highlighting the need for ongoing analysis based on evidence and experience

    Sport e società: due modelli interpretativi tra aggressività e civilizzazione

    No full text
    Starting from an analysis of the main theories and some of the most significant empirical research on sport, this article critically discusses the contrast between the "drive discharge" and "culture pattern" models, regarding the role and impact that sport covers in society. With the support of an interdisciplinary analysis and a micro-sociological, evolutionary and ethological approach, the author concludes by supporting validity of the drive discharge model, for which the institutionalization of sport and sports fandom would be part of the civilization process described by Norbert Elias

    L’alba di una nuova professione : la pratica dell’organizational ombudsman

    No full text
    The organizational ombudsman practice is becoming in recent years a new field of interest in the academia. Born in North America and now spreading to Europe, the organizational ombudsman is a “neutral” employee in charge of dealing with disputes and complaints within the organization. Many universities, corporations and government agencies have an ombuds office today, but extensive empirical research in the field is still lacking. This article features interviews with some of the most prominent people in the organizational ombudsman world: 8 university ombudsmen, 4 ombudsmen from a government agency, 4 corporate ombudsmen, 1 community ombudsman and 1 ombudsman working in a international organisation have discussed with the author various aspects of this new profession. Participant observation was also conducted during the joint meeting of two professional ombuds organisation, and some major issues such as the kind of systemic changes generated by ombudsmen and the evaluation of the ombudsman impact were discussed and examined. Finally, two innovative ombudsman schemes have been analyzed in details: the ombudsman/mediator programme in the health care complaints sector and the community ombudsman in charge of dealing with disputes and relational dissatisfaction within a religious congregation

    Cittadini e amministrazioni : burocrazie disfunzionali e diffusione dei rimedi

    No full text
    La relazione affronta il tema del rapporto tra cittadini e pubbliche amministrazioni alla luce dei problemi di comunicazione e di efficacia dell’azione evidenziati negli apparati burocratici pubblici. Nella prima parte si passeranno criticamente in rassegna le teorie che, superando la costruzione weberiana di burocrazia razionale e legale, hanno portato allo scoperto gli elementi disfunzionali presenti nelle amministrazioni pubbliche. Nella seconda parte si metteranno in luce i rimedi escogitati alla disfunzionalità burocratica, e si evidenzierà come le recenti tendenze nella riorganizzazione delle funzioni pubbliche vivano un periodo di convergenza internazionale, con la diffusione sempre più rapida degli istituti di partecipazione e di trasparenza rivelatisi più efficaci, tra cui in primo luogo l’ombudsman (difensore civico). Si accennerà infine alle specifiche problematiche poste dal rapporto tra cittadini e pubbliche amministrazioni nei contesti di plurilinguismo amministrativo, a partire dalle elaborazioni sul tema della “representative bureaucracy” sviluppate nel mondo anglosassone
