    Giuliano Amato, Antitrust and the Bounds of Power

    Barry E. Hawk reviews Giuliano Amato, Antitrust and the Bounds of Power. This Book Review states that Professor Giuliano Amato has successfully written a refreshing and insightful book on antitrust policy after more than a century of US debate and almost half a century of European debate. In his highly enlightening opus on Antitrust and the Bounds of Power, Professor Amato writes from the Olympian heights as the former head of the well respected Italian Antitrust Authority, a former Prime Minister of Italy, and a present professor at the European University Institute in Florence. The book places antitrust law in the broader context of political theory and history. Although the author modestly states that the book is written for young people embarking on an immersion in antitrust law, seasoned antitrust veterans will greatly benefit from Professor Amato\u27s measured wisdom

    Dans un monde post-national

    The Author in this work deals with the concepts of sovereignty, State and law, in the perspective of globalization and of the so called glocalization. In the light of the end of the modern State, the Author investigates the possibility of law and society of the people.Dans le cadre d’un monde post-national, toutes les formes de vie ne pouvent pas être poursuvies: on doit aspirer uniquement aux forms de vie dont les droits compossibles. C’est au nom de la compossibilité que les revendications avancéees par touts les formes (choix) de vie doivent être jugées, qu’il s’agisse de revedications partagéees, de reventications respecées, de revendications tolérées ou de revendications prohibées

    Sfide di teoria giuridica

    In quest’opera, l’autrice affronta le questioni e le sfide giuridico-politiche con le quali il giurista-teorico è chiamato – suo malgrado – a confrontarsi di continuo: conoscenza e/o valutazione? Creazione vs. interpretazione? Fondazione e/o giustificazione? Diritti o doveri? È giusto ciò che piace agli déi o piace agli déi ciò che è giusto?In this work, the author examins legal and political issues and challenges that the jurist-theorist always face, despite himself: knowledge and/or evaluation? Creation vs interpretation? Foundation and/or justification? Rights or duties? It’s just what gods like or gods like what it’s just

Consequently to the diffusion of these systems, new software and complex signal processing methodologies are spreading and are gaining more and more interest. For testing the performances of new software and/or techniques, the availability of synthetic signals with a-priori known characteristics can be very helpful. In this paper we describe an updating of a procedure previously published for the computerized simulation of fetal heart rate signals, realized in order to obtain more realistic signals. Obtained results, analyzed by a team of experts, are satisfying, in that new simulated signals appear less regular and more complex, and hence more similar to real signals. Nevertheless, further research is necessary for obtaining very realistic signals. The future research will be initially focused on the study of floatingline and uterine contractions simulation

    La tutela dell’ambiente in Europa. Dai presupposti teorici al diritto e ai principi

    No full text
    Environmental protection in Europe. From theoretical assumptions to law and principles. An an- cient philosophical school, named anthropocentrism, does not recognize the real impor- tance and the value of nature, considering it as a mere item which belongs to humani- ty. On the other hand, biocentrism puts nature in the center, recognizing its importance and its moral value. Last but not least, deep ecology states the self-realization of all li- ving beings – human and not –, claiming their right to realize their own Self. European Law has been inspired by such philosophical schools, that is why it changed its conside- ration of nature since the Treaty of 1957. In those early years, European law seemed to be not so concerned about nature and environment. In reverse, the Treaty on the Fun- ctioning of the European Union states new important rights and principles. Starting from such considerations, the Author explains the role played by environmental protection in European Law, analyzing its theoretical assumptions and criticizing its philosophical foundations

    FIDEIUSSIONI OMNIBUS E INTESA ANTITRUST

    Con la sentenza numero 41994 del 2021, la Cassazione dichiara la nullità parziale dei contratti di fideiussione omnibus stipulati “a valle” di intese anticoncorrenziali. Secondo l’Autore, tale rimedio è basato su ragioni di opportunità ma la sua costruzione si fonda su un ragionamento logico-giuridico di dubbia solidità. In the pronounce n. 41994 of 2021, the Italian Supreme Court declares the partial invalidity of the omnibus suretyship contracts following an anti-competitive agreement. By the Author point of view, this remedy is based on reasons of convenience but its construction suffers a logical-legal reasoning of dubious solidity

    Automatic Measurement of Acquisition for COVID-19 Related Information

    This paper investigates data representation and extraction procedures for the management of domain-specific information regarding COVID-19 information. To integrate among different data sources, including data contained in COVID-19 related clinical texts written in natural language, Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and the main tools available for this purpose were studied. In particular, we use an NLP pipeline implemented in python to extract relevant information taken from COVID-19 related literature and apply lexicometric measures on it. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG

    Hand in glove: understanding the hand puppet’s life and liveness as a precursor to its application in education and therapy

    Get PDF
    Hand or glove puppetry is one of the oldest and most common varieties of puppetry, appearing across the globe. While there are variations, the inexpensive, portable, and responsive medium has commonalities derived from its morphology, its relationship to the human hand and body, and its direct animation technique. Found in many educational, recreational, and therapeutic settings for children, recently more research has demonstrated its effectiveness in applied puppetry, in particular when working with students with autism spectrum disorder or ASD. Despite this, many important aspects of the hand puppet and best practices for its usage may not be widely known. In this article, Dr. Felice Amato discusses the hand puppet as a medium, and the specific qualities and techniques that make it a powerful tool for child development. The author explores the way that it connects to the human body through gesture and affect and its sensory properties and the connection to assisting in supporting social interaction. She summarizes findings and describes a variety of insights from puppeteers who work in applied puppetry, specifically with students with exceptionalities. Amato offers insights and recommendations for ways to integrate puppets in a way that is grounded in subtle understandings of the medium while being flexible, responsive, and strategic.Accepted manuscrip

    A hybrid locality constraint on allomorphy: Evidence from Korean

    No full text
    Korean exhibits a case of suppletion of the verbal root give, depending on two joint contexts: (i) the dative argument bears the feature [+author] and (ii) the illocutionary force is imperative. We argue for a hybrid type of locality constraint on allomorphy, which takes into account both linear and structural adjacency, with some allomorphy being subject to linear adjacency and other allomorphy being subject to structural adjacency
