I molti vincitori e la metà degli elettori
No full textQuesti articoli sono stati pubblicati dal 26 aprile al 7 giugno all’interno del progetto Atlante elettorale della Società Italiana di Studi Elettorali (Sise) che - in collaborazione con Repubblica - offriva ai lettori una serie di uscite settimanali in vista delle elezioni europee dell'8-9 giugno 2024. L’ultimo è ovviamente uscito nell’immediato post-voto.
Il coordinamento scientifico ed editoriale del progetto è stato curato da: Luigi Ceccarini (Università degli Studi di Urbino); Marino de Luca (Università della Calabria); Chiara Fiorelli (Università di Roma La Sapienza); Paolo Natale (Università degli Studi di Milano); Fulvio Venturino (Università degli Studi di Cagliari); Antonella Seddone (Università degli Studi di Torino)
Motivi letterari nei libri per l’infanzia di Paolo Di Paolo
No full textThe article, organised in the form of a discussion, aims to analyse the themes and motifs of Paolo Di Paolo’s works that are addressed to young audiences. The author has recently published a large number of volumes directed just at younger readers. When beholding the titles that constitute the author’s bibliography, the reader is struck by Di Paolo’s predisposition to transform literary classics: as much in Giacomo il signor bambino as in the edition of the Divina Commedia, the author’s goal is to try to reach his new readers. Therefore, Di Paolo proves to be a prolific author of the genre; in fact, in his bibliography, volumes of fairy tales with a classic slant, such as La mucca volante, are listed as well.L’articolo contiene un’analisi di temi e di motivi delle opere di Paolo Di Paolo dirette al pubblico più piccolo. L’autore negli ultimi anni ha pubblicato un cospicuo numero di volumi indirizzati, infatti, proprio ai lettori più giovani. Ciò che stupisce scorgendo i titoli che costituiscono la bibliografia dell’autore, è la predisposizione a trasformare i classici della letteratura: tanto in Giacomo il signor bambino quanto nell’edizione della Divina Commedia l’obiettivo è cercare di raggiungere i lettori più giovani. Di Paolo si dimostra, quindi, un autore prolifico del genere, tant’è che nell’elenco non mancano volumi fiabeschi dal taglio classico come La mucca volante. Analizzare le opere giovanili dello scrittore costituisce un fatto inedito
Outcome of Distal First Metatarsal Osteotomy Shortening in Hallux Rigidus Grades II and III
No full textBackground: Existing techniques for operative treatment of hallux rigidus commonly combine skeletal and soft tissue interventions to obtain long-lasting relief of pain. To date, operative treatments include implant arthroplasty, cheilectomy, various osteotomies, nonimplant arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. We assessed a technique that respects the anatomy and joint function and used a shortening osteotomy of the head of the first metatarsal. Methods: We evaluated a series of 40 consecutive patients affected by grade II and III hallux rigidus, aged 32 to 79 years, who had undergone surgery from January 2010 to January 2014. All patients were evaluated clinically and radiographically, preoperatively and postoperatively, and underwent a final follow-up at a mean of 35.4 (range = 12-51) months. For the clinical evaluation, the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) clinical rating scale for the hallux metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal joints was used. Results: A patient survey revealed excellent and good overall satisfaction in 90% of the sample. Postoperative results included a significant increase (P <.001) in the median global AOFAS score, from 39 (range = 25-60) to 84 (range = 78-94). Conclusions: The technique of a shortening osteotomy of the first metatarsal head appeared to be useful for the correction of stiffness, pain relief, and an improvement in range of motion. Other advantages were that it preserved the integrity of the metatarsophalangeal joint and led to a rapid functional recovery. Level of evidence: Level IV, retrospective case series
Correction of Hammer Toe Deformity of Lateral Toes With Subtraction Osteotomy of the Proximal Phalanx Neck
No full textExisting techniques for surgical treatment of hammer toe commonly combine skeletal and soft tissues interventions to obtain a durable correction of the deformity, balance the musculotendinous forces of flexion and extension of the toe, and normalization of the relations between interosseous muscles and metatarsal bones. The most common surgical techniques can provide the correction of the deformity through arthroplasty with resection of the head of the proximal phalanx or arthrodesis of the proximal interphalangeal joint. In most cases, these have been associated with elongation of the extensor apparatus, capsulotomy of the metatarsophalangeal joint, and stabilization with a Kirschner wire. To experiment with a technique that respects the anatomy and joint function, we used a distal subtraction osteotomy of the proximal phalanx neck. We evaluated a series of 40 patients, aged 18 to 82years, who underwent surgery from January 2008 to December 2010. All patients were evaluated clinically and radiographically pre- and postoperatively and underwent examination at a mean final follow-up point of 24.4(minimal 12, maximal 36) months. For the clinical evaluation, we used the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society score. The rate of excellent and good results was >90%. Compared with other techniques, this technique led to considerable correction, restoration of the biomechanical and radiographic parameters, and an adjunctive advantage of preserving the integrity of the proximal interphalangeal joint. Thus, our results have caused us to prefer this technique
Le tre anime della sinistra e lo smarrimento del suo elettorato
No full textAlcuni mesi prima delle nuove elezioni parlamentari, le prospettive per il Partito Democratico (PD) erano già sfavorevoli. A partire dalla sconfitta nel referendum costituzionale (tenutosi il 4 dicembre 2016), la diminuzione del suo appeal elettorale nel successivo anno e mezzo è sembrata incessante, e le dimissioni di Matteo Renzi come Primo Ministro, sostituto da Paolo Gentiloni nel tentativo di riaccendere un senso di fiducia nel PD e nel suo governo, non hanno portato a nulla. Gli elettori del PD sembravano persi - sia dal punto di vista numerico sia dal punto di vista delle loro percezioni del partito; perché molti di loro non capivano più che cosa fosse distintivo della visione del loro partito o del tipo di società che mirava a raggiungere. I problemi che coinvolgono il PD italiano sono in realtà molto simili a quelli dell'intera sinistra europea.Several months before the new Parliamentary Election, the prospects for the Democratic Party (PD) already looked unfavourable. Since its loss in the constitutional referendum (held on 4 December 2016), the decrease in its electoral appeal over the subsequent year-and-a-half had seemed unremitting, and attempts to revive its fortunes – with the resignation of Matteo Renzi as Prime Minister and his replacement by Paolo Gentiloni in an effort to rekindle a sense of confidence in the PD and its government – came to nothing. PD voters seemed lost – both from the numerical point of view and from the point of view of their perceptions of the party; for many of them no longer understood what was distinctive about their party’s outlook or the type of society it was aiming to achieve. The problems involving Italian PD are actually very similar to those of the whole European Left
The Three Perspectives of the Left and the Gradual Loss of Its Electorate
No full textLa terza prova elettorale del Partito Democratico in consultazioni politiche si presentava sotto i peggiori auspici, già a partire da qualche mese prima della data del voto, il 4 marzo 2018. Una crisi di consensi che non conosceva di fatto soluzione di continuità dal referendum costituzionale, tenutosi il 4 dicembre 2016. Da allora, nel successivo anno e mezzo il declino dell’appeal elettorale pareva essere costante, e a nulla sembravano portare i tentativi di rianimarlo, con le dimissioni di Renzi da capo dell’esecutivo e l’avvento di Gentiloni al suo posto, nella speranza di riaccendere la fiducia degli italiani nei confronti del Pd e del suo governo. Un elettorato smarrito in ogni senso, sia dal punto di vista numerico che nella percezione del proprio partito, del quale molti non comprendevano più né quale fosse la proposta politica né l’idea di società cui fare riferimento. I problemi riguardanti il centro-sinistra italiano non parevano peraltro molto differenti da quelli delle medesime aree politiche del resto d'Europa.Several months before the new Parliamentary Election, the prospects for the Democratic Party (PD) already looked unfavourable.

Response to the Letter to the Editor on “The arthroereisis procedure in adult flexible flatfoot grade IIA due to insufficiency of posterior tibial tendon”
No full textThe Role of Arthroscopic Debridement after Ankle Fractures Treated with ORIF
No full textCategory: Ankle, Ankle Arthritis, Arthroscopy Introduction/Purpose: The role of ankle arthroscopy in managing the consequences of ankle fractures is yet to be fully estab- lished. This study aims to assess this procedure in terms of the accuracy of preoperative diagnosis, re-operation rate and patient- reported outcomes. Methods: We compared two homogeneous groups of 16 patients (32 in total, average age 40.6 years) operated for a fracture of the distal tibia and/or fibula treated with ORIF. For all fractures the AO classification was used. The baseline was 6 months after surgery. Inclusion criteria were: patients aged between 19 and 50 a pre-trauma Tegner score >3, FAOS score <75 at the baseline, R.O.M. <20° vs contralateral; we included patients with well-aligned osteosynthesis and with radiographic union. Patients with open fractures, with osteochondral lesions and with previous were excluded. In the first group we planned an arthroscopy of the ankle from 6 to 12 months after trauma, in the second group, we continued with conservative rehabilitation treatment. All patients were then re-evaluated at 3,6 and 12 months with questionnaires (Tegner activity level, and FAOS). The mean follow-up was 18.2 months. For all data statistical analysis was performed. Results: The results of our case-series showed excellent patient satisfaction (12/14) with a FAOS Score and an improved R.O.M. statistically significant (p <.001) in patients treated with ankle arthroscopy. Eighty percent was able to return to previous activity. The average time until return to sport was 5.3 ± 2.4 months. Seventy percent of the athletes still had occasional pain with sport. Conclusion: The literature on arthroscopic treatment after fracture is still poor but results obtained, even with a limited number of cases, and with a short follow-up, are positive, especially in those patients where the functional demand is highest
Pier Paolo Pasolini e la società: il "sogno di una cosa" travolto dalla "nuova preistoria"
No full textL’articolo prende in esame – nel centenario della nascita – il “pensiero politico” di Pier Paolo Pasolini. Vengono pertanto scandagliati (soprattutto) i suoi scritti sulla società, ma frequenti sono le incursioni nella letteratura e soprattutto nel cinema di questo autore del tutto originale. Ne emerge lo spessore di concetti spesso usati dal poeta per analizzare e criticare il presente: Nuova Preistoria, nuovo capitalismo, consumismo, edonismo, il Potere, il Palazzo, il Processo, sviluppo e progresso, sacralità in primis. Si evidenzia inoltre come l’occhio e il giudizio di Pasolini siano stati principalmente guidati dalla passione e solo di rimando dalla ragione. Un ruolo non secondario nella sua percezione del reale ha inoltre assunto la sua omosessualità. Nella parte finale dello scritto si analizzano alcuni strumenti tecnici utilizzati dall’autore per svolgere la propria opera di comprensione del presente e della sua conseguente traduzione artistico-critica.The article examines - in the centenary of his birth - the "political thought" of Pier Paolo Pasolini.
Therefore, it scrutinizes (above all) his writings on society, but there are frequent incursions into the literature and especially into the cinema of this completely original author. What emerges is the depth of concepts often used by the poet to analyze and criticize the present: New Prehistory, new capitalism, consumerism, hedonism, Power, the Palace, the Process, development and progress, sacredness in primis. It also shows how Pasolini's eye and judgment were mainly guided by passion and only by reason. His homosexuality also played a significant role in his perception of reality. In the final part of the paper we analyze some technical tools used by the author to carry out his work of understanding the present and its consequent artistic-critical translation
