The image that Tel Aviv has of itself
No full textIn 2009 the department of Interior-Building and Environmental Design at Shenkar Collage of Engineering and Design opened a critical debate about the urban condition of the city of Tel Aviv-Yafo: Tel Aviv – Yafo: Old-New Metropolis. As home to multiple and distinct communities representing a wide array of ethnic, religious, social and political backgrounds, it is a unique metropolis. The past symposium embraced the multi-layered complexity particular to Tel Aviv-Yafo aiming to inspire a new dialogue that would serve as the foundations for re-examining the cultural-spatial dynamics of this city with an eye toward the next 100 years. Considering that the 2009 symposium dealt with issues such as the putative democratization of the city and the dissolution of traditional patterns of social, economic and cultural segregation, our proposal for the 2012 symposium is to reveal and discuss the important questions concerning sustainability and reprocessing architectural culture in the contemporary urban environment of the city of Tel Aviv-Yafo. Going back to the idea of “spaceship earth” we would like to attempt a visionary awareness to anticipate and mobilize the urban and architectural future of the city by bringing together four different voices that have been and still are studying the city of Tel Aviv-Yafo. We find it absolutely fundamental to consider this 2012 dialogue as a work of thematic excavation through the stratification of themes of urban impact such as the condition of movement, mutation and consumption.

La salute come bene comune sostenibile
No full textIn recent decades we have witnessed an acceleration of technological, scientific and cultural expansion that has radically transformed the scenarios of social life, generated important opportunities, but also introduced issues relating to the sustainability of the process itself. Even in the health sector, the developments in scientific and technological knowledge have brought about changes that do not include only the field of medicine, but involve ethical, social, economic and, obviously psychological, issues. Sustainability is a question that is transversal to contemporaneity which, in order to be addressed, requires the establishment of a transdisciplinary field of knowledge. In light of this scenario, the author proposes the reference to Health Psychology as the fundamental vertex of a transdisciplinary field of knowledge that contributes to the development of a model of health as a sustainable common good

Jacobus Emerix de Matthis, Decisiones Sacrae Rotae Romanae, in Books that made the Law in the Western World: the Formation and Transmission of Western Legal Culture, Studies in the History of Law and Justice
No full textJacob Emerix de Matthis (1626-1696), judge of the Roman Sacra Rota for almost thirty years, is author of an important collection of Decisiones Sacrae Rotae Romanae, published in Rome in three volumes in 1701. The book, containing 1.370 decisions of the Roman Sacra Rota, spanning the period 1669-1696, belongs to the genre of the collections of the European great tribunals’ decisions, spread all over Europe between 14th-15th centuries and consolidated during 16th-17th. Between the most numerous, authoritative and widespread collections, were the Decisiones of the Roman Sacra Rota, the supreme tribunal of the State of the Church dating back to 14th century, whose prestigious and authoritative jurisdiction was known and referred to all over Europe. As a judge of the Roman Sacra Rota and between its most important and expert reporters, Emerix wrote his Decisiones in order to clarify and consolidate the points of law under discussion and, at the same time, to preserve the decisions of the court allowing its judges to refer to useful precedents in future analogous cases. Emerix attention to the position of the legal problem, always accurately described, exemplifies the changes occurred since 16th-17th centuries. First of all his decisiones, which belong to the individual collections, differ from the ones collected in the past, less detailed and more heterogeneous in their contents: being they written for personal usage, they normally included short legal maxims, consilia and personal opinions, while usually lacked the decision, which started to be put in writing systematically only after the reform of 1563. Secondly, the decision starts to be delivered no more on different legal questions, but on the «dubium generale totius causae complexivum», quite broadly worded, with the mention of the case as a whole. Emerix’ Decisiones mostly concern canon and civil law, with particular reference to matrimonial cases, execution of wills, land law. Anyway the decisions are by no means final judgments: according to rotal procedure, infact, the decisio was an autonomous extra-judicial act containing the reasoned conclusions of the twelve judges of the collegium, a simple account by the ponens about the learned opinions given by his colleagues in order to solve the dubium. The decisio would be communicated to the parties before the issue of the final judgment (sententia) − which, on the contrary, did not include motives – and delivered only if no new arguments or evidence were brought forward. This is why Emerix does not always report whether the decisions gave rise to a judgment or not: many cases were probably amicably settled and never brought to judgment, or were later superseded by other decisions in the same case. In tracing the authorities of the different arguments illustrated in the decisions, which appear as doctrinal works more than reports of cases, Emerix refers, as main sources of law, to the Corpus Juris Canonici and Corpus Juris Civilis, to the opinions of eminent canonists and civilians, to the opinions of past rotal judges and, most of all, to precedent decisions of the Sacra Rota itself, continuously cited. Emerix’ book enjoyed a wide international circulation and his decisions were frequently quoted in the main collections of 18th-19th centuries. The enormous success and international circulation of the Decisiones of the Sacra Rota, highly demanded by the auditores of the court and by lawyers in general, who found in them the doctrinal opinions of expert and renowned jurists and the solution to various legal problems analytically exposed, proves that the Decisiones had became a fundamental reference point in the administration of justice all over Europe, an indispensable mean to clarify and to know law overcoming legal uncertainty generated by the crisis of the jus commune
Narration Between logos and Pathos. The role of Story Telling in clinical Psychology
No full textAlthough narration has always been a sort of exclusive of research and psychological intervention, only in the last two decades has the narrative method taken on an explicit, pregnant identity, putting forward a conceptual and methodological alternative which, despite obvious differences, has appeared as a ‘turning point’ in several areas of the discipline. This paper stems from a socio-constructivist epistemological paradigm that emphasises the categorial and semiotic value of the mind as well as the symbolic processes of reality construction which the actors of the social relation perform intersubjectively. Based on this perspective the paper explores the construct of narrative thought as the link between the operative, conscious functioning of the mind and its emotional, unconscious one. Starting from this hypothesis, the paper investigates the construct of narration as a symbolic process – the output of narrative thought – placed midway between the affective symbolisations produced by the unconscious nature of the mind and the operative categories produced by rational and scientific thought. The analysis is carried out by working on the comparison/integration of models of cultural psychology and psychodynamics. The paper and its focus on the device of narration are based on the idea that a comparison between socio-constructivism and psychodynamics could translate into an increased understanding of the symbolic dynamics of meaning construction and thus of the links that are established between subjectivity, cultural models and cultural practices and of the symbolic models which may aid their transformation. The author also believes that, in carrying out this comparison, the contribution of semiotics – viewed as a new cross-disciplinary science of sense-making processes, of the ways in which a sense is given to the world through narration – can constitute a major expansion for psychology and in particular for the connection between meaning construction processes and intervention
