Quale tutela per il lupo (Canis lupus)? La situazione attuale e le possibili prospettive
In last few years the wolf population has greatly increased in Italy. This study is aimed at analyzing the national and international regulatery framework of the wolves protection and the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice. In this regards, two of the latest laws of 2018 – issued by the Autonomous Provinces of Trento e Bolzano – which allowed, in particular situations, the killing of wolves, will be examined in the light of the sentence of Corte Costituzionale n. 215 of 2019. Finally, possible legal tools will be selected in order to foster wolf-human coexistenc

Trust in authorities monitoring the distribution of genetically modified foods: dimensionality, measurement issues, and determinants
Based on a combined internet and mail survey in Germany the independence of indica-tors of trust in public authorities from indicators of attitudes toward genetically modified food is tested. Despite evidence of a link between trust indicators on the one hand and evaluation of benefits and perceived likelihoods of risks, correlation with other factors is found to be moderate on average. But the trust indicators exhibit only a moderate relation with the re-spondents’ preference for either sole public control or a cooperation of public and private bodies in the monitoring of GM food distribution. Instead, age and location in either the New or the Old Lander are found to be significantly related with such preferences
Determination of lomefloxacin in human plasma by solid-phase extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection
A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of lomefloxacin in human plasma has been developed and validated. A solid-phase extraction procedure was used to isolate lomefloxacin from the biological matrix prior to the quantitative analysis. The compound was separated on a Vydac anion-exchange column using acetonitrile—phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) as the mobile phase and quantified by measuring its UV absorbance at 280 nm. The lower limit of detection for the analyte was 0.05 μg ml−1. Enoxacin was used as the internal standard. The calibration graph of the method was linear from 0.1 to 10 μg ml−1 of lomefloxacin in human plasma. This procedure is suitable for pharmacological and pharmacokinetic studies of lomefloxacin

A critical account of the relationship between institutional trust, risk perception, and technology acceptance with an application to genetically modified foods
This article critically reflects on the widely held view of a causal chain with trust in public authorities impacting technology acceptance via perceived risk. It first puts forward conceptual reason against this view, as the presence of risk is a precondition for trust playing a role in decision making. Second, results from consumer surveys in Italy and Germany are presented that support the associationist model as counter hypothesis. In that view, trust and risk judgments are driven by and thus simply indicators of higher order attitudes toward a certain technology which determine acceptance instead. The implications of these findings are discussed
Al Museo Lombroso di Torino il caso del cranio di Giuseppe Villella: un patrimonio in beni culturali, la sua vera storia, le tappe giudiziarie, le implicazioni giuridiche e museologiche
Il cranio di Giuseppe Villella, sul quale Cesare Lombroso fondò la sua teoria dell’atavismo, è esposto al Museo di Antropologia criminale “Cesare Lombroso” dell’Università di Torino. È stato oggetto di una vicenda giudiziaria che si è ora conclusa, dopo sette anni, con una sentenza della Corte di Cassazione di grande rilevanza per i musei italiani, che ribadisce l’importanza storico-scientifica del reperto e la sua natura di bene culturale

Do consumers want public or private bodies to monitor animal friendly production and marketing schemes? And does trust matter?
Producing according to enhanced farm animal welfare (FAW) standards increases costs along the livestock value chain, especially for monitoring certified animal friendly products. In the choice between public or private bodies for carrying out and monitoring certification, consumer preferences and trust play a role. We explore this issue by applying logit analysis involving socio-economic and psychometric variables to survey data from Italy. Results

Etnografia digitale, netnografia e autoetnografia: ricerche tra vecchi punk, giovani neopagani e membri di una vasta comunità BDSM della Repubblica ceca
Il capitolo presenta l'esperienza personale dell'autore, con l'utilizzo dei dati e delle esperienze raccolte attraverso internet, la netnografia come forma di ricerca qualitativa e l'accettazione personale dell'autoetnografia per la comprensione di sé, dell'altro e della cultura. Saranno analizzati 12 studi e ricerche realizzate dallo stesso autore, da solo o in qualità di coautore, tra gli anni 2005 e 2019, su temi di ricerca differenti, ma concentrati su selezionate sottoculture attive nella Repubblica Ceca. Il capitolo è concepito come un'introspezione diacronica in cui l'autore descrive i suoi primi tentativi di utilizzare pagine web e discussioni in internet come fonte di citazioni in articoli scientifici, fino al raggiungimento di una metodologia netnografica più matura.The chapter presents the personal experience of the author, with the use of data and experiences collected through the internet, the netnography as a form of qualitative research, and the personal acceptance of the autoethnography for the understanding of self, other, and culture.
