L'obbedienza come valore
Lo scritto rappresenta un contributo di riflessione, che si associa a quello dei colleghi penalisti Fausto Giunta e Vincenzo Maiello, a partire dal volume di Natalino Irti "Viaggio tra gli obbedienti", La nave di Teseo, 2022 (testo non identico e più ampio rispetto a quello del medesimo professor Irti con cui si apre il volume in oggetto). Vengono approfonditi, al di là delle dinamiche di obbedienza alla legge, le motivazioni della ricerca di normatività da parte di ciascun individuo in ambito sociale e il ruolo che assume l'obbedire alla propria coscienza anche laddove ciò possa risultare oneroso. Il tutto con un sguardo ai fini e alle inadeguatezze della odierna legislazione penale
Luci e ombre del diritto penale vivente tra legge e diritto delle Corti
La pubblicazione tratta del diritto penale come interpretato, a livello nazionale, dalla Corte costituzionale e dalla Corte di Cassazione e, a livello sovranazionale, dalle Corti europee (CGCE e CEDU). Uno spazio significativo viene anche dedicato alla trattazione del rapporto tra potere legislativo e potere giudiziario
“Così tu per me, così io verso di te”: il falso modello della giustizia che è urgente abbandonare
Introduzione volta a motivare come il superamento di una visione retributiva della giustizia non riguardi solo l'ambito del diritto penale, bensì costituisca un tema di rilievo generale nei rapporti umani, di estrema importanza anche ai fini della formazione sin dalla prima infanzi
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Clinical trial sponsors' refusal to communicate genetic research results to subjects
Il lavoro afferma che non può essere precluso, sia dal punto di vista bioetico che biogiuridico, il diritto del soggetto arruolato in una sperimentazione di accedere ai dati genetici desunti, nell'ambito della medesima, da propri materiali biologici, fermo il dovere di fornire tali dati con un counseling genetico adeguato.
Viene peraltro ritenuto lecito non prevedere una ordinaria comunicazione di quei dati, in assenza di una esplicita richiesta, quando gli stessi non possano assumere alcun significato per il soggetto di cui sopra, potendo produrre, conseguentemente, apprensioni ingiustificate
Non-invasive UWB sensing of astronauts’ breathing activity
The use of a UWB system for sensing breathing activity of astronauts must account for many critical issues specific to the space environment. The aim of this paper is twofold. The first concerns the definition of design constraints about the pulse amplitude and waveform to transmit, as well as the immunity requirements of the receiver. The second issue concerns the assessment of the procedures and the characteristics of the algorithms to use for signal
processing to retrieve the breathing frequency and respiration waveform. The algorithm has to work correctly in the presence of surrounding electromagnetic noise due to other sources in the environment. The highly reflecting walls increase the difficulty of the problem and the hostile scenario has to be accurately characterized. Examples of signal processing techniques able to recover breathing frequency in significant and realistic situations are shown and discussed
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
