Populist government and constitutional democracy: radical incompatibility or possible coexistence?
Until the first decade of the 21th century, scholars and reporters have identified contemporary populism as an element of anti-systemic revolt; furthermore, they have also recognized an incompatibility between populist phenomenon and government function. However, some recent cases of populist parties in power seem to be able to put into crisis more than one certainty regarding the nature and scope of the populist phenomenon. This observation raises the questions of this work: what harmful effects does populism in government produce on liberal institutions, pluralism, and representation in constitutional democracies? Do these effects merely erode the liberal component, or do they extend to produce a degeneration of democracy as a whole? And finally: what are the risks for democracy? The article corroborates the diarchic theories of democracy and aims to demonstrate the lack of compatibility between the principles of liberal democracy and populist principles, which have a negative impact not only on the liberal component, but also on the quality of democracy in its entirety

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

Differenziazione territoriale e qualità della democrazia
Il volume affronta lo studio delle fasi del processo di democratizzazione: transizione, consolidamento ed approfondimento. L'analisi, condotta utilizzando specifici indicatori, ispeziona la qualità della democrazia e le peculiarità che questo sistema politico presenta nei differenti contesti territoriali. L'esempio proposto riguarda il caso italiano, sul quale è stata condotta un'analisi empirica rispetto ai meccanismi di tutela dei diritti, delle libertà e degli altri elementi caratteristici dei sistemi democratici. Grazie a questo approccio diventa possibile rendersi conto dell'intollerabile divario che intercorre tra il Centro-Nord ed il Mezzogiorno e degli effetti nefasti che produce
