    Geographies of Federalism during the Italian Risorgimento, 1796-1900

    No full text
    "Ferretti pushes the debate about the radical-democratic strands in Italian Unification (the Risorgimento) beyond the usual oppositions -republicanism v. socialism, centralism v. federalism - to consider how much the contentions of the time extended to consideration of authoritarianism, militarism, and colonialism rather than just administrative arrangements per se. In taking a fundamentally geographical approach to the debate, Ferretti not only provides a new perspective on the radical impulses in the Risorgimento but also contributes to the contemporary rethinking of nation-statehood, territorial sovereignty, and the possibilities of transnational federalism. Perhaps most importantly, this book shows that the form which Italian unification took was never a foregone conclusion. There is a broader lesson here." John Agnew, Professor of Geography, University of California Los Angeles, USA Combining intellectual history, geography and political science, this book addresses the relations between geography and the federalist tendencies of key individuals during the nineteenth-century Italian Risorgimento. The book investigates the development of transnational federalist attitudes amongst a political network of intellectuals, and hones in on several understudied figures who played important roles in the Italian radical movements for national and social liberation. Notably, this includes political geographers who mobilised geographical metaphors to foster change and reorganise territories. The author demonstrates how federalism, anarchism and republicanism were all connected and led not only to autonomy in Italy, but more locally within its regions and municipalities, and more broadly across Europe over the ‘Long Risorgimento’ period. Contributing to current debates on federalism and anti-colonialism, this book will appeal to historical geographers, political scientists and those researching the history of federalism, republicanism and anarchism in Europe

    Logiche di lean production nella cantieristica navale: considerazioni generali e applicazioni nella progettazione della linea di assemblaggio per il modello Ferretti 450.

    L'elaborato di tesi è stato redatto durante un progetto semestrale in Ferretti Group riguardante il campo di applicazione delle logiche della lean production all'interno del settore della cantieristica navale. Il primo capitolo contiene una descrizione dell'evoluzione del Gruppo Ferretti, dalla nascita fino ai giorni nostri. Nel secondo capitolo vi è una ampia descrizione della filosofia lean e delle tecniche e egli strumenti usati nei contesti aziendali; il terzo capitolo nasce invece per sintetizzare una serie di articoli accademici inerenti al tema del "lean shipbuilding". Infine il quarto capitolo descrive alcune attività eseguite in azienda, a supporto della nascita di una nuova linea di assemblaggio per il modello Ferretti 450

    La dimensione linguistica nell’apprendimento della matematica: un esempio di attività laboratoriale

    Nel presente contributo si propongono riflessioni circa l’importanza dell’educazione linguistica nell’apprendimento della matematica. Il ruolo fondamentale della lingua nell’apprendimento della matematica è messo in luce nelle indicazioni curricolari ministeriali e nei principali documenti nazionali e internazionali in campo educativo. A partire da alcuni dei principali risultati di ricerca, si presentano alcune delle fasi del laboratorio svolto durante il percorso di ricerca-formazione sul tema
