Populist ideology, ideological attitudes, and anti-immigration attitudes as an integrated system of beliefs.
No full textA challenge for the identification of the core components of a beliefs system is the topological examination of these components within the overall structure of the said system. By modeling beliefs as nodes of interconnected networks, this research investigated the centrality of adherence to populist ideology and classical ideological attitudes in relation to voting behavior and negative feelings toward immigrants. Data from a sample of 774 Italian adults were examined by means of three Network Analysis models. Results showed four constitutive dimensions of populist ideology: People Sovereignty, Anti-elitism, People Homogeneity, and Manichaeism. The dimensions of Anti-elitism, People Sovereignty and Homogeneity were found to be the core. Analyses also highlighted the centrality of right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) and social dominance orientation (SDO) within the broader beliefs system, including voting, populist ideology dimensions, and anti-immigration. RWA was positively related to the core of populist ideology, whilst SDO was negatively associated with or unrelated to it. However, both RWA and SDO exceeded populist dimensions when associated with populist right-wing voting, representing the unique intermediate links in connecting it with anti-immigration. Five Star Movement voting emerged as a purer form of populist support, relating directly only to populist dimensions and placing itself at a greater distance from ideological attitudes and anti-immigration
Introduction of a Breakage Probability Function in the Hydrocracking Reactor Model
No full textThis paper shows how a breakage probability function for the C-C bonds, elaborated from experimental evidence reported in literature, is introduced in the reactor model for the hydrocracking of Fischer-Tropsch waxes. The results demonstrate a better response to the variation of the operating conditions (especially as concerns temperature) and show product distributions closer to the experimental ones than those predicted by the previous model [Pellegrini, L. A. et al. Chem. Eng. Sci. 2008, 63, 4285]. The agreement with the experimental data has also been enhanced introducing a dependence on temperature (in addition to the dependence on the number of carbon atoms) in the expressions for the Langmuir constants and giving the equilibrium constants for isomerization reactions a new function derived from a thermodynamic study
Dalla gestione alla destinazione dei beni sequestrati e confiscati. Attivazione di un percorso di responsabilità sociale
No full textLa legislazione italiana come unicum a livello internazionale, prevede che i beni sequestrati e confiscati debbano essere riutilizzati a fini istituzionali e sociali. Si tratta di un percorso che coinvolge diversi attori tutti impegnati nel restituire alla collettività ciò che la criminalità organizzata ha defraudat
Do Capital Subsidies Affect Growth in the Tourism Industry?
No full textThe Italian literature on the evaluations of the impact of L. 488/1992 public subsidies deals with the estimation of treatment effects on manufacturing firms, while at now the impact on tourism firms has been never investigated. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the causal effect of L. 488 policy intervention to tourism industry in the case of a continuous treatment, exploring the impact of differences in treatment level on tourism firms performance. A new estimation approach is used (Adorno, Bernini and Pellegrini; 2007) for the evaluation of the effects of a continuous treatment based on a two-step matching method: in the first step, treated and not treated units are matched on the basis of a propensity score function; in the second step, among matched units in the first step, another matching procedure pair units with similar treatment level. The impact of L.488 on tourism firms is evaluated with respect to the main performance variables
Conflicts and Negotiations in the Intergenerational Succession of Family Firms: A Literature Review
No full textThis chapter intends to stimulate a serious debate on the topic of conflict in family businesses and the theory of negotiation as a tool to resolve these conflicts. The methodology is based on the survey of the main literature on these topics.
Although both literatures on conflict management and family business are highly developed, scholars and researchers have not yet deepened several areas of specific conflicts emerging in family businesses. Thus, the two filed are not yet fully
integrated, showing a potential for future research avenues. We then propose a research agenda identifying the issues and research gaps that should be explored by researchers to reach a deeper understanding on conflict resolution in family
businesses
