    Contracts in the agri-food chain and unfair trading practices

    No full text
    reservedLa filiera agro-alimentare rappresenta un settore cruciale per l’economia, caratterizzato da una complessa rete di relazioni contrattuali tra imprese e produttori. La tesi esamina i principi generali del diritto agro-alimentare, con particolare riferimento al diritto europeo (Regolamento (CE) n. 178/2002 e la Politica Agricola Comune) e al diritto internazionale. Successivamente analizza i contratti che regolano le interazioni nella filiera, dalla vendita diretta ai contratti di integrazione verticale, con un focus sulla contrattazione collettiva e sulle recenti novità introdotte dal decreto legislativo n. 198/2021. Una particolare attenzione è dedicata poi all’emergere delle pratiche commerciali sleali, che spesso caratterizzano le relazioni tra i soggetti della filiera. L'analisi si focalizza sull'abuso di potere economico e sull’asimmetria informativa che penalizzano la parte economicamente debole, esplorando gli effetti che queste pratiche comportano. Il lavoro poi prosegue illustrando le principali misure normative adottate a livello europeo e nazionale, tra cui la Direttiva UE 2019/633 e il Decreto Legislativo n. 198/2021, proponendo una riflessione sull’efficacia delle sanzioni e degli strumenti di controllo. Infine, la tesi propone un caso studio con l’obiettivo di evidenziare le dinamiche operative della filiera agro-alimentare e il peso delle violazioni normative

    FRAGILE COUNTRIES AND THE 2008-2009 CRISIS.

    No full text
    This paper analyses the channels through which the economic and financial crisis of 2008-2009 is transmitted to fragile countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. Trade stands out as the main direct channel, even though intra-Africa remittances play a relevant role, given that most migrants in Sub-Saharan Africa fragile countries cannot afford the cost of mi-grating to Europe or to the United States and stay close, remaining in the continent. Whether reduced aid flows also act as a crisis transmission channel remains an open question, even though preliminary estimates suggest that, at least in the medium run, OECD countries are likely to lower aid, with potentially very damaging effects on fragile countries. The paper also shows that fragile countries are characterised by very low re-silience and capacity to cope with shocks. It concludes, by highlighting how Sub-Saharan Africa fragile countries' policymakers' room for manoeuver is limited in periods of crisis because of low fiscal space and limited institutional capacity. It advocates that the right response to the crisis would be to mobilise domestic resources, although this will require functional institutions able to offset the potential trade-offs between adverse short-term shocks and a long-term perspective.financial crisis, Sub Saharan Africa, real transmission channels.

    I nomi parlanti nel romanzo Il demone meschino di Fëdor Sologub

    No full text
    This study aims to demonstrate how the use of speaking names in F. Sologub’s novel The Petty Demon (1907) enhances the text by establishing meaningful semantic connections. Through the strategic application of onomastics, the author introduces new layers of meaning that enrich the overall significance of the work. Several notable examples will be presented to illustrate this point, including a speaking name in the literal sense (Varvara), a name with predictive qualities (Volodin), and a name linked to Russian folklore (the demon Nedotykomka)

    European Sharing and Collaborative Cities: The Italian Way

    No full text
    The article analyses the issue of Sharing and Collaborative Cities from a primarily methodological perspective. Starting from statistical data that confirm the constant growth of the urban population, and taking into account the major issues that affect urban policies (environment, inequalities, poverty), the author focuses on the different methodological approaches in the study of collaborative cities. Subsequently, an Italian case study is presented, which involves shared administration and the main implementation tools involved (Regulation of the management and regeneration of urban commons, including collaboration agreements)

    Soldati, sanzioni, i prati di Apamea e Cuiacio nel Commentarius di Gotofredo a C. Th. 7.7.3

    No full text
    This article, following Godefroy’s Commentarius on C. Th. 7.7.3, focuses on two different aspects of the constitution, issued by Arcadius in 398 for the purpose of prohibiting soldiers from feeding their animals in the public meadows of Apamea and in the private ones in Antioch, under penalty of a fine of twelve pounds of gold. In Code of Justinian 11.61.2, this constitution presents a slightly different text tradition. Firstly, the author analyses which type of responsibility (personal or collective) is imposed on soldiers. A quote by Godefroy from Cujas, who reports a misterious passage of the Basilica, is then put into examination

    Storie di navi, di case, di cose… L’opera di Roberto Innocenti e la capacità di vedere/narrare oltre l’umano

    No full text
    This article analyses the work of the author and illustrator Roberto Innocenti in an ecocritical and ecomaterialist perspective. All the books for children created by Innocenti over a forty-year long career (1980s–2020s) are characterized by a passionate attention for things, objects, settings, materials, brought to the forefront and depicted in an iperrealistic way, while human beings are represented as small and distant entities, i.e.: as part of the varied tissue of forms, presences and stories of which the world is made. This propensity to attribute importance and meaning to the non-human world, and especially to ‘things’, is crucial, according to the thinkers of Ecocriticism and New Materialism. After centuries of anthropocentrism, an epistemic shift is necessary to create a new balance between man and environment, mind and matter, subject and object, and this shift can be found in Innocenti’s books, whose narrative/visual strategies succeed in representing reality as a multilayered dimension full of vibrant matter, inextricably human and non-human.L’articolo analizza in ottica ecocritica ed eco-materialista l’opera dell’autore e illustratore Roberto Innocenti. Tutti i libri per l’infanzia che Innocenti ha realizzato (dagli anni Ottanta a oggi) si impongono per un’attenzione appassionata alle ‘cose’, agli oggetti, agli ambienti, agli sfondi, portati in primo piano e iper-realisticamente resi assai più di quanto non accada ai personaggi umani, immancabilmente raffigurati come piccoli e lontani, come parte del variegato tessuto di forme, presenze e storie di cui si compone il mondo. Questa propensione a riconoscere importanza e significatività al non-umano, a fare diventare quello il focus della rappresentazione/narrazione è cruciale per i teorici dell’Ecocriticism, e ancor più del New Materialism, per i quali, dopo secoli di antropocentrismo, è necessario un nuovo paradigma epistemologico capace di ripristinare un equilibrio, in Occidente infranto, fra uomo e ambiente, mente e materia, soggetto e oggetto. Nei libri di Innocenti la realtà è mostrata come dovrebbe sempre essere intesa, per gli studiosi del Post-umano: come una dimensione multiforme, relazionale, composta di vibrante materia, sia essa umana o non-umana

    Una versione inedita della «Legenda sanctae Clara e virginis» (BHL 1815) nel leggendario di Pietro Calò

    No full text
    The article provides for the first time the critical edition of the life of St. Clare contained in the Legendae de sanctis by Pietro Calò. The primary source of the text is undoubtedly the Legenda sanctae Clarae virginis (BHL 1815), commissioned by Alexander IV and attributed to Thomas of Celano, but in a much abbreviated form. Given Caló's faithfulness to his models, the research attempts to identify an already epitomised version of the Legenda, that may have been used by the Dominican. The types of texts analysed are as follows: epitomes of the Legenda; minor Latin legends; earlier and contemporary hagiographic works; hagiographic materials of Venetian provenance. The conclusion is that none of the sources coincide with Caló's life, leaving open the possibility that the author himself prepared the abbreviation, in accordance with what seems to occur in other parts of the Legendariu
