Il ghetto e lo sciopero: braccianti stranieri nell'Italia meridionale
Full text linkIn questo articolo, ci concentreremo sull’analisi di due aspetti particolarmente rilevanti: la segregazione in cui vivono i lavoratori migranti nell’agricoltura meridionale e l’organizzazione del reclutamento e del lavoro attraverso il sistema del caporalato. A questo proposito, metteremo a confronto due casi, quello di Boreano (Potenza), che esemplifica la centralità della segregazione e del caporalato nella gestione dei lavoratori migranti, e quello di Nardò (Lecce), dove nell’agosto 2011 uno sciopero ha coinvolto alcune centinaia di braccianti africani. L’analisi si basa su materiali raccolti durante ricerche qualitative – in particolare interviste in profondità e momenti di osservazione dei contesti di abitazione, lavoro e lotta dei braccianti stranieri – condotte tra il 2010 e il 2012 nelle due aree
Caporalato Capitalism: Labour Brokerage and Agrarian Change in a Mediterranean Society
No full textThis article discusses the persistence of illegal labour mediation in Italian industrialized agricultural production despite a decade of legal and policy reforms. Focusing on the regions of Puglia and Basilicata during the so-called Mediterranean ‘refugee crisis’ (2011-2018), it analyses such mediation as a central infrastructure of contemporary capitalist agri-food supply chains, which both capitalizes on the value of labour reproduction, and contributes to adversely incorporating migrant workers into local agricultural labour markets in a context of increasingly globalized retail agriculture
Quando lo Statistico Sente Puzza di Bruciato
No full textThe article overviews the key ideas of robust statistics and its application in antifraud. It is addressed to the statisticians of the Italian Statistical Society, through its on-line �SISmagazine�, and to non-statisticians occasionally interested in specific topics and applications of statistics. The style of the contribution is appropriate to reach a wide non necessarily technical audience. However, the article is rigorous and contains an original citation that brings the origin of robust statistics to the ancient Greece period.JRC.G.2 - Global security and crisis managemen
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
