Il ‘Paradiso perduto’ della Zona di Alienazione. Temi mitopoietici e uso degli spazi funebri nella Polesia post-Chernobyl’
No full textIn queste pagine rifletto sull’importanza della geografia ultramondana del cosiddetto "vtračenyj raj" (“paradiso perduto” in lingua ucraina) nei processi di riorganizzazione del paesaggio emozionale, culturale ed esistenziale delle popolazioni della Zona di Čornobyl'. In queste regioni colpite dalla catastrofe, la retorica del patriottismo locale rappresenta un fenomeno di notevole rilevanza etnografica. Questa narrativa non ha a che vedere con la lealtà allo stato-nazione e alle sue istituzioni. Piuttosto, essa si riferisce a un intenso e intimo senso di attaccamento e filiale devozione verso la “terra nativa” o "ridny kraj". Come intendo dimostrare in questo contributo, tale senso di attaccamento e la nozione stessa di "ridnyj kraj" si riferiscono a una geografia che è tanto mondana quanto extramondana
TUTELA DEL LAVORO E LIBERTA' D'IMPRESA NEI PROCESSI DI ESTERNALIZZAZIONE
No full textL’elaborato analizza le conseguenze lavoristiche della successione fra imprenditori, muovendo da una ricognizione delle varie tipologie di esternalizzazione con le relative esigenze e principali criticità.
L’indagine si concentra in primo luogo sul trasferimento d’azienda, esaminando la normativa e la giurisprudenza europee per passare poi alla disciplina di diritto interno, alle procedure sindacali e a uno specifico focus sul trasferimento delle aziende in crisi.
Successivamente l’autore si sofferma sull’appalto, prendendone in particolare considerazione gli indici di genuinità, i criteri di distinzione dalla somministrazione illecita di manodopera e la tutela delle maestranze in caso di avvicendamento fra imprese.
Da ultimo, la ricerca approfondisce le c.d. “clausole sociali”, sia di prima che di seconda generazione, valutandone la compatibilità con il diritto eurounitario e con la costituzione nonché riflettendo sui possibili rimedi in caso di loro violazione.The author analyzes the labour consequences of the succession between entrepreneurs, starting from a recognition of the various types of outsourcing with the related needs and main critical issues.
The survey focuses primarily on the transfer of businesses, examining European legislation and case-law and then moving on to internal legislation, trade union procedures and a specific focus on the transfer of companies in crisis.
The author then dwells on the contract, taking into account in particular the indications of authenticity, the criteria of distinction from the illicit administration of labour and the protection of workers in the event of turnover between companies.
Finally, the research deepens the "social clauses", both first and second generation, assessing their compatibility with European law and with the constitution and reflecting on possible remedies in case of their violation
I territori delle comunità d’interesse nell’era della comunicazione globale
No full textThe development of the global communication allows people to get together frequently and to exchange information and resources, even though they live far away from each other. The aim of this essay is to highlight the reason for the increasing importance of the common interest groups as far as the geographical research is concerned. Especially on the Internet, these social networks create gathering areas - virtual spaces that are territorial and, because of this, they are interesting from a geographical point of view.
It results in the opportunity of the creation of countless branches of geography, such as the geography of wine, games, coins, music, sports, cats or dogs. These kinds of geography study the localization and the links to their own territories of the communities devoted to these topics
La fortuna iconografica della favola di Psiche nel Cinquecento e il Paradiso di Scandiano
No full textL'identificazione della sala del Paradiso nella rocca dei Boiardo a Scandiano (RE) e la scoperta di una porzione della decorazione nascosta sotto uno scialbo ha permesso di ricomporne il sistema decorativo. Sulla volta era dipinto il "Banchetto degli dei" tratto dalla favola di Psiche del latino Apuleio (II sec. d.C.), parzialmente conservato, copia precisa dell'analoga scena affrescata da Raffaello e bottega nella villa di Agostino Chigi (meglio nota come Farnesina) nel 1518 circa.
Il saggio illustra i modi della ricezione della favola nella letteratura italiana fra Quattro e Cinquecento, che l'hanno resa nota e portata a essere uno dei temi più frequentati dall'arte del Rinascimento italiano poi europeo. Ricostruisce la particolare fortuna testuale e artistica del soggetto in ambito estense e in particolare presso il duca di Ferrara Ercole I d'Este, il cui interesse per Apuleio lo porta fra l'altro a fare volgarizzare l'"Asino d'oro" proprio da Matteo Maria Boiardo, avo del conte Giulio committente della sala. Una volta inserita nel contesto culturale e storico la decorazione della sala (avvenuta negli anni Quaranta del XVI secolo), ne studia il significato d'insieme, che combina il "Banchetto" con immagini di musici e paesaggi, e propone una lettura del dipinto desunto da Raffaello
Ultra Low Carbon Vehicles: New Parameters for Automotive Design
No full textAs the influence of vehicle emissions on our environment has become better understood, the UK government has recently placed urgent emphasis on the implementation of low carbon
technologies in the automotive industry through: the UK Low Carbon Industrial Strategy. The overall objective is to offer big incentives to consumers and support for the development of infrastructure and engineering solutions. This scheme however does not consider how the development of functional and experiential user value might drive consumer demand, contributing to the adoption of low carbon vehicles (LCVs) in the mass market.
With the emergence of the North East of England as the UK’s first specialised region for the development of ultra-low carbon vehicles (ULCVs), ONE North East, as a development agency for the region's economic and business development, and Northumbria University Ideas-lab have supported a project to facilitate innovation through the collaboration of technology, research and development (R&D) and business. The High Value Low Carbon (HVLC) project aims to envisage
new user value made possible by the integration of low carbon vehicle platforms with new process and network technologies. The HVLC consortium represents vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers as well as technology based companies and through an ongoing process of design concept generation the project offers a hub for innovation led enterprise.
Whilst new technological developments in areas such as power generation, nano materials, hydrogen fuel cells, printed electronics and networked communications will all impact on future automotive design, the mass adoption of low carbon technologies represents a paradigm shift for the motorist. This paper aims to describe how the mapping of new parameters will lead to new transport scenarios that will create the space for new collaborative research on user experiences supported by innovative technologies and related services

Involvement of recreational anglers in the eradication of alien brook trout from high altitude lakes
No full textStocking programmes for recreational angling are primarily responsible for the spread and ecological impact of introduced sh in high-altitude, originally shless lakes. In 2013, the Gran Paradiso National Park started an eradication campaign of brook trout by intensive gill-netting. Local anglers were invited to attend two angling sessions to start the eradication before gill-netting in an experimental lake, as part of an education action devoted to these critical stakeholders. The angling sessions turned out to be a valuable help for the eradication campaign and the aim of this study is to report on the outcomes of these angling sessions. Angling techniques were highly size-selective, removing a substantial part of the adult population and of the sh biomass, but their contribution to the eradication of small sh (<15cm) was irrelevant. Therefore, angling cannot completely eradicate age-structured populations. However, there is scope to use angling sessions as a support for eradication campaigns and as an emergency measure for recent sh introduc- tions. Similar actions should be considered whenever a sh eradication programme is planned. These ndings, however, do not imply a general endorsement for angling within protected areas
Uno sguardo all'Est. Lavoro e diritti fondamentali in Russia e negli altri Paesi della Comunità di Stati indipendenti
No full textNel contributo l'autore, dopo aver esaminato i diritti fondamentali del lavoro presenti nelle Costituzioni dei Paesi della Comunità di Stati indipendenti, si sofferma sul diritto del lavoro russo. La trattazione, a carattere diacronico, abbraccia i rami principali del diritto del lavoro: il rapporto individuale, le relazioni collettive, il mercato del lavoro. L'autore rileva una sorprendente continuità nelle linee essenziali del diritto del lavoro russo, pur nel susseguirsi di sistemi socioeconomici completamente diversi. Egli conclude che il diritto del lavoro russo appartiene saldamente alla matrice europea della materia.The contribution of the author starts by examining fundamental labour rights recognised by the Constitutions of the Countries of the Community of Independent States. Then the author focuses upon Russian Labour Law, going through the history of the main branches of the discipline: the individual relationship, industrial relations, the labour market. The article finds a surprising continuity in the essential lines of Russian Labour Law, in spite of the completely different socio-economic systems that were experimented in Russia during the twentieth century. The author concludes that Russian Labour Law clearly belongs to the European matrix of the discipline
Corpo, spazio, architettura. Fenomenologia dell’esperienza spaziale Matteo Vegetti, Fabrizia Bandi (eds.), Editrice Morcelliana, Brescia 2024
No full textThe author reviews "Corpo, spazio, architettura: Fenomenologia dell’esperienza spaziale," edited by Matteo Vegetti and Fabrizia Bandi. The book examines the philosophical underpinnings of spatial experience through a phenomenological lens, engaging with both traditional and contemporary notions of how space, body, and architecture interconnect. The author highlights the text\u27s exploration of how architects and designers might integrate phenomenological insights into their work, transforming space from mere physical dimensions into lived, experienced reality. The review appreciates the book’s thematic organization, which starts with foundational theories from Merleau-Ponty and expands through discussions on virtual spaces and the future of architecture in the digital age. Through this anthology, readers gain a comprehensive view of the architectural implications of phenomenological thought, making it a critical resource for anyone involved in the conceptualization and design of space
