No full textIn Search of a Good Life in and out of Switzerland: Making Use of Migration in Old Age
No full textMany Swiss households, dealing with care needs facing themselves in old age or older relatives, hire female migrant live-in care workers from Eastern European countries. At the same time, Swiss people are migrating to Southern European countries after their retirement, as a means of improving their socioeconomic security. Similar practices have been discussed in the Swiss and international literature. Some researchers have documented the global care market, its gendered dimension, and the precarious conditions in which these migrants — mainly women — work in the richer country. Literature about retirement migration sometimes indicates that such movement is motivated by the search for a better lifestyle or more economic security, something that reflects the economic privileges of the retirees from richer countries vis-à-vis populations of countries with cheaper costs of living. This chapter demonstrates how these two practices (relocating and hiring a migrant) are linked to a specific configuration of the welfare and care regime in Switzerland: one in which people’s well-being in old age mostly depends on their private resources, such as household income and social networks, and where public transfers are secondary. It also discusses how the use of migration in later life is shaped by global inequalities between countries and is stimulated by an expanding transnational market for care, housing and leisure services targeting ageing customers from richer countries

Ermetismo e politica nell'Institution du jeune prince di Jean D'Espagnet (1616)
No full textThe essay focuses on the figure of Jean D’Espagnet (1564-ca.1638), President of the Bordeaux Parliament, through the analysis of his Institution du jeune prince published in 1616 and dedicated to the young Louis XIII. This allows us to shed a better light on D'Espagnet's thought, well known on the side of hermetic studies but much less on that of political ideas. His institutio principis turns out to be an interesting example of that peculiar connection which, between the 16th and 17th centuries, was established between civil science or political science, natural science and magical-hermetic science

No full textThe essay describes the educational activities of the Laboratorio di Public history and the Centro di Ricerca sul Gioco at the University of Genoa, focusing on the theme of the gamification of history. It discusses the validity of an educational approach based on the use of commercial historical board games and the development of a role-playing game set in the 17th century. The analog gaming market is currently experiencing significant growth, and within it, there is a growing interest from a player audience attracted to historical games. This ludic production possesses all the characteristics to be considered a full-fledged tool in the field of public history. Furthermore, it represents an interesting area of research on recent cultural trends and modes closely related to historical science
