Environmental quality and liveability; Towards a conceptual framework and demarcation of concepts
No full textHet RIVM heeft in samenwerking met RIGO Research en Advies BV (Amsterdam) een uitgebreid literatuuronderzoek verricht (Leidelmeijer, van Kamp, 2002) met als doel de verschillende concepten met betrekking tot leefomgevingskwaliteit en de relaties hiertussen te identificeren en te beschrijven tegen hun theoretische achtergrond. Dit rapport vat de uitkomsten van deze literatuurstudie samen. De ontwikkeling van de centrale concepten wordt geplaatst tegen het bredere kader van maatschappelijke ontwikkeling. Een overzicht wordt gegeven van de belangrijkste (typen van) concepten van leefbaarheid, omgevingskwaliteit, kwaliteit van leven en duurzaamheid en presenteert voorbeelden van onderliggende conceptuele modellen. De verschillende noties en concepten worden vergeleken op de dimensies van domein, indicator, schaal-niveau, tijdpad en context, zoals beschreven door Pacione. Geconcludeerd wordt dat voor de vooruitgang op dit terrein een begrippen kader met betrekking tot omgevingskwaliteit en kwaliteit van leven, dat het niveau van de verschillende disciplines overstijgt, noodzakelijk is. Voor de ondersteuning van de beleidsbehoeften en beleidsdoelen van het NMP4 en het MILO project is een aantal onderzoeksrichtingen geidentificeerd.The National Institute of Public Health and the Environment in the Netherlands (RIVM) and RIGO Research and Consultancy BV (Amsterdam) performed a major literature review to identify various concepts in the literature concerning environmental quality, the relationships between these various concepts, as well as their respective theoretical bases. This report summarises the outcomes of this survey. First the history of concepts related to environmental quality is sketched from different perspectives such as city-planning, architecture, sociology, economics, well-being and health over the past 150 years. The development of these concepts is placed in a broader framework of societal development. It reviews the main (types of) concepts of livability, environmental quality, quality of life and sustainability, and presents examples of underlying conceptual models. Different notions and concepts are compared along the dimensions of domain, indicator, scale, time-frame and context as described by Pacione. It is concluded that a multidisciplinary conceptual framework of environmental quality and quality of life that will go beyond the disciplinary differences found in the current literature is needed if the field is to advance. In order to support the policy-making needs and goals of the Dutch Ministerial projects NMP4 and MILO some directions for future research are identified.VROM-DGM-LM

Evolutionary patterns and phylogeny of the Carnian-Norian conodonts from the Pizzo Mondello section, GSSP candidate for the base of the Norian
No full textThe taxonomy and phylomorphogenesis of conodont pectiniform elements around the Carnian/Norian boundary is rather problematic for the apparent provincialism that affects many conodont species (Kozur, 2003; Mazza & Rigo, 2008a) and for the large number of morphotypes and transitional forms occurring during this stratigraphical interval. The mass presence of transitional forms among conodont species is explained by the rapid recovery and evolution of conodonts after the Carnian crisis (Julian/Tuvalian boundary), related to the Carnian Pluvial Event (Rigo et al, 2007).
In order to resolve the problems concerning evolutionary patterns and processes of the Upper Triassic conodonts, we conducted a detailed taxonomic study of the species belonging to the five most widespread genera (Paragondolella, Carnepigondolella, Metapolygnathus, Epigondolella, and Norigondolella) from the Pizzo Mondello section (Sicani Mountains, Western Sicily, Italy), candidate section as GSSP for the Carnian/Norian boundary (Nicora et al., 2007; Balini et al., 2008). The section is a 430 m thick continuous succession of marine limestones ranging from Late Carnian to Rhaetian in age (Nicora et al., 2007), characterized by almost uniform facies and a very rich conodont fauna. Taxonomic studies on conodont populations allowed us recognizing some discriminating morphological features for the separation of genera (the position of the pit, with respect both to the platform and to the keel end, the occurrence of nodes and/or denticles on the platform margins, the length of the platform and the shape of the keel end; see Mazza & Rigo, 2008b) and many other for the classification of species. Also morphometries have been applied to the measurable features (pit position with respect to the platform and to the keel end, platform length, keel width and free blade length) to obtain more precise and objective data for the analyses. The changes in the conodont platform morphology observed through the section, provided the following trends in the evolution of the pectiniform elements: a) the forward-shifting of the pit, b) the shortening of the platform and c) the appearance of nodes on the platform margins and the development of nodes into denticles (see Mazza & Rigo, 2008 and references therein). Species belonging to the five main Late Carnian-Early Norian genera have been thus assigned to two separate monophyletic lineages: i) the Paragondolella-Metapolygnathus-Norigondolella lineage and ii) the Carnepigondolella-Epigondolella lineage.
Nevertheless, the phylogenetic relationships of some species remained still problematic. In order to solve these problems, a numerical cladistic analysis have been applied to the studied species. The morphological characters used to classify conodont species have been thus codified to generate numerical matrices to be analyzed by a program (PAUP, Swofford, 2002) for phylogenetic analysis under the parsimony criteria.
The produced cladograms evidenced morphological relationships among genera and species, showing that the evolutionary trends listened above are supported by the most parsimoniuos character states distribution among taxa and confirming the importance of the considered characters for the conodont taxonomy. Furthermore, the consensus tree from the set of cladograms generated, allowed assigning some species to well identified sister groups, which coincides in this case with the conodont genera, and better defining the still uncertain systematic positions of some problematic species

No full textFocusing on a key year in the last age of Byzantium – 1347, when the civil war that had ravaged the Empire for four years, accompanied by religious dissent and social unrest, finally ended – the book of Antonio Rigo offers an overall reconstruction of the ecclesiastical events and dynamics between the different groups involved, while also presenting a critical edition of two documents from the summer of 1347: the Tome of the opponents and that of the deposition of Matthew of Ephesus, followed by other minor pieces.Focusing on a key year in the last age of Byzantium – 1347, when the civil war that had ravaged the Empire for four years, accompanied by religious dissent and social unrest, finally ended – the book of Antonio Rigo offers an overall reconstruction of the ecclesiastical events and dynamics between the different groups involved, while also presenting a critical edition of two documents from the summer of 1347: the Tome of the opponents and that of the deposition of Matthew of Ephesus, followed by other minor pieces
Per una ragione artificiale. In dialogo con Lorenzo d'Avack su Costituzione, ordine giuridico e biodiritto
No full textLa ricchezza dei saggi e delle testimonianze raccolte in questo volume documenta il contributo fondamentale che l’opera di Lorenzo d’Avack ha apportato agli studi sui temi della Costituzione, della bioetica e del biodiritto. Partecipano alla raccolta di scritti molte delle voci che si sono confrontate con d’Avack durante la sua lunga, e tuttora in corso, esperienza al Comitato Nazionale per la Bioetica. Non solo filosofi del diritto, giuristi provenienti da diverse discipline, bioeticisti e umanisti con diverse sensibilità, ma anche medici, clinici e esperti di neuroscienze. Il volume offre, pertanto, un compendio dei temi e dei problemi che la bioetica e il biodiritto hanno affrontato negli ultimi decenni in una prospettiva interdisciplinare. Apre il volume un’intervista a Lorenzo d’Avack, seguita dalle testimonianze e dai saggi di Riccardo Di Segni, Mariapia Garavaglia, Salvatore Amato, Monica Toraldo, Laura Palazzani, Alfredo D’Attore, Lucetta Scaraffia, Luisella Battaglia, Mariella Gensabella Furnari, Maurizio Mori, Stefano Canestrari, Antonio Da Re, Assunta Morresi, Alessandro Nanni Costa, Stefano Semplici, Carlo Caltagirone, Silvio Garattini, Lucio Romano, Mario De Curtis, Gianpaolo Donzelli, Grazia Zuffa, Carlo Casonato, Carlo Maria Petrini e Carlo Botrugno.The richness of this edited collection reflects the depth of Lorenzo d’Avack’s contribution to constitutional studies, bioethics and biolaw. Many of the authors of this volume have been in close dialogue with d’Avack during his long and ongoing involvement with the Italian National Committee for Bioethics. The volume includes essays by legal philosophers, scholars of law and bioethics as well as doctors, physicians and neuroscience experts. As such, the edited collection offers an interdisciplinary perspective on key themes and problems that have concerned bioethics and biolaw over recent decades.

Europa di confine. Trasformazioni della cittadinanza nell'Unione allargata
No full textChe ne è della cittadinanza nel mondo contemporaneo? Attorno a questa domanda si sono sviluppati dibattiti di grande interesse negli ultimi anni. Lo spazio europeo, in particolare, è stato spesso indicato come il laboratorio di inedite sperimentazioni postnazionali. Questo libro ci offre un originale cambiamento di prospettiva: accanto alla ricostruzione delle realizzazioni istituzionali della nuova cittadinanza europea, Enrica Rigo propone di considerare quest’ultima a partire dai suoi confini. Analizzando le dottrine giuridiche classiche sull’appartenenza a un territorio, ma anche dialogando con gli sviluppi più innovativi dei dibattiti internazionali sul tema, l’autrice legge le trasformazioni dei confini europei come indice di un più generale mutamento del rapporto tra diritto, politica e spazio. Considerata sotto il duplice angolo prospettico dell’allargamento a est e delle sfide portate dai movimenti migratori, la cittadinanza europea emerge così come un concetto contestato e come un terreno attorno a cui si giocano alcune delle partite decisive per il nostro futuro
