    Afterword. The New Dimension of EU Security in a Transnational Justice and Governance System

    No full text
    The title of this epilogue intends to highlight the results of the research carried out within the Jean Monnet Module ‘EU-Western Balkans Cooperation on Justice and Home Affairs’ and the ensuing insights chronicled in this book. Specifically, the findings highlight the new dimension of security in relation to protecting the EU system and its identity (‘unity in diversity’), albeit seemingly not adequately implemented at the level of EU law. Conversely, a system of justice and governance has emerged at the transnational level within the wider European area. This notion emerges from the analysis of doctrine that has long debated the exercise of public authority in the context of international institutional law, highlighting the impact of State organizations’ action in the life of international economic, social, and political relationships. However, for the purposes of this research, the exercise of public authority in the multilevel system of EU law (international, European, and national) has emphasized a model of cooperation among national public authorities that continue to operate and drive the European integration process, as well as the centralization of these cooperation activities within EU agencies

    “Because climate change is the crisis that will stay with us”: Crisis, Polycrisis, Permacrisis in the EU discursive space

    No full text
    The research in this chapter builds on previous work investigating the interplay between health and climate change in EU institutional discourse (Bevitori and Russo 2023, Russo and Bevitori 2024). Drawing on theories and methodologies of corpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis, the chapter provides an in-depth analysis of discursive framings of (poly)crisis in order to shed new light on the interrelation between climate and health in EU political communication. As emerging concepts, polycrisis and permacrisis provide interpretative lens for a deeper understanding of crisis as a rhetorical construct in the EU discursive space. Keywords: EU political communication, climate, health, polycrisis, permacrisi

    Correlational data, causal hypotheses, and validity

    No full text
    A shared problem across the sciences is to make sense of correlational data coming from observations and/or from experiments. Arguably, this means establishing when correlations are causal and when they are not. This is an old problem in philosophy. This paper, narrowing down the scope to quantitative causal analysis in social science, reformulates the problem in terms of the validity of statistical models. Two strategies to make sense of correlational data are presented: first, a ‘structural strategy’, the goal of which is to model and test causal structures that explain correlational data; second, a ‘manipulationist or interventionist strategy’, that hinges upon the notion of invariance under intervention. It is argued that while the former can offer a solution the latter cannot

    Weakly Corson compact trees

    No full text
    We introduce and study a new topology on trees, that we call the countably coarse wedge topology. Such a topology is strictly finer than the coarse wedge topology and it turns every chain complete, rooted tree into a Frechet-Urysohn, countably compact topological space. We show the role of such topology in the theory of weakly Corson and weakly Valdivia compacta. In particular, we give the first example of a compact space T whose every closed subspace is weakly Valdivia, yet T is not weakly Corson. This answers a question due to Ondrej Kalenda

    Innovation ecosystem perspectives: featuring social and material landscape of innovation.

    No full text
    This chapter aims to discuss the recent ecosystem perspectives on innovation by analysing in depth the social and technology interplay that shapes actors’ interactions for innovation. Grounded in the service ecosystem approach, the analysis provides a framework to address innovation in the new complexity of a social interconnected and technology-based context. The chapter suggested that service ecosystem conceptualisations and socio-materiality inform each other to provide a better understanding of the nature of innovation in a complex technology- based ecosystem (Lusch and Nambisan, 2015). Drawing on a dynamic view of a service ecosystem, the chapter stressed that both institutions and technologies are a driving force in shaping how actors interact and how practices are enacted to create something new and better. This representation provides new avenues for decision makers and practitioners to tackle topical challenges in cultural heritage busines
