Catastrofi naturali e assicurazione
Il contributo affronta il tema delle catastrofi naturali in chiave giuridica, in particolare di diritto privato, riflettendo su come favorire la prevenzione dei danni. In questa prospettiva, viene preso in esame specialmente il contratto di assicurazione. Se è infatti vero che l’assicurazione contro i danni ha come scopo fondamentale la riparazione, il saggio mette peraltro in evidenza che, rispetto alle perdite causate da disastri naturali, specialmente dal dissesto idrogeologico, l’assicurazione può anche avere una funzione preventiva o almeno potrebbe essere uno strumento che sollecita l’assicurato ad assumere misure di limitazione del danno.The essay addresses the topic of natural disasters from the perspective of private law. The author focuses on the insurance contract. Insurance against damage has as fundamental purpose compensation of losses; nevertheless, with regard to losses caused by natural disasters, and in particular by hydrogeological instability, insurance can also have a preventive function or at least can induce to take measures in order to limit losses
Educazione alla cittadinanza globale e Educazione civica: un connubio possibile?
In un contesto globale sempre più interconnesso e complesso, la riflessione sul
concetto di cittadinanza richiede di superare le tradizionali categorie legate allo Stato-nazione per abbracciare una prospettiva globale. L’Educazione alla Cittadinanza Globale (ECG), promossa dall’UNESCO, si configura come un paradigma educativo che mira a sviluppare competenze, valori e atteggiamenti necessari per affrontare le sfide del mondo contemporaneo, favorendo una cittadinanza consapevole, critica e attiva. Tuttavia, in Italia, l’introduzione dell’educazione civica obbligatoria con la Legge 92/2019 sembra riflettere una visione più ristretta della cittadinanza, ancorata alla dimensione nazionale e giuridica, senza integrare pienamente le prospettive e gli approcci della ECG. Questo contributo, basato su un’analisi tematica condotta nell’ambito del progetto PRIN 2022 Global Civic Education, esamina il grado di allineamento della normativa italiana con le politiche internazionali sulla ECG, evidenziando le principali convergenze e divergenze. Infine, vengono proposte strategie metodologiche per trasformare l’educazione civica in un punto di ingresso per la ECG, promuovendo un approccio educativo più trasversale, interdisciplinare
ed esperienziale, capace di preparare le nuove generazioni ad affrontare le sfide della globalizzazione con responsabilità e spirito critico
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Sulla buona fede contrattuale nelle fonti tardo antiche
Il contributo intende indagare il significato del costrutto bona fides nelle principali fonti giuridiche tardo antiche, con riferimento specifico al campo delle obbligazioni. L'analisi riguarda pertanto il Codice Teodosiano e le principali fonti giurisprudenziali come i Fragmenta Augustodunensia e le Pauli Sententiae, allo scopo di verificare la permanenza o l'evoluzione del concetto sottostante il costrutto indicato
Variations on the Author
“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
L’evasione fiscale come problema circolare nelle esperienze storiche: esempi della tarda antichità
This paper investigates the effects of tax fraud on the Late Antiquity’s economy, especially with regard to the use of land. It argues that we can find specific means trying to solve the problem of abandoned lands (agri deserti) in different socio-economic contexts.
This essay clarifies a certain continuity between the late roman and modern age in the legal-fiscal realm. Some empirical aspects highlight that, in their own contingency a trial (of the 339 a. D., in Fayum, in which the fiscally burdened subjects in relationship to the ownership of some fields were verified), determined, in IV century, some relevant legal changes, such as the introduction of a defensive trial mean that allowed to impose the possession of lands and the relative fiscal burdens, known as praescriptio longissimi temporis in present-day legal literature. In this context, I compare the constantly repeating models of social behaviour with some recurrent economic and fiscal problems: excessive taxation, tax evasion and attempts to fight. Analysing these late ancient phenomena, studied by the doctrine under different profiles, I argue that they may represent the persistence of answers to historically recurring problems.
