Revenge and retaliation
This paper considers the role of retaliation norms as a way to induce more socially desirable behavior among self-interested parties. The paper first considers the unregulated case in which individuals indulge in mutual aggression, in the absence of other legal or social constraints. Next the relationship between aggressors and their victims is investigated, concentrating on the effect of victim\u27s propensity to retaliate when suffering harm from others. Two retaliatory regimes are examined: proportional retribution and fixed retaliation. Special attention is paid to the impact of these regimes on the parties\u27 interaction. The results suggest that human instincts for revenge may indeed be as important as honesty for the evolution of cooperation. More generally, retaliation norms are an important ingredient for the evolution of desirable social behavior in the absence of other social constraints or legal intervention

Social partenrship as public private cooperation. Thoughts from the Italian experience
Bottom-up initiatives in urban transformation and public goods management, as promoted by recent legislation in Italy, have been indicated by Dr. Eduardo Parisi of the University of Milan as distinctive examples of public-private cooperation that promotes efficiency and inclusion in governance.
The Author discussed how – even under the influence of the international debate – public private partnership is more and more often a cultural and social phenomenon, consistent with the principles of solidarity, participation and inclusion in governance.

Interactive connected smart (ICS) materials experience
Over the past decades, emerging materials have gained prominence in design practice,
driving innovation and generating added value to products and systems; they play a crucial
role in improving physical performance and enhancing product language, facilitating
novel dynamic experiences and unique expressive‐sensorial dimensions.
Indeed, the material domain is undergoing a transformative shift, characterized by hybridization,
dynamism, and interactivity, ultimately reshaping craft practices and sensorial
experiences. In this context, a new class of emerging breakthrough materials defined by the
umbrella definition of interactive connected smart (ICS) materials (Parisi et al., 2018) appears
as pivotal in redefining meaningful experiences and making practices. This category
encompasses a wide range of elements, including conductive materials, stimuli‐responsive
smart materials, embeddable sensors, actuators, and microcontrollers. As in a kind of composite
arrangement, these components can be combined with inactive material substrates
to form hybrid material systems (HMS) enabling diverse interactive and dynamic experiences
by holistically tuning their material, temporal, and form dimensions (Parisi, 2021).
In this chapter, we present and discuss the embodied experience emerging from crafting
HMS resulting from the hybridization of bioplastics and embedded lighting technology.
For this purpose, we unfold the knowledge at the core of ICS materials and
HMS. We then outline the value of the embodied experience as a result of applying a
material‐centred hands‐on approach. This approach involves do‐it‐yourself (DIY) practices,
material tinkering, and experimentation in a cross‐disciplinary team with eclectic
backgrounds from material design and crafting to interaction design and digital fabrication.
Our investigation emphasizes the central role or the expressive‐sensorial qualities
and materials experience. We then present our experimentation in tinkering with hybrid
bio‐based smart objects. Finally, we reflect on the crafting experience and discuss emerging
methods and approaches for design practitioners dealing with ICS Materials and
HMS. The emphasis lies in collaborative practices, experiential learning, and the unique
materials experience resulting from the relations between form, behaviours, material
qualities, and the researchers themselves
