Il divenire della disciplina urbanistica: il contributo di Giovanna Fossa
No full textWith this volume - Conversations with TeMA - the Journal opens a new editorial line specifically dedicated to promoting and disseminating the discussion between worldwide researchers on specific issues concerning the contents, methods and timing of our work.
This first experience is dedicated to a deepening, in an interview formula, on the future of spatial planning in Italy both from a regulatory and technical-disciplinary perspective, also concerning what is happening in other countries. In line with the aims we had set, we decided to involve, in this first phase, both colleagues working in Italian universities and those working in foreign universities and research centres.

No full textEtica dei veicoli autonomi
No full textIn questo capitolo si offre un’ampia visione dell’etica dell’IA e della robotica attraverso l’analisi dei veicoli a guida autonoma (VA), passando in rassegna le principali problematiche morali e introducendo gli strumenti di etica normativa che possono aiutarci nella loro analisi. Cominceremo dalla questione delle collisioni inevitabili, che permette di familiarizzare con le prospettive dell’etica delle conseguenze e dei doveri. Tratteremo delle difficoltà relative alla distribuzione della responsabilità e del controllo, per passare poi a problemi legati alla libertà di guidare, alla privacy e alla sostenibilità ambientale. Il capitolo si conclude con un’analisi di varie politiche etiche sulla guida autonoma, esito regolativo delle indagini morali
Vision, Image and Symbol
Full text linkDuring the Fifties and the Early Sixties Hans Jonas developed a theory of man based on a series of concepts as separation of form from matter, image and symbol. By reflecting on these themes, Jonas seems to refer to the aesthetic abilities man embodies as the essence of human life. In this article I try to analyse Jonas’ thoughts on man and to determine to what extent it is possible to consider his theory as an aesthetic anthropology. Eventually, I discuss what Aesthetics may win by directing its attention to this author.</p

Etica funzionale. Considerazioni filosofiche sulla teoria dell’agire morale artificiale
Full text linkThe purpose of Machine Ethics is to develop autonomous technologies that are able to manage not just the technical aspects of a tasks, but also the ethical ones. As a consequence, the notion of Artificial Moral Agent (AMA) has become a fundamental element of the discussion. Its meaning, however, remains rather unclear. Depending on the author or the context, the same expression stands for essentially different concepts. This casts a suspicious light on the philosophical significance of Machine Ethics. In particular, the risk arises of discarding Machine Ethics as a whole on the basis of accusations that, however, apply exclusively to one specific understanding of what AMAs are – but not to other, more adequate and convincing conceptualisations. To avoid this pitfall, this essay tries to elaborate a philosophically sound interpretation of AMAs and to sketch its primary component, i.e., the notion of functional ethics
The anatomy of interatrial communications - what does the interventionist need to know?
No full textIncreasingly, the interventional cardiologist is seeking to close interatrial communications by inserting devices by means of catheterisation. So as to optimise these procedures, it is adavantageous to have a firm grasp of the anatomy of the normal atrial septal structures, this then providing the basis to understand the morphology of the holes which can exist between the chambers, not all of which are true septal defects.A true septal structure can be removed without exiting from the cavities of the heart. It is the flap valve of the oval fossa, along with the anterior rim of the fossa, which fulfill this criterion. The remainder of the extensive rim of the normal fossa is no more than an infolding between the walls of the right and left atriums and their venous tributaries, and has different dimensions at various points around the ircumference. The so-called muscular atrioventricular “septum” is a sandwich incorporating a layer of epicardial fibro-adipose tissue. True defects of the atrial septum, therefore, exist because of deficiency, perforation, or absence of the flap valve. Most of these defects will prove suitable for interventional closure, but potential caveats include multiple defects, aneurysm of the flap valve, or adjacency of the fossa to the venous orifices. The other interatrial communications, namely the sinus venosus, coronary sinus, and “ostium primum” defects are outside the confines of the oval fossa. Recognition of this feature is the key to their diagnosis, and their ifferentiation from true atrial septal defects. Of these defects, only the coronary sinus defect is likely to be suitable for device closure, and then only in the very rare circumstances when it is seen in isolatio
