Mio Dio, puniscimi perché ho peccato! Rapporti illegittimi e senso di colpa negli anni dell'Impero

2017

The triad 'colonialism, guilt and consequent punishment, payable with mental or physical illness if not with death’, is frequently detectable in the literary texts that focus on the latest phase of Italian Colonialism. The interpretative approach proposed in this paper, is founded on two historical and social phenomena that characterized the second decade of the Fascist period, such as, the propaganda and the subsequent counter-propaganda, and the collaborationist relationship between Church and State that pivot, in literary imagination, in the metaphor of disease as a result of divine punishment for human sins. The examined novels – Tempo di uccidere di Ennio Flaiano (1947), Un mattino a I…

DANNO, RISARCIMENTO E RICONOSCIMENTO DELL’“ALTRO” NELLA GESTIONE DEI CONFLITTI IN OMERO

2019

Atto ingiusto, reato? Nel mondo omerico abbiamo a che fare: 1. con atasthalìai (in Omero solo al plurale), cioè con “eccessi-volontari-e-consapevoli fondati-sulla-fiducia nella-propria-forza/capacità/potere”, di cui si è responsabili (mentre non si è responsabili o si è innocenti se si obbedisce a cause materiali/umane di forza maggiore), o 2. con àte, l’offuscamento mentale che rovina se stessi e a volte gli altri e che si è avuto per propria imprudenza, mancanza di calcolo o perché gli dei puniscono di una precedente offesa fatta loro. In quest’ultimo caso, si può rimediare oppure bisogna aspettare i tempi della divinità. Nel caso di offese ad altri uomini, bisogna risarcire materialmente…

The role of guilt in the willingness to pay : application to purchase for the child and to purchase organic food products

2011

Guilt in marketing is a concept which is mostly analysed by anglo-saxon researchers. French research on this topic is limited. This concept has always been analysed as a persuasion tool or after a purchase. The guilt that could explain a consumer’s purchase doesn’t seem to have been analysed much. The purpose of this thesis deals with the following topic : the role of guilt in the consumer behaviour. We have particulary wondered whether guilt stimulation could increase the willingness to pay.

The New Moral Power of Minorities

2018

The model of three interrelated social entities proposed by Gabriel Mugny to account for the role of active minorities in social innovation and change retains all its relevance and heuristic value (cf. Mugny, 1982). However, the fight of the civil rights movements of the ’60s transformed the moral perspective from which the majority regards their own behaviors towards social minorities. This resulted in an immorality judgment of discriminatory attitudes and behaviors that had long been regarded as natural. Thus a change has been effected on the relationships between majority and minority groups, providing minorities with a new moral power. As a result of such a new moral representation of p…

The Mediator Role of Feelings of Guilt in the Process of Burnout and Psychosomatic Disorders: A Cross-Cultural Study

2021

Burnout was recently declared by WHO as an “occupational phenomenon” in the International Classification of Diseases 11th revision (ICD-11), recognizing burnout as a serious health issue. Earlier studies have shown that feelings of guilt appear to be involved in the burnout process. However, the exact nature of the relationships among burnout, guilt and psychosomatic disorders remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediator role of feelings of guilt in the relationship between burnout and psychosomatic disorders, and perform a cross-cultural validation of the multi-dimensional model by Gil-Monte in two samples of teachers (Portuguese vs. Spanish). The study sample…

The Role of Anticipated Guilt and its Neutralisation in Explaining Responsible Online Shopping

2023

Although responsible consumption has been the target of growing interest in academic research, the antecedents of responsible online shopping remain poorly understood. In this study, we address this gap in prior research by focusing on the role of anticipated guilt in explaining responsible online shopping. By using data from 479 Finnish consumers, we aim to answer two research questions: (1) how strong an antecedent of responsible online shopping intention is anticipated guilt in relation to other potential antecedents and (2) how efficiently can consumers regulate their resulting feelings of guilt by using different kinds of neutralisation techniques? We find anticipated guilt to be a str…
