Los «grupos financiero-industriales» en la Federación Rusa : Nuevas tendencias en el establecimiento de vínculos entre las esferas financiera y produ…
2000
El presente artículo tiene como objetivo estudiar las relaciones existentes entre las esferas financiera y productiva de la economía rusa. Para ello se analiza, en primer lugar, los aspectos legislativos de la formación de los grupos financiero-industriales, describiéndose los requisitos y las restricciones básicas para la formación de estos grupos. En segundo lugar, se revisa la distinta evolución desarrollada por los grupos financieroindustriales cuantificando el fenómeno, por un lado, así como su ubicación en el espacio ruso, por otro. En tercer lugar, se elabora una caracterización de los grupos financieros, enumerando los principales criterios de integración que se han detectado para l…
El cuerpo materno en la red: entre el orden de lo ?deseable? y el de lo real
2019
El estilo de vida fitness se realiza en, y a través de, un entramado subjetivo y de poder en el que circulan y se ensamblan dispositivos empresariales, terapéuticos, sanitarios y de espectacularización de los cuerpos, tendientes a inscribir la vida de la población en las tramas conflictivas de un capitalismo heterosexista, neoliberal e informacional. En dicho marco, la temporalidad, metamorfosis y plasticidad del cuerpo materno irrumpe como problema y objeto de intervención de tecnologías diversas orientadas a ajustar su tamaño, forma y devenir a los parámetros de la vida activa y saludable. En escenarios digitales, dicha tensión se materializa, por un lado, a través de dispositivos visuale…
O cechach życia w nowym kapitalizmie. Richard Sennett i inspiracja dla antropologii neoliberalizmu
2016
Obowiązujące stosunki ekonomiczne zawsze związane są ze specyficznymi praktykami kulturowymi. Te praktyki kulturowe dostarczają ram dla doświadczania status quo. Współczesny neoliberalizm wydaje się formą kapitalizmu szczególnie przywiązaną właśnie do praktyk kulturowych, w istocie ideologicznych, które skrywają rozmaite relacje władzy, przymus i strukturalne zależności, także te ekonomiczne. Pozostają przy tym trudno uchwytne. Richard Sennett tak nacechowany współczesny kapitalizm nazywa nowym kapitalizmem. Jego analiza zmian instytucjonalnych, ale i osobistych, społecznych kosztów dostarcza krytycznych opisów, które mogą być inspiracją dla antropologii neoliberalizmu. Ta zaś jawi się jako…
Individualizzazione, (neo)liberismo e disagio socio-familiare
2019
L’intento di questo saggio è quello di proporre una riflessione critica sui modi in cui è rappresentato il disagio sociale – anche da parte di uomini e donne nelle loro rappresentazioni di sé – nella società contemporanea, criticandone la supremazia quale risultato del processo della cosiddetta individualizzazione della società e mostrandone i nessi, particolarmente complicati, con il (neo)liberismo – che ha tra i suoi principi e valori cardine la sovranità dell’individuo – per delineare infine alcune delle conseguenze che esso ha sulle strutture socio-familiari della contemporaneità. The intent of this essay is to propose a critical reflection on the ways in which social unease is represen…

Experiences of arbitrary management among Finnish academics in an era of academic capitalism
2020
For the last two decades, Finnish universities have faced the implementation of new systems of control and undergone dramatic changes that have worsened academic working conditions–such as corporatisation and budget cuts. This article explores Finnish academics’ experiences of university reforms with a special focus on the consequences it has had in terms of organisational socio-dynamics. We adapt Glynos and Howarth’s logics of critical explanation and apply this theoretical framework to analyse the interviews of academics who, against their own will, did not have their contracts renewed. This approach describes, explains, and criticises the logics–which are social, political and fantasmati…
Amazon's initiative transforming a non-contact society : Digital disruption leads the way to stakeholder capitalization
2021
Contrary to the decisive role of R&D centered on information and communication technology (ICT) in the digital economy, its excessive expansion has resulted in declining productivity due to the two-faced nature of ICT. Consequently, the novel concept emerges of innovation that maintains sustainable growth by harnessing the vigor of soft innovation resources (SIRs). Pioneering endeavors can be observed at the forefront of the global ICT leaders. World R&D leader Amazon has been harnessing the power of users that seek SIRs. This functions as a virtuous cycle, leading to the transformation of R&D by fusing a unique R&D system with a sophisticated financing system. With this orchestration, Amaz…
Unrooting inequality from development : recognition and justification of inequality in global development
2017
How does the tension resolve between a moral order with egalitarian imperatives, such as sustainable and inclusive human development, and a global political economy based on a market system that prioritizes meeting the wants and needs of those with purchasing power? By developing a comprehensive theoretical framework as analytical contribution, I propose to rethink a practice-intensive field (Development and International Cooperation) and analyze the texts that represent the dominant discourse in development policies: the UNDP Human Development Reports and the World Bank’s World Development Reports. These influential institutions have shaped the rise of neoliberalism as a hegemonic developm…
Migranti e ossessione securitaria. Il razzismo e la destra in Europa
2020
In this contribution, Pirrone observes and explains how the obsession with security is the result of great manipulation by the dominant forces and how racism becomes the ideology useful for legitimizing, for the purposes of economic exploitation, the practices of underseating migrants. The world capitalist liberalism - argues the author - represents migrants as the enemies of the way of life and well-being of rich countries and building an imaginary imaginary inspired by the idea of a threatening "invasion", agreeing on the one hand to hide the defeat induced by neoliberal domination and, on the other, to regulate and collectiveize the native and foreign workforce. In particular attention t…
La tetra notte della ragione. L'ossessione della sicurezza, l'onda lunga del razzismo e il riemergere del nazifascismo in Europa
2018
La criminalizzazione delle migrazioni, oltre a rivelarsi funzionale al mantenimento della disuguaglianza giuridica, politica e sociale degli immigrati, precondizione per il controllo e lo sfruttamento della mobilità umana straniera in modo coerente per gli attuali assetti dell’economia capitalistica, è anche una modalità per distogliere l’attenzione dell’opinione pubblica da tutti i problemi generati dal neoliberismo mondiale, e il razzismo diviene al contempo ideologia che legittima tale discriminazione e valvola di sfogo del malessere sociale ed economico indirizzato verso un nuovo capro espiatorio, come già successo in passato nella storia d’Europa. L’ossessione per la sicurezza si rivel…
