Conflicting conceptualisations of ‘democracy’ in the German Bundestag during the anti-nuclear demonstrations, 1995-2001
2018
A vigorous anti-nuclear movement emerged in Germany in the mid 1990s, when spent nuclear fuel elements began to be transported to the interim storage facility in Gorleben, Lower Saxony. Resistance to nuclear transportation continued to grow in strength throughout the 1990s. The protests expressed people’s distrust and lack of confidence in political institutions and decision-making processes. In the German Bundestag, these events relating to Gorleben caused significant political struggles over the principles and meanings of German democracy. Parliamentarians voiced competing counterarguments about the legitimacy of these demonstrations, on the one hand, and the legitimacy of the nuclear ene…

From the 2007 subprime crisis to the recent Eurozone debt crisis,the banking industry has experienced terrible financial instabilitywith increasing volatility levels of bank default probability.

Theglobal financial crisis that originated outside Eu…

TRADE-OFF THEORY VS. PECKING ORDER THEORY – EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM THE BALTIC COUNTRIES
2014
Capital structure is of particular importance in estimating the company value; an accurately estimated and selected equity and debt ratio can maximize the company value and minimizes the cost of capital; therefore, this issue is especially significant in the changing conditions of economic development. The main purpose of this study is to simultaneously evaluate the pecking order and trade-off theories of capital structure and determine which one performs better for a sample of companies from the Baltic states. Analysis is conducted on a sample of 75 listed companies (Baltic Stock Exchange) over the period from 1998 to 2011. The authors test theories using panel data and regression analysis…
Capitale sociale e legalità debole
2008
In sociologia, in economia e in scienza politica l’utilizzo del concetto di capitale sociale è ormai frequentissimo, e spesso con significati diversi, parzialmente sovrapposti o discordanti. Dopo una rapidissima rassegna degli autori più influenti, vengono indicati, riallacciandosmi alla teoria dei beni pubblici e dei beni collettivi riconducibile a Samuelson e a Olson, due distinti significati di “capitale sociale”, che designano in effetti fenomeni tra loro diversi, dalla conseguenze talora opposte: capitale sociale come bene pubblico e capitale sociale come bene particolaristico. Nel paragrafo successivo si evidenzia come alcune entità sociali certamente rilevanti dal punto di vista del …

Accounting meets economics: towards an ‘accounting view’ of money.
2018
Questo studio pone le fondamenta dell’ “Approccio Contabile” (“Accounting View”) alla moneta. Sulla base dei principi di Ragioneria Generale riconosciuti internazionalmente, lo studio argomenta che le monete emesse dallo stato e dalla banca centrale non costituiscono debito e che nei regimi di riserva frazionaria soltanto una quota della moneta emessa dalle banche commerciali pu essere considerata quale debito. Lo studio chiarisce come il signoraggio associato all’emissione di queste monete debba essere contabilizzato nei bilanci delle istituzioni emittenti ed esamina le implicazioni di ci`o per la corretta comprensione della moneta. Il nuovo approccio fa luce su argomenti quali la vera nat…
Tertiary cytoreduction in the setting of recurrent ovarian cancer (Review)
2013
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy, with aggressive surgical debulking and adjuvant chemotherapy as the main treatment modalities. Optimal debulking during the primary surgery is significantly correlated with prolonged survival. As surgical techniques and chemotherapeutic agents improve, more patients with prolonged survival may face secondary and tertiary recurrences. The role of surgical debulking in secondary cytoreduction (SC) is not clearly defined and is based on retrospective series. The treatment of patients with primary or secondary recurrences generally consists of second-line chemotherapy, but may be performed on medically fit patients in certain circumsta…
