Proscribing the Nordic Resistance Movement in Finland: Analyzing the Process and its Outcome
2021
The Nordic Resistance Movement (NRM) was banned in Finland in 2020 after a court process lasting more than two and half years. This article details how effective the ban has been and how the organization has adapted to the ban, both during the process and after the verdict. The NRM has followed strategies similar to previous proscription cases, especially National Action in the UK in 2016, with whom NRM members discussed and shared experiences before the banning process began. Adaptation has meant new organizational forms and the founding of new associations. Before the ban, some commentators argued that it would only radicalize NRM members and that they might move to clandestine actions. B…

La Persona nel Comunitararismo di Adriano Olivetti
2020
This paper introduces to the idea of person that Adriano Olivetti placed at the center of his community project in post-World War II Italy. The central hypothesis is that the original olivettian personalism did not originate from his contact with the philosophers of the magazine "Esprit", but from the experiences lived by Olivetti in his factory that he transformed into an educational community, a place of flowering of person and a laboratory of democratic education. His political project of a community democracy had a religious foundation and was meant to promote the person. To fulfill this mission, Olivetti made his factory a school of human and professional education where the work was r…
Gerd Callesen, Socialist Internationals: A Bibliography of Publications of the Social-Democratic and Socialist Internationals, 1914–2000. Bonn and Ge…
2004
This is a very useful bibliographical tool produced by the efforts of the International Association of Labour History Institutions (IALHI). This association comprises more than one hundred archives, libraries and research centers all over the world, though the vast majority are located in Europe, and not all of them have the same importance, reflecting the geographical and political unevenness of socialism's history. This particular volume aims to list all the publications of the social-democratic internationals after 1914, i.e. from the time of the political split due to the support for World War I by most social-democratic parties. This means that the left-wing, beginning with the Kientha…
A Discussion on the Future of Democracy with Pierre Rosanvallon
2017
Rosanvallon is amongst the many that legitimately moves criticisms against the transformations which have affected democratic western societies in recent decades. His analyses are broad on a historical-descriptive level as much as on a suggestive one, therefore this contribution of mine will focus on some theoretical key aspects which are inspired by his latest publication, but also, when required, contextualising the latter on the trail of his previous works.
Pedagogia di comunità e pedagogie della liberazione
2014
Il tema trattato nel presente articolo riguarda il confronto tra la pedagogia di comunità e le pedagogie della liberazione, due approcci che sono accomunati dal desiderio di promuovere il risveglio collettivo di una nuova coscienza sociale e politica. Le due prospettive pedagogiche riaffermano entrambe i diritti di tutti gli esseri umani, anche degli esclusi, a divenire soggetti politici in grado di trasformare la società in direzione autenticamente democratica. Grazie alla lezione di grandi maestri come John Dewey, Paulo Freire e Aldo Capitini, la prassi educativa vissuta nei contesti comunitari genera la corresponsabilità democratica di tutti; la cura del bene comune e il rispetto non vio…
Democracy at the end of the History
2013
This article analyzes the loss of legitimacy that the economic crisis brought upon representative democracy and the consequences that can be drawn for the thesis of the end of History. The thesis we defend here is that the deterioration of the welfare state, as a result, under very specific conditions, of the capitalism in certain parts of the world, runs parallel with the delegative degradation of democracy.
Marcos mentales: ¿marcos morales? Deliberación pública y democracia en la neuropolítica
2018
En este trabajo trato de abordar el concepto de «marco mental» como clave para entender la concepción que la neuropolítica tiene de la deliberación pública y la democracia. En un primer lugar expondré los puntos centrales de las teorías de Jonathan Haidt y George Lakoff sobre el marco mental y la deliberación pública. Después pondré en relación la idea del marco mental con el concepto de «marco referencial» de Taylor. Finalmente, analizaré críticamente el modelo de deliberación pública y de democracia que cabe extraer del concepto de marco mental en la neuropolítica.
La Acción colectiva: Todo poder viene de abajo
2011
RESUMEN. Con este trabajo queremos reflexionar sobre el poder de la acción colectiva en relación con las transformaciones políticas. Para ello, nos hemos centrado en la noción de intencionalidad colectiva del filósofo John Searle y algunos otros autores que han analizado la capacidad de regeneración democrática que surge de las reivindicaciones de los ciudadanos. De nuevo se constata que no existe alternativa a la legitimidad del poder político si no se la otorgan los pueblos. ABSTRACT. In this paper we reflect on the power of collective action in relation to political transformations. To do this, we have focused on the notion of collective intentionality of the philosopher John Searle and…
Da Toniolo a Sturzo : scenario storico e progetto politico dei cattolici in Italia
2020
Le biografie intellettuali di Giuseppe Toniolo e Luigi Sturzo, arricchite dal loro considerevole patrimonio di opere d’ingegno e d’azione, raccontano in prima persona la storia del movimento cattolico italiano, descrivendone e preparandone dall’interno i cambiamenti che esso vive e attraversa durante alcuni decisivi passaggi intercorsi tra l’Ottocento e il Novecento. Di questo percorso storico, infatti, l’uno e l’altro sono a pieno titolo protagonisti e vi agiscono elaborando idee e visioni, i cui effetti si colgono distintamente nelle organizzazioni sociali e politiche da loro concepite e fondate. Le Settimane sociali e il Partito popolare italiano restano nel tempo come i punti cardinali …
