Cambiamenti climatici e diritti umani. Il paradigma della Giustizia climatica e il ruolo delle climate litigations per la protezione dei diritti uman…
2021
In che misura i sempre più diffusi, pervasivi e drammatici impatti dei cambiamenti climatici, che interessano con geometrie variabili tutte le latitudini e longitudini del globo, mettono a rischio la tenuta del sistema dei diritti umani universalmente riconosciuti? La ricerca si pone l'obiettivo di rispondere a tale quesito ragionando su quali sfide essi pongano e su quali siano, nell'attuale panorama, gli strumenti giuridici utili a garantire la piena tutela dei diritti fondamentali nel nuovo contesto clima- alterato. La fondatezza e l’attendibilità delle ricerche scientifiche che avvalorano l’esistenza del cambiamento climatico antropogenico si pongono come presupposto fattuale dell'inter…
Scales of participation and multi-scalar citizenship in EU participatory governance
2020
The EU still has a democratic deficit and its legitimacy is strongly questioned. This reveals the importance of citizenship and participation in the context of the challenges the EU faces today. The article contributes to the current discussions on the shifting frameworks of participation and citizenship through empirical research into the EU’s participatory governance. It asks how participation is framed in terms of scale and how these scalar framings are used to formulate citizenship in selected projects funded by the EU programmes on citizenship and culture. This microlevel analysis yields new insights into the politics of scale in the EU’s multilevel participatory governance. Frame anal…
The need of political governance: The political sphere as main thrust and guarantor on Walzer’s theory
2014
Tomando como pretexto la teoría política de Walzer, el presente artículo pretende mostrar la necesidad de política en los tiempos y sociedades actuales. A pesar de lo depauperada y defenestrada que ésta pudiera parecer, sigue siendo necesario articular su papel en nuestras sociedades y mostrar su rol clave para librarnos de problemas tan omnipresentes como puede ser la corrupción en nuestros días. Para ello trataremos de indagar en cuál es el papel de la política y cómo es su relación con la sociedad civil y otras esferas de actuación, poniendo en valor su necesidad. Using as a pretext Walzer’s political theory, this article aims to show the need for politics in our times and contemporary s…
L'abolitionnisme de Victor Schoelcher, un humanisme mâtiné de colonialisme et de moralisme
1999
Although this title might be somewhat provocative, there is no intent to be anti-schoelcherist. The aim is not to diminish Victor Schoelcher's considerable achievements, but to fight against the unanimous preconceptions that have transformed this man into a myth. By studying the legal and political consequences of his proposals and his engagements, we have underlined not only the extent and complexity of his work for the Republic - that has been little known up to now, though Schoelcher ought to be considered to be one of the fathers of the Republic - but his contradictions too. Schoelcher was so sure of the virtues of the republican values of the mother country, that his fight, albeit huma…
Watersport and juvenile criminal justice: social projects for individual and community well-being
2023
Background:Intervention projects in social and psychological fields envisage actions aimed at creating a network not only among institutions and informal support but also an opportunity for the promotion of well-being, individuals and communities. Methods:This project was based on an active and individual-centered approach that involved in 2020, 6 young people from the Palermo Juvenile Prison, involving their awareness and participation in planned activities that involved the use of a water sport (snorkeling) to offer them an opportunity for change. Results:The adoption of watersport has been a successful methodology, as they are based on sharing standards, individual responsibility and mut…
‘Human rights and democracy are not self-evident’ : Finnish student teachers’ perceptions on democracy and human rights education
2021
This article discusses democracy and human rights education (DHRE) in Finnish teacher education, drawing on existing literature, curricula and a survey of student teachers’ perceptions. Earlier studies suggested that DHRE in Finnish teacher education is unsystematic, implicit, and dependent on the teacher’s individual interests. These studies highlight a sense of national exceptionalism, where DHRE is assumed to be self-evident. In 2019, we conducted a survey of student teachers (n=300) in one university. Data content analysis reveals that student teachers now see DHRE as relevant and timely, and by no means self-evident. Student teachers believe that DHRE needs to be explicit and part of t…
Stoïlow’s theorem revisited
2020
Stoilow's theorem from 1928 states that a continuous, open, and light map between surfaces is a discrete map with a discrete branch set. This result implies that such maps between orientable surfaces are locally modeled by power maps z -> z(k) and admit a holomorphic factorization. The purpose of this expository article is to give a proof of this classical theorem having readers in mind that are interested in continuous, open and discrete maps. (C) 2019 Elsevier GmbH.

Desigualdad económica y bienestar: tres modelos de justicia social
2011
RESUMEN La crisis económica que comenzó en el verano de 2007 ha provocado que tanto la tasa de desempleo como el porcentaje de personas que se encuentran por debajo del umbral de la pobreza relativa en España ronden el 20%. Si bien en los últimos quince años España ha experimentado fases de crecimiento económico importante, la proporción de personas en riesgo de pobreza se ha mantenido constante. Es probable por tanto que unas tasas negativas o muy escasamente positivas de crecimiento económico comporten un aumento significativo de la pobreza. El trabajo lleva a cabo un análisis de los modelos libertariano y socialdemócrata de justicia social, a partir de la crítica keynesiana a la teoría e…
