La mafia alla sbarra. I processi fascisti a Palermo
2014
L’hinterland palermitano costituisce uno dei principali luoghi di genesi del fenomeno mafioso. Già nel 1900, il questore di Palermo denunciava l’«Alta maffia dei Ciaculli». Da allora, per oltre un secolo, le cosche di Santa Maria di Gesù e Ciaculli avrebbero saldamente mantenuto il potere criminale, continuando a «funestare» Palermo con «i molti gravi delitti di sangue». È in questa parte della Conca d’oro che hanno imperato blasonate famiglie mafiose, come quella dei Greco o dei Bontate, capeggiate negli anni Settanta-Ottanta del Novecento da Michele Greco, «il papa», e da Stefano Bontate, «il principe di Villagrazia». La repressione fascista degli anni Venti colpì per qualche tempo queste…
Frammenti di biografie plurali
2022
Ritorno a Palermo dopo tredici anni trascorsi in Umbria. Anni importanti in cui ho frequentato l’università laureandomi in filosofia e conseguendo un dottorato di ricerca; indagando sui temi del disagio psichico e della crisi della presenza in De Martino; sotto la guida di Tullio Seppilli, che di De Martino era stato allievo e il cui rigore nella ricerca è stato per me un esempio indimenticabile. Scappata a diciotto anni da una terra che mi aveva schiacciata con la sua violenza. In primo luogo sul versante privato. Una gelida brutalità di cui – quando sono andata via, determinata a non tornare – non percepivo fino in fondo i risvolti sul piano politico e della limitazione degli spazi fisici…
La violenza delle mafie
2017
Nell’ambito delle attività promosse dal progetto STAR-Linea 1 The use of violence and organized crime. A socio-economic analysis of Camorra clans in Campania, «Meridiana» ha organizzato una tavola rotonda sul tema della violenza delle mafie che si è tenuta il 9 novembre 2017 presso il Dipartimento di Scienze Politiche dell’Università di Napoli Federico II durante i due giorni del Convegno finale di presentazione dei risultati del progetto. Alla tavola rotonda, coordinata da Monica Massari, hanno partecipato studiosi e studiose del fenomeno mafioso di diverse generazioni e ambiti disciplinari, presenti in quei giorni a Napoli per partecipare al Convegno. Nelle pagine che seguono si riportano…
Spoken-Word Segmentation and Dyslexia
2002
We used magnetoencephalography to elucidate the cortical activation associated with the segmentation of spoken words in nonreading-impaired and dyslexic adults. The subjects listened to binaurally presented sentences where the sentence-ending words were either semantically appropriate or inappropriate to the preceding sentence context. Half of the inappropriate final words shared two or three initial phonemes with the highly expected semantically appropriate words. Two temporally and functionally distinct response patterns were detected in the superior temporal lobe. The first response peaked at approximately 100 msec in the supratemporal plane and showed no sensitivity to the semantic appr…
More comprehensive proprioceptive stimulation of the hand amplifies its cortical processing
2021
Corticokinematic coherence (CKC) quantifies the phase coupling between limb kinematics and cortical neurophysiological signals reflecting proprioceptive feedback to the primary sensorimotor (SM1) cortex. We studied whether the CKC strength or cortical source location differs between proprioceptive stimulation (i.e., actuator-evoked movements) of right-hand digits (index, middle, ring, and little). Twenty-one volunteers participated in magnetoencephalography measurements during which three conditions were tested: 1) simultaneous stimulation of all four fingers at the same frequency, 2) stimulation of each finger separately at the same frequency, and 3) simultaneous stimulation of the fingers…
Automatic Processing of Changes in Facial Emotions in Dysphoria: A Magnetoencephalography Study
2018
It is not known to what extent the automatic encoding and change detection of peripherally presented facial emotion is altered in dysphoria. The negative bias in automatic face processing in particular has rarely been studied. We used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to record automatic brain responses to happy and sad faces in dysphoric (Beck’s Depression Inventory ≥ 13) and control participants. Stimuli were presented in a passive oddball condition, which allowed potential negative bias in dysphoria at different stages of face processing (M100, M170, and M300) and alterations of change detection (visual mismatch negativity, vMMN) to be investigated. The magnetic counterpart of the vMMN was el…
Brain Functional Effects of Psychopharmacological Treatment in Major Depression: A Focus on Neural Circuitry of Affective Processing
2015
In the last two decades, neuroimaging research has reached a much deeper understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of major depression (MD) and has converged on functional alterations in limbic and prefrontal neural networks, which are mainly linked to altered emotional processing observed in MD patients. To date, a considerable number of studies have sought to investigate how these neural networks change with pharmacological antidepressant treatment. In the current review, we therefore discuss results from a) pharmacological functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies investigating the effects of selective serotonin or noradrenalin reuptake inhibitors on neural activation…
Difūzijas procesu parametru novērtēšanas metodes
2020
Maģistra darbā tika aplūkotas divas difūzijas procesu parametru novērtēšanas metodes maksimālās ticamības funkcijas metode un empīriskās ticamības funkcijas metode. Darbā ir aprakstīti difūzijas procesi, stohastiskie diferenciālvienādojumi, Ornšteina-Ulenbeka process, Vasičeka modelis, Koksa-Ingersolla-Rossa modelis. Darba mērķis ir novērtēt Vasičeka modeļa parametrus, izmantojot maksimālās ticamības funkcijas novērtējumu un empīriskās ticamības funkcijas novērtējumu un salīdzināt rezultātus. Vasičeka modelis tika pielietots reāliem datiem un aprēķināti modeļa parametri ar parametrisko un neparametrisko metodi.
Fizisko personu saistību dzēšanas procedūras tiesiskās problēmas un to risinājumi
2016
Maģistra darbā „Fizisko personu saistību dzēšanas procedūras tiesiskās problēmas un to risinājumi”, autore, aplūkojot dažādus literatūras avotus un tiesu praksi, analizēja fizisko personu saistību dzēšanas institūta piemērošanas tendences, aktualitātes un to iespaidu uz turpmāko institūta attīstību un to nozīmi civiltiesiskajā apgrozībā vispār. Galvojuma mērķim ir prioritāte pār galvojuma akcesoritāti arī galvenā parādnieka (fiziskās personas) maksātnespējas gadījumā, pastāvot nosacījumam, ka parādnieks (fiziskās persona) izpilda saistību dzēšanas plānu maksātnespējas procesa ietvaros, tiek atbrīvots no parādsaistībām. Tiesību piemērotājam būtu nepieciešams vadīties pēc principa, ka katrs C…
Ļaunprātīga maksātnespēja, tās pazīmes un iespējamie risinājumi
2015
Bakalaura darba tēmas aktuālitāte pamatojama ar sabiedrībā plašajām diskusijām par vērienīgiem naudas izkrāpšanas mēģinājumiem, līdz ar to radot neuzticību tiesu sistēmai un tajā iesaistītajām personām. Papildus tam, tādi aizdevēji kā AS “Norvik banka”, AS “SEB banka”, AS “Swedbank”, AS “REVERTA”, kā arī AS “Danske bank” (turpmāk tekstā – Bankas) ir ieguldījušas laiku un līdzekļus, lai ļaunprātīgas maksātnespējas jautājumam pievērstu ne tikai tiesībaizsargājošo iestāžu vērību, bet arī visas sabiedrības uzmanību. Darba mērķis ir nonākt pie reāla ļaunprātīgas maksātnespējas risinājuma, kas maksimālos apjomos ierobežotu negodīgu personu naudas izkrāpšanas shēmas un veicinātu godīgas, tiesiskas…
