Integrating soil survey, land use management and political ecology: A case study in a border area between Peru and Ecuador
2013
In Latin America countries, competition for access to natural resources among different groups has been a major reason for the outburst of violence over the last decades. One of the main aims of the political ecology concerns the understanding of the environmental conditions that can underlies the social conflict among people. Such understanding needs to be based on a detailed investigation of the natural resources of the landscape, mainly the soils. Few years ago the Italian Ministry for Foreign Affairs financed a soil survey with a humanitarian purpose: the development of a peace plan between Peru and Ecuador by improving the socio-economic conditions of the rural populations living in th…
La transformación de la esfera familiar en el Derecho de extranjería español
2013
espanolLa articulacion legal del derecho a la vida familiar en Derecho de extranjeria se rige por una logica restrictiva cuyo alcance implica una autentica "metamorfosis" de las relaciones familiares. De un lado, la ley combina una composicion nuclear y dependiente para promover un ideal tipo dominante de familia que resulta abiertamente excluyente de otras realidades familiares existentes en la realidad social. Y de otro lado, neutraliza la diversidad del entorno familiar modulando otras formas de reconocimiento con vistas a instaurar un modelo de familia preferiblemente no conflictivo. Desde una perspectiva critica, este trabajo se centra el verdadero alcance del regimen de la reagrupacio…
Abuse of consumer trust in the digital market and the green market: the case of green washing in the Italian legal system
2022
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to offer some reflection on the abuse of consumer trust and the importance of control of information in the digital market and the green market. The role of the consumer as the arbiter of the market is fundamental. The abuse of consumer confidence depends, in fact, on the spread of stereotyped messages and vague and generic formulas aimed at hiding a dangerous vacuum of protection. In both markets, it is a question of giving the consumer the necessary tools to monitor the transparency of the criteria used by the trader to classify a product according to its characteristics. Design/methodology/approach Based on the analysis of an Italian case law and the…
Palaeontological Heritage: protected vs. unprotected areas. The case of Clot de Galvany Municipal Natural Park and Elche reservoir surroundings
2019
Concerning palaeontological and geological heritage of a particular place, being or not being under legal protection influences its preservation. As two examples, cases of Clot de Galvany Municipal Natural Park and Elche reservoir surroundings are exposed. Developed by the Palaeontologic Museum of Elche, Project FOPALI assessment methodology has been applied.
INTEGRACIÓN DE LA MEDIACION EN LA JUSTICIA PENAL. SUPUESTOS ESPECIALES (Integration of Criminal Mediation in Criminal Justice. Some Special Cases)
2014
Spanish Abstract: En el momento actual que vivimos hablar de mediacion penal es ya una realidad incuestionable. Una mirada al pasado nos lleva a afirmar que no siempre fue asi y que la evolucion de este devenir no ha sido un camino de rosas. Antes al contrario, su entendimiento, aceptacion e incorporacion a los ordenamientos juridicos fue mucho mas lenta que en el ambito de lo disponible -civil, mercantil, laboral etc- e incluso todavia hay determinados ordenamientos en los que existe una gran resistencia a su aceptacion, siendo especialmente significativo en alguno de ellos, como por ejemplo Japon, que viene arrastrando una larga historia cultural de mediacion civil, comercial, social, sie…
Franchisors' disclosure duty: market transparency and franchisee protection
2014
The franchisee is usually the most vulnerable part of the franchise relationship, and should therefore receive greater protection from the legal framework. In this regard, the franchisor's pre-contractual disclosure duty has evolved in its legal status. Whereas its original purpose was to ensure transparency in the market, it now serves to protect the franchisee. In this paper, we compare the franchisor's obligations established by the legal framework in Spain with those set out in the Model Law drawn up by The International Institute for the Unification of Private Law.
Legally protected cultural goods and bankruptcy proceedings
2020
This paper deals with general problems of legal aims of bankruptcy proceedings in connection with the aims of heritage protection – issues built by completely different systems of values. Bankruptcy is designed for protecting pecuniary interest of a limited group of people, while cultural heritage is protected for present and future generations, despite its current commercial significance. In the global environment, bankruptcy of a cultural goods owner usually has a cross-border range but national bankruptcy legislations and laws devoted to heritage protection differ in very serious aspects. For this reason the paper is not limited to any concrete legal order. There are discussed some impor…
Light transmission and ultraviolet protection of contact lenses under artificial illumination
2016
Purpose: To determine the spectral transmission of contact lenses (CLs), with and without an ultraviolet (UV) filter to evaluate their capacity for protection under UV radiation from artificial illumination (incandescent, fluorescent, xenon (Xe) lamps, or white LEDs (light-emitting diode)). Methods: The transmission curves of nine soft CLs were obtained by using a PerkinElmer Lambda 35 UV-vis spectrophotometer. A CIE standard was used for the emission spectra of incandescent and fluorescent lamps, and Xe lamps and white LEDs were measured by using an International Light Technologies ILT-950 spectroradiometer. Results: Five of the nine soft CLs analysed state that they incorporate UV filters…
Design optimization for the quench protection of DTT's superconducting toroidal field magnets
2021
Abstract The paper is focused on the optimal design of Fast Discharge Unit (FDU) for the quench protection of the Toroidal Field (TF) magnets of the Divertor Tokamak Test facility (DTT), an experimental facility under construction in ENEA Frascati Research Centre (Rome, Italy). The FDU is a safety key component that protects the superconducting magnets when a quench is detected through the fast extraction of the energy stored in the magnets by adding a discharge dump resistor (DR) in the TF magnets circuit. A comparison between a fixed DR and a switched variable DR has been implemented by changing resistor parameters and by using multiple current control of the power electronics components …
¿Qué perspectivas para las lenguas regionales de Francia?
2014
Nous étudions, dans ce travail, la situation de langues en contact en France et les politiques linguistiques qui ont été menées depuis que le français a été institué langue officielle du pays, afin de déterminer les perspectives de reconnaissance nationale qui existent pour les autres langues, encore sans statut officiel. Le traitement exclusivement national qu’elles ont reçu jusqu’à la fin du XXe siècle se heurte aujourd’hui à la position de défense et de protection des langues régionales de l’Union Européenne. Nous analyserons les deux approches, nationale et européenne, avant de conclure en termes d’attentes pour ces langues minoritaires. We study in this work the situation of the langua…
