Gendered Violence Online : Hate Speech as an Intersection of Misogyny and Racism
2020
Social media has been adopted by radical right populists and alt-right demagogues as a platform for circulating misogynous and racist hate speech and affectively mobilising supporters. This chapter examines hate speech as a form of gendered and racist violence, focusing on social media posts by two influential right-wing populist politicians: Jussi Halla-aho, the leader of the Finns Party, and Donald Trump, the president of the United States. It demonstrates how these politicians intertwine misogyny and racism in blog posts and tweets that target women in particular. Their affective online communication is interpreted as a new form of violence. This digitally mediated violence, although a r…
Creating Learning Environments Free of Violence in Special Education through the Dialogic Model of Prevention and Resolution of Conflicts
2021
Violence suffered by children is a violation of human rights and a global health problem. Children with disabilities are especially vulnerable to violence in the school environment, which has a negative impact on their well-being and health. Students with disabilities educated in special schools have, in addition, more reduced experiences of interaction that may reduce both their opportunities for learning and for building protective social networks of support. This study analyses the transference of evidence-based actions to prevent violence in schools –the Dialogic Model of Prevention and Resolution of Conflicts (DMPRC)– in the context of a special school, and its impact on the reduction …

2015
Vivere la democrazia in una società multiculturale presuppone che i soggetti presenti nello stesso territorio condividano lo stesso spazio pubblico e un progetto democratico comune nel rispetto del diritto e delle procedure giuridiche e politiche. Presuppone anche che le persone arrivino a trovare (o a ritrovare) il sentirsi comunità, che sviluppino un senso di appartenenza comune e instaurino tra loro relazioni fiduciarie a partire dalle quali e grazie alle quali vivere l’esperienza di convivenza quotidiana in termini di condivisione delle responsabilità e di valore della relazione. In questa direzione, la mediazione può portare un importante contributo alla costruzione, o ricostruzione, d…
