Sustainable Forest Operations (SFO): A new paradigm in a changing world and climate
2018
The effective implementation of sustainable forest management depends largely on carrying out forest operations in a sustainable manner. Climate change, as well as the increasing demand for forest products, requires a re-thinking of forest operations in terms of sustainability. In this context, it is important to understand the major driving factors for the future development of forest operations that promote economic, environmental and social well-being. The main objective of this paper is to identify important issues concerning forest operations and to propose a new paradigm towards sustainability in a changing climate, work and environmental conditions. Previously developed concepts of f…
Money in an Estimated Business Cycle Model of the Euro Area
2006
We present maximum likelihood estimates of a small scale dynamic general equilibrium model for the Eurozone. We pay special attention to the role of money, both through its direct effect upon private agents’ decisions and as a component of the monetary policy rule. Our results can be summarized as follows. First, we find no direct effect of money upon inflation and output but money growth plays a significant role in the interest rate rule. Second, money demand shocks mainly help to forecast real balances while real shocks explain the bulk of price, output and interest rates fluctuations. Third, the estimated model predicts sensible conditional correlations among those variables both to dema…
On robustness and dynamics in (un)balanced coalitional games
2012
In this paper we investigate robustness and dynamics for coalitional games with transferable utilities (TU games). In particular we study sequences of TU games. These sequences model dynamic situations in which the values of coalitions of players are not known beforehand, and are subject to changes over time. An allocation rule assigns a payoff to each player in each time period. This payoff is bounded by external restrictions, for example due to contractual agreements. Our main questions are: (i) under which conditions do the allocations converge to a core-element of the game, and (ii) when do the allocations converge to some specific allocation, the so-called nominal allocation? The main …
Corporate governance and performance: An analysis of Italian listed companies
2020
In recent years, both corporate governance and performance management have been subjected to considerable changes. In this dynamic context, it is interesting to study the evolution of the relationship between performance and governance. Does governance still affect performance? The purpose of this paper is to verify the presence and intensity (extent) of the relationship between corporate governance and performance in Italian listed companies by using both accounting and non-accounting performance measures. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of prior firm performance on board composition and governance structure of some companies listed on the Italian stock exchange, an…
Per una critica dell’art. 319-quater c.p. Una terza via tra concussione e corruzione
2013
L’introduzione dell’art. 319-quater mira a risolvere i problemi storicamente po-sti dalla distinzione tra corruzione e concussione. Pur sorretta da uno spunto condivisibile, quella disposizione, per il modo in cui è concretamente concepita, finisce tuttavia per solle-vare un novero di questioni fors’anche superiore rispetto a quelle che contribuisce a risolve-re. Gli stessi problemi si sarebbero potuti assai più agevolmente risolvere, già in vigenza del precedente sistema, sol che si fosse accettato di superare il dogma della mutua esclusività di quelle due fattispecie.
Duration of first-line antiretroviral therapy with tenofovir and emtricitabine combined with atazanavir/ritonavir, efavirenz or lopinavir/ritonavir i…
2013
Objectives: To explore the durability of three first-line tenofovir/emtricitabine-based regimens in combination with atazanavir/ritonavir, efavirenz or lopinavir/ritonavir in HIV-1-infected patients. Patients and methods: A retrospective, longitudinal, multicentre analysis of adult patients enrolled in the Antiretroviral Resistance Cohort Analysis (ARCA), a national prospective observational cohort of HIV-1-infected patients followed up at more than 100 clinical and laboratory units in Italy. Patients eligible were those starting first-line antiretroviral therapy between 1 June 2004 and 15 April 2011 and who were followed up for at least 6 months. The primary endpoint was durability, define…
Denunce anonime e attività "pre-procedimentale" del pubblico ministero
2006
Di fronte a un panorama giurisprudenziale che sancisce la nullità dei decreti di perquisizione e sequestro emanati a seguito di una denuncia anonima, la sentenza in commento rappresenta una meteora pericolosa che potrebbe legittimare attività poste in essere a iniziativa della polizia giudiziaria e finanche del pubblico ministero sostanzialmente ricusate dalla regola esclusoria che, pure nel sistema vigente, si è voluto adottare in tema di anonimi. Tuttavia, la chiusura all'anonimo non è stata prevista come assoluta, ma si è cercato di salvaguardare la possibile plausibilità del suo contenuto . Qui il vero nodo della querelle: le modalità concrete dell'utilizzo della denuncia anonima, sotto…
Dal recinto della preferenza alla trascendenza del desiderio.Una riflessione sulla formazione
2020
Nel nostro tempo, il tema del desiderio ha un grande spazio nelle riflessioni sull’educazione, perlopiù nel contesto di una generale esaltazione delle emozioni. Infatti, dopo secoli in cui il valore delle emozioni non era riconosciuto, né sul piano teorico né nei diversi contesti dell’esperienza vissuta, oggi viviamo in un tempo in cui di emozioni si parla (e scrive) moltissimo, tanto che si può rintracciare un vero e proprio "culto dell’emozione" (M. Lacroix) . In questo orizzonte, anche il desiderio sembra godere di una condizione di indiscussa legittimazione, ma cercherò qui di mostrare come l’equiparazione del desiderio a preferenza nasca all’interno di una certa lettura del soggetto um…

The environmental product declaration EPD with a particular application to a solar thermal collector
2003
The principles of sustainable development and of Integrated Product Policy are applied in new voluntary regulations, which have been internationally agree. The aim is to grant transparency of environmental information and to promote the diffusion of environmentally friendly products. A new tool under study is the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), a technical paper annexed to products that synthesises their energy and environmental performances. This paper points out the reasons for developing EPD for the energy sector, and puts special focus upon renewable energy systems, products whose environmental performances are often not clearly defined. We describe how results of a LCA upon a …
