Because Faculty of Science is not equipped yet in expensive instrumentation for nuclear spectrometry, cross-border cooperatio…
Capitanes del Renacimiento. Ética militar en la España mediterránea, c. 1500-1550
2004
En la Europa del siglo XVI los valores caballerescos, fundamento de la ética de la aristocracia militar, se enriquecieron con los ideales cortesanos. En este artículo estudiamos la difusión de esos ideales entre los oficiales del ejército de la Monarquía hispánica en los diversos reinos de la España Mediterránea. Estimamos que esta conjunción de principios morales proporcionó la base para una incipiente disciplina de los mandos militares. In Sixteenth Century Europe, the chivalric values which were in the core of military aristocracy ethics became enriched with court-like ideals. In this paper we study the diffusion of those ideals among army officers of the Hispanic Monarchy in the various…
Ai confini dell’etica: la Teoria dell’amore e del libero arbitrio
2021
Dai suoi studi dedicati alla Divina Commedia (vol. XIX/2), Romano Guardini ci propone un’analisi dell’etica dantesca, vale a dire dell’architettura di valori che Dante pose a reggere i regni dell’aldilà, e che dall’aldilà disvela il corretto ordine dell’universo e l’essenza propria della persona. A condizione dell’agire etico v’è il valore della libertà, l’umana facoltà di scelta che in vita incontra il vincolo della responsabilità: la persona libera è responsabile poiché e finché nella vita terrena decide di sé. Il senso della “Teoria dell’amore e del libero arbitrio” che Guardini scorge come nucleo dell’etica dantesca è quello di una libertà che attratta dal valore -e dai valori- ad essi …
Dante educatore: note sulla pedagogia di Romano Guardini
2022
Il presente contributo si propone di esplorare il lungo lavoro che nel corso della vita l’autore Romano Guardini svolse sulla Divina Commedia. Ne sono frutto i volumi oggi editi nel piano dell’Opera Omnia: "Studi Danteschi" e "La Divina Commedia di Dante. I principali concetti filosofici e religiosi". Guidando il lettore attraverso i diversi strati dell’interpretazione guardiniana, si tenterà di lasciar emergere un inatteso carattere pedagogico del viaggio dantesco, che può rivelarsi particolarmente prezioso per la cultura contemporanea. This paper aims at exploring Romano Guardini’s life-long work on the “Divina Commedia”. The result of his work are the two recently published volumes in th…
Tourism as a Form of New Psychological Resilience: The Inception of Dark Tourism
2012
Tourism industry is considered as an activity based on higher tolerance to frustration, in other terms as a resilient industry. At some extent, the diverse threats that impinge on tourism in late modernity not only did not alter its logic, but strengthened its presence worldwide. Concepts as dark tourism or thanatourism started to be adopted and applied in tourism-related research. Nonetheless, these studies are not interested in revealing neither the anthropological roots of the issue nor the representation of founding trauma (as sacralisation of the dead). Natural and made-man disasters give lessons to communities that are rechanneled by means of mythical mechanism of resiliency. Tourism,…
Research Methods in Dark Tourism Fields
2018
The current chapter delves into the methodologies as well as limitations of used method in dark tourism fields. As fieldworkers are familiar, sometimes interviewees not only are incognizant of their inner-world, but in other occasion, they simply do not say the truth to protect their own interests. Though in tourism and dark tourism fields, researchers are prone to administer questionnaires or interviews as the main methodological option, no less true is that results are far from being clear or have very problems to be organized in an all-encompassing model.
Dark Tourism Tribes: Social Capital as a Variable
2020
There is a recent morbid tendency to consume (gaze) sites of mass death, mourning and suffering. This tendency was baptized in different forms such as dark tourism, thana-tourism or mourning tourism to name only a few. To date, no matter the multiplication of theories and studies, two great tendencies coexist. On one hand, some voices allude to the dark tourism as a mechanism of reisilience which helps community to recover after a disaster takes hit. The other signals to the pedagogical functions of dark tourism as a fertile ground to develop empathy with the Other’s pain. The present chapter reviews the strengths and weaknesses of both position with strong focus on the cultures of neo-trib…

Systems Thinking and Sustainability in Organisations
2015
This set of articles arises from a series of conferences (Business Systems Laboratory Symposia, 2013-2015) and in particular from the 2nd Business systems Laboratory International Symposium, Rome 2014 with the theme ‘Systems Thinking for a Sustainable Economy’, concerned with systems thinking and its relations with sustainable management, where the relevance of systems thinking was demonstrated. The current period of our global society is characterised by intense transformations in the competitive logics of organisations, markets, and, generally speaking, society. Social circumstances today are typified by dynamism, connectivity, nonlinearity, and emergent properties — in other words by ‘co…
PERSONAL AND SITUATIONAL DETERMINANTS OF RELATIONSHIP-SPECIFIC PERCEPTIONS OF SOCIAL SUPPORT
2004
This study explores personal (self-esteem, perceived stress, and depressive mood) and situational (undesirable life events) variables as determinants of relationship-specific perceptions of social support. Structural equation analyses from two-wave panel data (N = 583) of adult participants from a community-based urban sample revealed that, after controlling for initial levels of perceived social support, psychological characteristics (high levels of stress and depression, and low levels of self-esteem) and situational determinants (number of undesirable life events) were both negatively related to perceived social support from specific significant relationships over time. Multigroup analys…
