Loss of habitats, naturalness and species diversity in Eurasian forest landscapes
2010
Abstract Man has exploited land and forests in Western and Central Europe longer and more intensively than in Northern Europe and further east in Eurasia. We estimated forest naturalness and modelled expected biodiversity loss in seven different landscapes (2500 km2 each) in the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Poland, St. Petersburg (Western European Russia), Perm (Eastern European Russia), and Irkutsk (Central Siberia) across the distribution of Pinus sylvestris L. in Eurasia. Field inventories showed that the mean living tree volumes were relatively similar in the studied sites, but the volumes of dead wood differed greatly. In Irkutsk and Perm the volume of dead trees per ha was about 5–10…
Becoming more EUropean or European after ERASMUS?
2015
Lijphart was the first to emphasize the necessity to study the impact of student mobility upon European integration, but mobility programmes have only been studied in the last decade. The European Commission points to the ERASMUS programme as a successful example of construction of European identity; however, this assumption hasn’t yet been empirically proved on an European scale. This paper has been devoted to research of the impact of the ERASMUS programme on fostering European identity in Europe. In academic literature at least two different understandings of the European identity can be distinguished: political and cultural European identity. The quantitative survey (in which 12’173 res…
Una segregazione paradossale e multi-scalare: il caso del quartiere ZEN di Palermo
2016
L’articolo affronta la questione della segregazione nel quartiere ZEN di Palermo (Sicilia). L’impianto teorico dialoga con la letteratura anglosassone, ma ne prende le distanze nel tentativo di individuare alcune specificità locali del caso. L’obiettivo è duplice: intanto indentificare alcuni “movimenti geostorici” che hanno caratterizzato il quartiere, collegando a ciascuno di questi una fase del processo segregativo; inoltre, rappresentare la segregazione del quartiere in forma cartografica, mediante l’uso di alcuni ideogrammi e mappe mentali. This article deals with the issue of segregation in the ZEN district of Palermo, Sicily. The theoretical framework is built around Anglo-Saxon refe…
Democratic Principles and the Economic Branch of the European Monetary Union
2017
L'articolo si propone di indagare sul valore che i vari principi democratici enunciati nel TUE hanno nello specifico settore dell'UEM, in particolare nel pilastro della politica economica, dopo l'entrata in vigore delle riforme contenute nel Six pack e nel successivo Two Pack. Il lavoro intende in particolare rispondere a tre domande: A) le regole contenute nel six pack e nel two pack in tema di controllo democratico sono espressione di un preciso modello di controllo democratico sulle scelte di politica economica nell'ambito dell'UEM? B) E' un simile modello compatibile con i principi democratici del TUE? C) I principi democratici non rappresentativi possono compensare il minor peso che vi…
