Violence against Women and Femicide: an analysis on the murders of foreign women in Italy
2022
AbstractThis paper presents the results of a research on the representations of femicide in the judicial field, in Italy. The use of the term femicide is analysed through the lens of the normative process, examining its social meanings and questioning its political and economic anchoring using the “juridical field” model (Bourdieu 1986). The essay is based on a wide theoretical framework. It starts by highlighting the problems evoked by the term ‘femicide’ (Corradi, et al. 2016; Radford and Russell 1992); its declension in criminal law and jurisprudence through its coding in specific types of offence (Merli 2015). The topics of power and imbalance between the sexes (Goffman 1977) are analys…
Romances conyugales : buenas y malas esposas en la literatura popular del siglo XVIII
2009
La literatura de cordel conoció una amplia difusión por las plazas y caminos de España a lo largo del siglo XVIII. Estas narraciones no sólo constituían un divertimento para su público, sino que también ofrecían diversos modelos de comportamiento o normas imitables acordes con los valores y las “buenas costumbres” de la época. En relación con las imágenes del matrimonio que los romances divulgaban, esa implícita voluntad moralizadora se hacía más evidente, dada la importancia de esta institución para el mantenimiento del orden social, y se dirigía de modo predominante hacia las mujeres, sobre las que se cargaba el peso de la prosperidad de la relación conyugal. El análisis de estas represen…
A note on the Lawrence-Krammer-Bigelow representation
2002
A very popular problem on braid groups has recently been solved by Bigelow and Krammer, namely, they have found a faithful linear representation for the braid group B_n. In their papers, Bigelow and Krammer suggested that their representation is the monodromy representation of a certain fibration. Our goal in this paper is to understand this monodromy representation using standard tools from the theory of hyperplane arrangements. In particular, we prove that the representation of Bigelow and Krammer is a sub-representation of the monodromy representation which we consider, but that it cannot be the whole representation.

The hidden face of expertise! Representations and descriptions of wines by different groups of experts in a vineyard in full evolution : the Beaujola…
2022
The Beaujolais vineyard is today in full evolution thanks to a policy of upgrading and moving upmarket. This evolution leads to the development of new mentions within the vineyard. This evolution impacts the Beaujolais wines but also the wine experts who are in the heart of making, selling and promoting these wines. Wine expertise has been studied extensively over the past twenty years. Most studies have focused on experts as a unified group versus novices to understand the effect of expertise on the knowledge and abilities of experts. However, it appears that within this unity, there are several types of experts with different backgrounds, knowledge, experiences, and professions: wine make…

Measuring Distraction at the Levels of Tactical and Strategic Control: The Limits of Capacity-Based Measures for Revealing Unsafe Visual Sampling Mod…
2011
The control theory of driving suggests that driver distraction can be analyzed as a breakdown of control at three levels. Common approach for analyzing distraction experimentally is to utilize capacity-based measures to assess distraction at the level of operational control. Three driving simulation experiments with 61 participants were organized to evaluate which kind of measures could be used to analyze drivers' tactical visual sampling models and the related effects of distraction while searching textual information on in-car display. The effects of two different text types were evaluated. The utilized capacity-based measures seemed to be insufficient for revealing participants' tactical…
From alternative representations to prospective visions. The administrative subdivisions in Palermo (Italy)
2016
Alternative representations of the city are not only a useful analysis tool, but they also provide elements of a conceived new version of lived space that can contribute to ameliorate the spatial justice of the city. This is even truer for intra-local spaces that are the reference scale for many public participation policies, grass-root projects and activists. In this paper, we present the case of Palermo where the administrative subdivisions of the urban space have been imposed – because of legislation about administrative decentralisation – on the historical and perceived ones. Alternative mapping shows intra-local spaces as places of identity definition and civic engagement. In our paper…
Representações sociais, sens pratique, poder simbólico e o processo de construção do ser docente
2019
A partir de las elaboraciones teóricas de los fundadores del campo de investigación de las representaciones sociales, se pretende avanzar en la construcción de un diálogo entre esta teoría y la praxis social de Pierre Bourdieu, centrándose en la relación entre las representaciones sociales, la praxis sensorial (como manifestación del hábito) y el poder simbólico, dimensión ausente en el modelo moscoviciano. La base empírica a partir de la cual se desarrollan las reflexiones presentes en este artículo se apoya en investigaciones realizadas sobre el proceso de construcción del ser docente, en la realidad de algunas ciudades del nordeste brasileño. En este sentido, se destaca lo que se cree qu…
