2021
La creciente importancia de las enfermedades crónicas como causa de muerte y la atención que actualmente se presta al final de la vida han creado interés en el papel de las disciplinas sociosanitarias en el momento y el modo de muerte.

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.

Abstract Before performing a clinical, diagnostic, and/or therapeutic action, the doctor is required to provide the patient with a bulk of information defined as informed consent. This expression was used for the first time in 1957 during a court case in California and the two words— informed and consent —are used together to underline the fact that the patient cannot give his or her true consent without first receiving correct information concerning the medical act in question. With regard to the medicolegal aspects governing organ transplants, despite the bulk of detailed work performed by health service workers involved in this surgical field with the aim of preparing adequate informed c…
