The rationality of acceptance in a nuclear community: analysing residents' opinions on the expansion of the SNF repository in the municipality of Eur…
2010
The project to build a final disposal repository for Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) in the municipality of Eurajoki, Finland, is approaching its 2012 deadline for the application of a construction licence. At the same time, the nuclear waste company Posiva is already planning to expand the disposal capacity of the repository. This paper addresses the question of acceptance among the residents of Eurajoki regarding the repository's expansion, and examines what aspects should be taken into consideration when explaining local opinions. The local acceptance figures for Eurajoki are analysed in relation to assumptions of the six common explanation types. The relationship between information deficit, s…
La reputazione delle istituzioni formative. Una questione di cura e di coerenza
2020
What is the reputation of the school and university in our society? What social credibility do they have? At first glance, it seems necessary to answer that the two main educational institutions do not enjoy a good reputation and this for a series of reasons, two of which have particular pedagogical importance: the typical mistrust of our time towards any form of institutionalization and devaluation care work. Certainly here we can see the signs of the moral fragility of our time, linked to the questioning of all forms of authority. Although it is therefore common today to talk about the importance of educational corresponsibility between school and family, there are numerous gestures that …
DIO SALVI IL RESTAURO. L’apporto inglese alla cultura della conservazione dei monumenti
2020
Sebbene già riuscissimo a percepire quanto rilevante fosse l’apporto inglese per aver contribuito alla definizione del restauro modernamente inteso, sino ad oggi mancavano ancora sia una chiara visione d’insieme delle articolate vicende connesse all'affermazione dei princìpi conservativi, sia una più approfondita conoscenza delle fonti documentarie, necessarie al fine di tracciare i profili culturali dei protagonisti e scandagliarne i contributi teorici. La ricostruzione delle vicende è sviluppata entro margini temporali estesi all'incirca per tre secoli, dalla fine del Seicento al principio del Nove-cento, e strutturata attraverso la traduzione e lo studio di testi perlopiù mai circolati i…
Standardisation of Artificial Intelligence: Making a “New World” Brave, with Support of Human Requirements in a Machine Intelligence Environment
2022
In line with previous industrial revolutions, standardisation must accompany the deployment of artificial intelligence systems that promise to revolutionise the way we live (home automation, autonomous vehicles, EdTech, etc.) and work (collaborative industrial robots, agricultural robots, inspection and maintenance robots, LegalTech, FinTech, etc.). The standards produced and promoted in Europe will be resolutely geared towards the protection of people and property, thus promoting the acceptability of these intelligent systems and the common interest. They will have to cover the requirements expected of AIs, but also the means and methods for assessing them. The new standards will have to c…
A Novel Recruitment Policy to Defend against Sybils in Vehicular Crowdsourcing
2021
Vehicular Social Networks (VSNs) is an emerging communication paradigm, derived by merging the concepts of Online Social Networks (OSNs) and Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs). Due to the lack of robust authentication mechanisms, social-based vehicular applications are vulnerable to numerous attacks including the generation of sybil entities in the networks. We address this important issue in vehicular crowdsourcing campaigns where sybils are usually employed to increase their influence and worsen the functioning of the system. In particular, we propose a novel User Recruitment Policy (URP) that, after extracting the participants within the event radius of a crowdsourcing campaign, detects …
Robot's Inner Speech Effects on Trust and Anthropomorphic Cues in Human-Robot Cooperation
2021
Inner Speech is an essential but also elusive human psychological process which refers to an everyday covert internal conversation with oneself. We argue that programming a robot with an overt self-talk system, which simulates human inner speech, might enhance human trust by improving robot transparency and anthropomorphism. For this reasons, this work aims to investigate if robot’s inner speech, here intended as overt self-talk, affects human trust and anthropomorphism when human and robot cooperate. A group of participants was engaged in collaboration with the robot. During cooperation, the robot talks to itself. To evaluate if the robot’s inner speech influences human trust, two question…

Advising in family firms: shaping relational dynamics and trustful connections in strategy work
2022
The purpose of this article is to explore strategy advisors’ actions and interactions with family actors and nonfamily managers for strategy work in family businesses. By combining the strategy-as-practice perspective with the concept of emotional engagement practices, we interpret the case of a family firm collaborating with an external advisor over a 15-year period. We add to prior studies by showing how advisors work to build trustful and emotional connections that shape relational dynamics within evolving spaces of strategic discussion. We highlight the implications for strategy work, which change as relational dynamics develop over time.
Matrix e la dialettica servo-padrone nella tarda modernità
2019
Si prendono in esame i punti di contatto tra la trilogia di Matrix, gli Animatrix e la logica della Dialettica dell'Illuminismo di Horkheimer e Adorno.Si illustra il modo in cui, nella logica tardomoderna, si produca l'assorbimento sistematico delle controculture all'interno della dominante industria culturale. Si riprende il problema dei riflessi sulla sfera cognitiva, e si illustra, con il supporto di una ricerca affrontata con una simulazione ad agenti, come l'overload informativo e la ipersecializzazione dei saperi producano ansia, panico, rifiuto delle conoscenze capaci di mettere in crisi i saperi dominanti. In this article are examined the points of contact between the Matrix trilogy…
Media, representation of organized crime and trust building.
