Self-employment duration in urban and rural locations
2009
Previous research has shown that local environment is important for self-employment. Self-employment dynamics varies between areas characterized by different labour market conditions, entrepreneurial tradition and other structural factors. Alternation between different labour market states (self-employment, paid-employment, non-employment) is also likely to increase if employment opportunities remain low in local labour market markets. This paper analyses the factors influencing the duration of self-employment spells in Finland with a large registered-based data set from the period of 1987-2002. It is evident that rates of exit out of self-employment and the length of self-employment spells…

This paper describes the study of human fibrocartilaginous entheses in a multiple indigenous sicanian Sicilian burial dated between VI and V century BC. The tomb, a cave burial, was altered by grave robbers. From the collected osteologic material it was possible to perform the sorting method and to extrapolate the NMI. The research was focused on the scoring and on the analysis of the Entheseal Changes (EC) of the long bones of upper limb and calcaneus; to extrapolate likely patterns of muscle activity according to the approach of the MSM applied in literature we have utilized the Coimbra Method. This method is a new record method who intends to replace Hawkey and Merbs already-established …
The Influence of Religion on Life Satisfaction in Italy
2021
Italy is the cradle of Catholicism and, despite the secularization process, religion continues to be part of its national culture. Although Italian sociologists have investigated the religious paradigm in Italy, there are aspects of such phenomenon still little explored. This paper examines the potential influence religion has on individuals’ life satisfaction. Data from the European Value Study survey provides evidence of a two-way interaction between religion and life satisfaction, with a substantial effect only in the case of public religious forms. This association seems to be moved by the mechanism of social support, and it differs across Italian regions. Results confirm the hypothesis…
Entre socioterminologie et ethnoterminologie de l'entreprise
2016
The analysis of the designations of the commercial jobs reveals an important terminological vagueness between specialty language and common language, a vagueness conveyed by the multiplicity of the sources and of the concerned medias. Based on this observation, we propose a socioterminological and ethnoterminological study aiming at referencing the current terminological units in the speech of the company as well as of the employees. The international group Michelin, the subject of the study, presents a very rich terminological group but especially a terminology motivated by a particular historical and cultural context. Then the company becomes a model of thought and the analysis is an atte…
Participation in Social Media: Studying Explicit and Implicit Forms of Participation in Communicative Social Networks
2016
The diverse forms of participation in social media raise many methodological and ethical issues that should be acknowledged in research. In this paper, participation in social media is studied by utilising the framework of explicit and implicit participation. The focus is on the communicative and communal aspects of social media. The aim of the paper is to promote the reconsideration of what constitutes participation when online users create connections rather than content. The underlying argument is that research on social media and the development of methods should concentrate more on implicit forms of participation.
Effatha - mowa i mówienie w księgach Starego i Nowego Testamentu
2016
Szerokie zagadnienie mowy i mówienia w Biblii zostało przedstawione przede wszystkim na dwóch płaszczyznach: historycznej i antropologicznej. W pierwszym przypadku chodziło o prześledzenie semantycznego rozwoju hebrajskich oraz greckich określeń związanych z szeroko rozumianym procesem komunikacyjnym, w drugim zaś o ukazanie zjawiska mowy z antropologicznego punktu widzenia. Całość obrazu dopełnia odnotowanie zjawiska lingwistycznego opisanego przez autorów tekstów biblijnych. W pojemnym znaczeniowo pojęciu hebrajskiego „qól" zostało ukazane cale spektrum semantyczne, rozciągające się od rzeczownika „dźwięk" do rzeczownika „głos". Ten jeden hebrajski leksem został przetłumaczony przez Grek…

Mocna kobieta - słaby mężczyzna: demaskatorski mit w twórczości Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette
2020
Colette’s work reveals the evolution of the woman’s self-awareness that took place in the 20th century, when she rejected the then-publicly accepted image of wife and mother. The author of the Claudine series through moral novelty, by addressing issues of gender identity and homosexuality, undermines stereotypes perpetuating inequalities between the sexes and male domination in the private and public sphere. She also changes the traditional way of portraying a woman in literature, creating a new type of heroine who provoked partners while fighting for her own independence.

Structure/Structuralism
2020
The first issue of Word, the Journal of the Linguistic Circle of New York, published in April 1945 by Roman Jakobson and André Martinet, both exiles living in the USA, features one of the first articles by Claude Lévi-Strauss (1958) (L’analyse structurale en linguistique et en anthropologie) and the last essay by Ernst Cassirer (2002) (Structuralism in Modern Linguistics), who died a few weeks before its publi cation. This is the official birth of structuralism, a term seemingly coined by the author of Philosophie der symbolischen Formen in his posthumous essay with its testimonial quality.
