Making conservation sustainable under unfavourable conditions : the case of Chimanimani National Reserve, Mozambique
2019
Based on a case study from the Chimanimani National Reserve in Mozambique, this article analyses to what extent different types of operational practices can contribute to the sustainability of protected areas in relatively unfavourable external conditions. While current conservation policies highlight community participation and market-based approaches, the same “best practices” are not equally valid under different conditions. Where unfavourable natural conditions, lack of infrastructure, difficult access and political instability limit the potential for upmarket ecotourism, actors should focus on community empowerment, diversification of livelihoods, and building joint conservation ideolo…
Recommendations of the Spanish Working Group on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis (GETECCU) on topical therapy in ulcerative colitis
2020
Although most patients with ulcerative colitis should be given topical treatment, different studies have shown that they are underused in clinical practice. The purpose of this article is to answer 10 specific questions about which drugs are available for topical use in the treatment of ulcerative colitis, and their characteristics in terms of formulation, dosage, presentation, application and proximal distribution of rectal-administered drugs. The efficacy of available topical drugs and the benefits of combining different formulations and routes of administration, and their usefulness during disease remission are evaluated. Finally, a series of recommendations addressed to patients are giv…
From the Normative Heaven to Crude Matter. The Discursive Transformation of Good Government into Governance
2017
International audience; Abstract. The abundant use of the concept of good governance in political and media discourse can lead us to conclude that we are currently encountering a conceptual innovation. In actual fact it is an old concept that has its roots in classical political theory and resists any clear and precise definition. This article aims to reflect on the main changes experienced by the concept of good government and its metamorphosis into governance, by means of an analysis using a narrative of conceptual transformation from a normative logic to a technocratic logic.; Del cielo normativo a la tosca materia. La transformación discursiva del buen gobierno en gobernanza 1 María Áng…
Il diritto ad una buona amministrazione e gli strumenti alternativi di risoluzione delle controversie
2019
Attraverso il prisma della giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia, il saggio è volto a verificare se gli strumenti disciplinati nell'ordinamento interno che realizzano forme alternative di risoluzione delle controversie (reclamo, mediazione, accertamento con adesione e conciliazione giudiziale) costituiscono altrettanti strumenti di possibile declinazione del diritto di partecipazione e, più in generale, del diritto ad una buona amministrazione. Trough the case law of the Court of Justice, the study verifies whether domestic institutions that are alternative dispute resolution remedies (complaint, mediation, tax assessment agreement, judicial conciliation settlement) realize the right to p…

Entrepreneurs (novices vs. experts) and investors: Interaction and rationality dynamics (effectual vs. causal)
2019
The paper studies the mechanisms that govern the interactions between the entrepreneur (novice or expert) and the specific investors of emerging firms (business angels (BAs) and venture-capital firms (VCs)). Combining both literatures on entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial finance, our aim is to understand if the rationalities of these three actors help them or not to interact, and, to study how they influence each other during the firm's growth. In order to do so, we undertake two processual case studies. Our results show that effectual rationality underlines the interaction between the entrepreneur and the BAs at the creation of the firm, whilst causal rationality is helpful in the searc…

Éthique, marché et gouvernance : espace discrétionnaire et responsabilité sociale des grandes entreprises
2007
The competition imperfection and the market inefficiency introduce a discretionary space in the decision process inside bigfirms. Incentive theories, dedicated to the mechanisms used to align the top executives' interests with the shareholders' interests, try to control this discretionary space for the benefit of the market value maximization. An approach oriented toward the stakeholders can move the focus to the positive effects of this discretionary space by opening it to the ethic values. Today, these ethic values seem to apply in two complementary aspects: the transparency in the reporting of accounts, acts and decisions, and the social responsibility toward all the stakeholders.
