Critica della causa al servizio dell’adeguatezza in concreto del contratto. Il caso dell’assicurazione della responsabilità civile con copertura clai…
2019
The essay analyses civil liability insurance contracts based on claims made and the tormented evolution of the related jurisprudence. The Author criticizes the position of the jurisprudence, especially with reference to the recent judgment of the Sezioni Unite no.22437 of 2018. Upon examination of the reasons given to support the validity of this type of contract, the Author comes to the conclusion that the latter should be considered void in both versions: pure and impure claims made. Indeed, the claims made agreement drives the related contract beyond the area of the indemnity function, placing it firmly in the context of contracts with speculative cause. The examination then widens to th…
L’assicurazione della responsabilità civile su base claims made e la deformazione del giudizio sulla causa del contratto
2019
The essay analyses civil liability insurance contracts based on claims made and the tormented evolution of the related jurisprudence. The Author criticizes the position of the jurisprudence, especially with reference to the recent judgment of the Sezioni Unite no. 22437 of 2018. The examination widens to the reckless attempt of the Sezioni Unite to subordinate the validity of these contracts to a judgment of adequacy imbedded in the context of the judgment on the cause of the contractand destined, in case of negative outcome, to allow the judge to redetermine the content of the contract, using the remedy of partial nullity pursuant to Article 1419 of the civil code, in a rebalancing effort.
Mothers’ non-standard working schedules and family time : enhancing regularity and togetherness
2016
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate Finnish working mothers’ experiences of the effects of non-standard working schedules (NSWS) on family time in two family forms, coupled and lone-parent families. Furthermore the aim is to find out what meanings mothers with NSWS attached to family time paying particular attention to the circumstances in which mothers experienced NSWS positively. Design/methodology/approach – Thematic analysis of 20 semi-structured interviews was used to investigate mothers’ experiences of the effects of NSWS on family time. Findings – The key factor generating positive experiences was the ability to maintain regularity and togetherness, which was enhan…
From intensive car-parenting to enabling childhood velonomy? Explaining parents’ representations of children’s leisure mobilities
2023
Intensive parenting has become a key term for analysing the pressures and priorities of contemporary western parenting culture. For mobility studies it provides a discursive framework for understanding why children’s leisure has shifted from free play and mobility towards various adult-led organised activities and why parents deem it necessary to control children’s leisure journeys in an unprecedented manner. Most of the research on parenting and mobility has explained these trends with urban risks and safeguarding, but this paper highlights how parents also control, manage and enable children’s mobility to resource and enrich them with various dispositions. We use children’s mobility exper…
Zgoda pracownika jako podstawa legalizująca gromadzenie przez pracodawcę danych biometrycznych pracownika

Zgoda pracownika na pobieranie i przetwarzanie danych biometrycznych a brak równowagi stron stosunku pracy
2016
Zagadnienie, czy brak równowagi stron stosunku pracy faktycznie może stawiać pod znakiem zapytania dobrowolność w wyrażeniu przez pracownika zgody na pobieranie i przetwarzanie danych biometrycznych, a w konsekwencji czy „zależność pracownika od pracodawcy” jest stanem, który ex definitione stale zakłóca przejawy woli pracownika, budzi ciągłe kontrowersje, jak i rozbieżności interpretacyjne. Zdaniem autora zgoda pracownika na pobieranie i przetwarzanie dotyczących go danych biometrycznych dotyczy sfery, w której pracownicze podporządkowanie nie odgrywa jakiejkolwiek roli, sfery, w której wzajemne relacje stron stosunku pracy są oparte na pełnej ich równości wobec siebie, w ramach której z u…
Controversies on the origin of life
2005
Different viewpoints, many with deep philosophical and historical roots, have shaped the scientific study of the origin of life. Some of these argue that primeval life was based on simple anaerobic microorganisms able to use a wide inventory of abiotic organic materials (i.e. a heterotrophic origin), whereas others invoke a more sophisticated organization, one that thrived on simple inorganic molecules (i.e. an autotrophic origin). While many scientists assume that life started as a self-replicative molecule, the first gene, a primitive self-catalytic metabolic network has also been proposed as a starting point. Even the emergence of the cell itself is a contentious issue: did boundaries an…
Design perspectives on technology, language teaching and language teacher education
2012
Despite the national strategies and major efforts to promote pedagogical use of ICTs in education, training programs for in-service teachers have often failed to develop sustainable pedagogical practice. For sustainable development, teachers need to be offered opportunities to explore the role of technology in relation to their concept of language and learning, and reforms should be designed in negotiation with teachers and students. In teacher education, aspiring teachers are being informed of the latest research results, but bringing the theory down to practice is a major task that calls for development work soundly based on research. In this paper we suggest that design-based research (D…
