The Impact of Consulting Service on Spanish Firms

2003

Introduction Specialized services that help in efficient decision-making in company management--that is consulting service--undoubtedly make up one of the most dynamic sectors of the economy in most European countries and in Spain (Rubalcaba 1997; Camacho 1998; Gonzalez 1999). There is a huge amount of literature available on the subject of consulting, and it often is stated that the consultant contributes a large dose of common sense to a management situation that is not always rational. (1) However, the consultant is not a magician who discovers what the client did not know, although the consultant is able to look at the problem from a more appropriate angle and his or her services should…

Priority areas for the conservation of Atlantic forest large mammals

2009

Large mammal faunas in tropical forest landscapes are widely affected by habitat fragmentation and hunting, yet the environmental determinants of their patterns of abundance remain poorly understood at large spatial scales. We analysed population abundance and biomass of 31 species of medium to large-bodied mammal species at 38 Atlantic forest sites (including three islands, 26 forest fragments and six continuous forest sites) as related to forest type, level of hunting pressure and forest fragment size using ANCOVAs. We also derived a novel measure of mammal conservation importance for each site based on a "Mammalian Conservation Priority index" (MPi) which incorporates information on spec…

A possible bridge between Adria and Africa: New palaeobiogeographic and stratigraphic constraints on the Mesozoic palaeogeography of the Central Medi…

2010

Abstract Dinosaur records in central and southern Italy testify to the occurrence of a diverse dinosaur fauna on the Apennine and Apulian carbonate platforms at least from the Tithonian to the Santonian. Most of the palaeogeographic reconstructions show these domains as topographically isolated areas, separated by deep pelagic basins and far from emerged continental areas. Thus, they hardly justify the long-lasting occurrence of these terrestrial vertebrates. Recent studies on the Mesozoic Panormide Carbonate Platform (western Sicily) yielded important stratigraphical and palaeontological data, which provide evidence for a convincing explanation of this unresolved problem. The recent discov…

La Piattaforma Carbonatica Panormide: un caso anomalo nell'evoluzione dei bacini della Tetide giurassica

2010

Negli ultimi anni sono state proposte diverse ricostruzioni paleogeografiche dell'area Centro Mediterranea durante il Mesozoico.La Piattaforma Carbonatica Panormide (PCPA) viene collocata tra la Tetide Alpina e la Tetide Ionica, in un'area geodinamicamente molto complessa. Recenti studi hanno documentato la presenza di superfici di discontinuita che caratterizzano l'evoluzione stratigrafica della PCPA rispetto alle adiacenti Piattaforme Carbonatiche Siciliane. La presenza di superfici di discontinuita negli intervalli Retico-Hettangiano e Giurassico Medio-Oxfordiano vengono messe in relazione, attraverso il confronto della storia della subsidenza tra le Piattaforme Carbonatiche, con gli sta…

Siti Web Museali: Identità Perdute. Appunti per una “storia” del progetto web museale nei primi anni 2000

2021

This discussion tries to investigate the theme of the "web amnesia" in relation to the website project of cultural institutions. More precisely, the reflection is inspired by a "rereading" of a research experience gained within the University of Palermo through the drafting of a doctoral thesis entitled "The web for culture. From digital identity to the design of online services” which had as its objective the mapping of the websites of museums or cultural institutions in relation to quality criteria, operational indications, design guidelines and, in general, to all the issues of the sectoral scientific debate of the early 2000s. Today, thanks to this possible reinterpretation, this resear…

Matrici geometriche nelle absidi salentine del XVI secolo delle chiese di San Nicola a Cursi e di San Michele Arcangelo a Minervino di Lecce.

2015

This paper offers a critical interpretation of the geometric and proportional matrices applied to the construction of the 16th-century apses of the churches of San Nicola in Cursi and San Michele Arcangelo in Minervino di Lecce in the Salento peninsula. It also intends to assess possible links between the cases examined and other contemporary edifices in an attempt to identify possible common rules. The study of the geometric matrices used for the construction of these edifices was carried out by means of laser scanning and the creation of digital models to discretize the morphological configuration.

THE NEW ARCHITECTURE OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC GOVERNANCE AND ITS CONSTITUTIONAL IMPLICATIONS AT THE EU AND NATIONAL LEVEL

La tesi analizza la nuova architettura costituzionale della governance economica europea come ridefinita dalle più recenti riforme europee predisposte al fine di contrastare la crisi economico-finanziaria dell’area euro e il suo impatto sull’assetto costituzionale dell’Unione europea e degli Stati Membri. La tesi, articolata in quattro capitoli e redatta interamente in lingua inglese, ripercorre le tappe salienti dell’evoluzione dell’Unione Economica e Monetaria, analizza le principali disposizioni della “costituzione economica” dell’Unione europea e contiene un’esposizione, in chiave critica, delle principali misure adottate dall’Unione europea per contrastare la crisi economica della zona…

European Committee of the Regions after the Conference on the future of Europe

2022

questo lavoro analizza il ruolo, l’organizzazione e le competenze del Comitato europeo delle Regioni alla luce dell’evoluzione normativa che ha contraddistinto l’organismo considerato il “guardiano della sussidiarietà europea” nel rapporto con i cittadini e i territori. In particolare si approfondiscono le possibili traiettorie di riforma nella prospettiva della Conferenza sul futuro dell’Europa.

Settore IUS/10 - Diritto Amministrativothis essay illustrates the role organization and competences of the European Committee of the Regions in the light of the discipline of the European legal system. Specific consideration is given to the function of “guardian of European subsidiarity” than the Lisbon Treaty but even more so in relation to the increased political role assumed by the European Committee of the Regions in representation of the territories and citizens in the perspective of the Conference on the Future of Europe.

Il delitto di "caporalato" tra diritti minimi della persona e tutela del mercato del lavoro

2020

Il contributo analizza il reato di intermediazione illecita e sfruttamento lavorativo, offrendo un’analisi comparata con il sistema repressivo tedesco. Lo studio si sofferma, in particolare, sui limiti di legittimazione del diritto penale nella punizione dei fatti di “caporalato”, nel tentativo di scongiurare che l’intervento repressivo nelle dinamiche economiche e contrattuali, di natura sinallagmatica, possa assumere una portata tale da porsi in contrasto con il canone della sussidiarietà. A tal fine, si suggerisce una prospettiva ermeneutica che incentri il disvalore penale del reato di cui all’art. 603-bis c.p. sulla lesione dei diritti fondamentali del lavoratore – riconducibili agli a…

Settore IUS/17 - Diritto PenaleThe paper analyses the offence of unlawful work intermediation and exploitation offering a comparative analysis with the German punitive system. The study focuses in particular on the limits of legitimacy of criminal law in the punishment of gangmaster acts in the attempt to avoid that the punitive intervention in economic and contractual dynamics of a mutual nature could be so intrusive to be in contrast with the principle of subsidiarity. To this end the author suggests an interpretative perspective that centres the penal disvalue of the offence under article 603-bis of the criminal code on the harm to fundamental workers’ rights – as linked to articles 4 35 and 36 of the Italian Constitutions – which work as a limit to entrepreneurial freedom. To be sure the indexes of exploitation listed by the criminalising norm seem to echo those fundamental human rights attributed to a person as a worker: those very same rights that – when harmed in their minimal and therefore intangible dimension – legitimise the intervention of the ius terribile. The article also stresses the protection of the job market: in this sense the offence – even if situated within the Kernstrafrecht – represents a new paradigm of the institutional response within the framework of the contemporary relationships between law and economics.
