La Media Education tra cultura partecipativa e intenzionalità civica. Due casi di studio
2022
The mass diffusion of the web in the early 1990s, and the web 2.0 a decade later, has undoubtedly allowed a more democratic access to information and knowledge, and served as a catalyst for sociability and participation as it offers the possibility of cultivating spaces for discussion and sharing with a potentially infinite number of people. Since then, innumerable forms of grassroot online engagement have grown in the most diverse fields, from leisure, to politics, to civicism making concrete the possibility of a new digital public sphere (Marinelli and Cioni 2014, Bartoletti and Faccioli 2013, Dahlgren 2009). This socio- communicative ferment, which Jenkins (1992) describes with the contr…

Analyzing Online Social Support Networks. The Case of Italian Time Banks on Facebook
2019
With the advent of the Internet, social support has changed in nature and size, and new forms of social help have emerged, that reshaped the meaning of this concept. In the last years, social support has been mainly investigated within the theoretical framework of relational sociology, using network analysis techniques (Crossley, 2011; Donati, 2011; Mische, 2011; Tronca, 2013). An interesting expression of social support networks and civic engagement is the phenomenon of time banks that has had a broad diffusion in the mid-1990s, after important changes in postindustrial society. These organizations are now trying to exploit the potential of the Internet and social networking sites as a mea…
Las cuatro muertes de Cleonice: poder, sexo, violencia y fantasmas
2019
Greek tradition links the death of regent Pausanias of Sparta with ghosts. In this paper, we focus on the well-known episode that revolves around Pausanias himself and a Byzantine maiden and is transmitted by Aristodemus, Plutarch and Pausanias Periegetes. The multiplicity of versions demands a comparative analysis, which we carry out taking into account the three spaces where the narrative action takes place (civic, intimate and ritual spaces). Results indicate a concordance between Plutarch and Pausanias Periegetes, as well as a dissonance between them and Aristodemus. This difference especially affects the narrative treatment of the maiden, a ghost properly so-called in Plutarch and Paus…
Un confronto: la Sicilia nel III secolo
2015
Il III secolo, ovvero, da un osservatorio siciliano, il periodo da Agatocle a M. Valerio Levino, è epoca di profonde trasformazioni inerenti tanto l’assetto geopolitico quanto il quadro insediamentale e produttivo, le dinamiche culturali e sociali, le reti di connettività, gli schemi comportamentali. A fronte della complessità dei fenomeni determinata dal succedersi di eventi bellici (con conseguenze di diversa entità sull’habitat e sullo stato delle comunità isolane), dalle reazioni e adeguamenti a situazioni, tendenze e attori nuovi, dal variegato mosaico etnico e politico, dall’elaborazione di modelli di gestione più incisivi nell’eparchia, regno, provincia, la ricerca archeologica ha mo…
Contributo allo studio degli usi civici e della proprietà collettiva. Una storia parallela
2023
A fronte dell’attuale interesse da parte dei giuristi per beni, soggetti e istituti sino ad oggi sconosciuti alla codicistica ed alla dottrina tradizionale (l’ambiente, la biodiversità, l’ecosistema, i beni comuni, le generazioni future, la proprietà intergenerazionale), che anzi negavano la loro stessa esistenza nel mondo del commercio giuridico, il libro ripercorre le vicende storiche e gli interventi legislativi in tema di usi civici e di proprietà collettive, antichi istituti che spesso a tali nuovi concetti giuridici vengono associati, sia per il loro stretto legame con il territorio sia per un gioco di assonanze tra il termine collettivo ed il termine comune. L’autore, nel ricostruire…
Online Communication with Citizens. Should Latvian Public Institutions Learn from Foreign Experience?
2021
Civic engagement is a core value of democracy that approves legitimacy of democracy itself and decisions made by public institutions.

Accordingly, methods of the research are analysis of scientific pu…
