Postfazione. Nuove enclosure, caccia alle streghe e spazi (trans)femministi
2022
Lo studio e l’analisi della caccia alle streghe attraversano tutta la produzione teorica e la riflessione politica di Silvia Federici. In questo nuovo testo, riprendendo alcuni dei temi chiave di Calibano e la strega2 – l’origine del capitalismo nei processi di recinzione delle terre comuni e dei corpi delle donne, la separazione tra produzione e riproduzione e l’organizzazione del lavoro riproduttivo nella lunga transizione capitalistica – Federici ci offre, ancora una volta, un metodo di critica e lettura del presente che si interroga costantemente su origini e trasformazioni del capitale.
Varieties Generated by Certain Models of Reversible Finite Automata
2006
Reversible finite automata with halting states (RFA) were first considered by Ambainis and Freivalds to facilitate the research of Kondacs-Watrous quantum finite automata. In this paper we consider some of the algebraic properties of RFA, namely the varieties these automata generate. Consequently, we obtain a characterization of the boolean closure of the classes of languages recognized by these models.
Social capital in the international operations of family SMEs
2012
PurposeThe aim of this study is to discuss how social capital is developed in the internationalization process of small and medium‐sized family enterprises (family SMEs).Design/methodology/approachThis paper reports findings from an in‐depth multiple case study with four Finnish manufacturing family SMEs. The data were analyzed through the perspectives of structural holes, network closure, and the interplay between these two mechanisms.FindingsThe material in the paper demonstrated that family entrepreneurs had a large number of structural holes when launching international operations, but also after several years of running international operations. Instead of trying to span structural hol…
Dix ans d'archéologie forestière dans le Châtillonnais (Côte-d'Or) : enclos, habitats, parcellaires
2010
National audience; Ces recherches sur les ensembles de structures de pierre sous forêt sont mises en œuvre depuis dix ans et sont inté- grées depuis 2003 dans le P.C.R. ‘Vix et son Environnement', dirigé par C. Mordant, S. Wirth et B. Chaume. Les vestiges étudiés sont implantés dans deux milieux géographiques distincts mais contigus : le plateau calcaire recouvert par la forêt domaniale de Châtillon, et les rebords de la Digeanne et du Brevon qui entaillent ce plateau à l'est et au sud. La prospection présente ici des caractères particuliers liés au couvert forestier. Les relevés G.P.S. sont intégrés dans un S.I.G. et constituent la base de cette étude, dans un va et vient…
Seksuālās sevis atklāšanās, seksuālā kontakta biežuma un seksuālās apmierinātības saistība pieaugušo vecumā
2021
Seksuālā apmierinātība ir seksuālās veselības un labbūtības sastāvdaļa. Pētījumā tika skatīts kāda saistība pastāv starp seksuālo apmierinātību, seksuālo sevis atklāšanas pakāpi attiecībās un vēlamā seksuālā kontakta biežuma starpību starp partneriem, kā arī to vai pastāv atšķirība attiecībā uz dzimumiem, seksuālo apmierinātību, seksuālo sevis atklāšanas pakāpi attiecībās un vēlamā seksuālā kontakta biežuma starpību starp partneriem un vai atšķirības būs tiem respondentiem, kuriem nav bērni un respondentiem, kuriem ir bērni un viņi dzīvo kopā. Pētījumā piedalījās 182 respondenti, izlasē bija 76,4% (n = 139) sievietes un 23,6% vīrieši (n = 43). 85,7% (n = 156) no aptaujātajiem respondentiem …
A ∼700 Ma Sm–Nd garnet–whole rock age from the granulite facies Central Kaoko Zone (Namibia): Evidence for a cryptic high-grade polymetamorphic histo…
2007
Continental collision of the Kalahari and the Congo craton in Africa and the Rio de la Plata Craton in South America resulted in a structurally complex Neoproterozoic belt system, the Kaoko–Dom Feliciano–Ribeira belt. It is uncertain whether these three cratons collided more or less simultaneously during one single orogenic event at ∼580–550 Ma or whether the belt owe its structural and metamorphic features to several so far poorly constrained events. The Kaoko Belt (NW Nambia), representing the belt system between the southern Congo Craton and the Rio de la Plata Craton, is an ideal object to study these complexities. Within this belt, high-grade meta-igneous and metasedimentary rocks of t…
Enceintes néolithiques de Bourgogne
2002
L'article fait le point sur les enceintes néolithiques identifiées dans les départements bourguignons, principalement Yonne et Côte d'Or. On dénombre ainsi environ 180 sites aménagés défensivement. En plaine, les enceintes privilégient l'installation le long des cours d'eau principaux (Yonne, Armançon, Serein, cours amont de la Saône), à la confluence avec un ru de moindre importance dont le bassin versant s'ouvre sur un "arrière pays" qui offre des opportunités d'échanges. Ainsi s'esquisse un modèle d'occupation du territoire qui débute avec le Cerny et qui évolue jusqu'au Néolithique récent.
Analysis of the energy balance closure over a FLUXNET boreal forest in Finland
2010
Abstract. The imbalance in the surface energy budget, when using eddy-covariance techniques to measure turbulent fluxes, is still an unresolved problem. Important progresses have been reported in recent years identifying potential reasons for this lack of energy balance closure. In this paper we focus on the data collected in a FLUXNET boreal forest site in Sodankylä, Finland. Using one month half-hourly data, an average Energy Balance Ratio (EBR) of 0.72 is obtained. The inclusion of the heat storage terms in the energy budget yields an improvement of about 6% in the total closure. The sensitivity of the energy balance closure to the turbulence intensity is analysed in terms of the frictio…
Carbon emissions by Ssouth american companies: driving factors for reporting decisions and emissions reduction
2018
In the last decade, companies have started to disclose information on carbon emissions. To our knowledge, this is the first paper to look into this phenomenon in South America, which is a very important geographical area regarding climate change because of the local nature and developing economies. This paper explores the relationships between some corporate variables and two important decisions: (i) whether to report carbon emissions, and (ii) the impact on the evolution of carbon emissions. Logit and linear panel data models are used to determine the driving factors for decisions (i) and (ii). Our results show that regarding the carbon reporting decision, a company&rsquo
Legitimacy and relevance of a performance measurement system in a Finnish public-sector case
2019
Purpose This study investigates the difficulties involved in translating stakeholder expectations into action and maintaining legitimacy through the use of a performance measurement system (PMS) created in a Finnish regional development company (RDC). This longitudinal case study illustrates the fluctuating and socially constructed nature of legitimacy in the public sector. Design/methodology/approach This qualitative case study longitudinally analyzes the various developments occurring during and after the development of a PMS system for the case organization. Empirical data include interviews, workshops, observation and other materials relating to the case organization. Findings The init…
