Per una lettura non antropocentrica della filosofia della natura di Aristotele
2019
L'articolo presenta una lettura non antropocentrica della filosofia della natura di Aristotele facendo leva su tre punti chiave: 1. Aristotele non è il padre dei saperi specialistici. Le opere biologiche sono il fulcro del programma di ricerca aristotelico sulla natura, fulcro dell'intero Corpus aristotelicum. 2. Nelle scienze naturali Aristotele è un continuista: fra le diverse forme di vita (vegetale e animale, animale e umana) i passaggi avvengono con continuità. Proprio da lui si origina il detto secondo cui natura non facit saltus. 3. I passi in cui Aristotele sembra esprimersi a favore di una biologia antropocentrica – e ciò non solo nella Politica, ma anche nelle opere biologiche, ad…
The Cultivation of Astronomy in Spanish Universities in the Latter Half of the 16th Century
2006
The four universities known to have taught mathematics in the 16th century in what is now known as Spain, were Salamanca, Valencia, Alcala, and, at the end of the century, Seville. In addition to being taught at university, astronomy was also taught in other institutions such as for example, the Casa de la Contratacion of Seville, the so-called Mathematics Academy of Madrid, certain naval academies and, towards the end of the century, certain Jesuit schools. At the University of Valencia, following the official foundation of the Estudi or center of learning in 1500, a chair of mathematics was set up in 1503, although we have no documentary evidence of the subjects taught there in the early …

Services supérieurs et recomposition urbaine
2000
Since the 1980s, we have observed an increasing tendency o f specialized services like producer services to leave their « natural habitat » in the center o f large met ropolitan areas in order to re loc at e in suburban zones. This phenomenon is particularly apparen t in North American citi es and seems to be occurring around certain French cities too. This paperinvestigates the forms taken by this new trend, and the reasons behind it. Taking economic geography and economics of cities as our theoretical basis, we first describe the main forces deter mining the agglomeration o f producer services and their preference for certain big cities. Agglomeration factors are to be looked for not only…

Sublimazione e repressione: la crisi delle scienze europee e la musica barocca
2009
Dopo la Controriforma continua l'espansione e la sublimazione dell'eros, tipica del Rinascimento: fino al 1683 circa; quindi predomina la repressione dell'eros e lo sfruttamento delle energie vitali per la produzione industriale. Alla fluidità sonora della musica rinascimentale e barocca subentra improvvisamente la rigidezza sonora della musica dell'illuminismo e del rococò.
Ecosistemas locales de aprendizaje ante la globalización tecnológica. Retos de los modelos educativos digitales pospandemia
2021
La educación frente a la covid-19 ha puesto en práctica una infinidad de respuestas, todas urgentes, tentativas, generadas por ensayo y por error, y todavía pendientes de validación. Para comprender mejor el impacto de estas respuestas, el presente artículo defiende, partiendo de la teoría de los ecosistemas de aprendizaje, la necesidad de investigar cómo han influido las tecnologías de ámbito global en la construcción de experiencias locales de aprendizaje. Además, pone de manifiesto la necesidad de estudiar qué tipo de apoyo tanto teórico como práctico se requiere para reconducir los posibles efectos nocivos de la introducción de la tecnología de emergencia. A tal efecto, se describen las…
The lay historian explains intergroup behavior: Examining the role of identification and cognitive structuring in ethnocentric historical attributions
2017
Both historians and lay people attempt to explain national histories. However, psychological research, to date, focused predominantly on the patterns of those explanations with regard to negative historical behaviors. In this article, we assess ethnocentrism of people’s explanations of both negative and positive historical behavior of ingroup members (own nation) and outgroup members (other nation). Two studies analyze how Poles explain crimes and heroic acts committed in the General Government, as well as diverse behaviors during the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968. The studies confirm an ethnocentric pattern of explanation: positive historical actions of ingroup members we…
The inclusion of non-western artistic traditions in cultural policy:Contrasting social justice and public diplomacy approaches
2017
On both sides of the Atlantic, the dissemination of non-Western artistic traditions among the general public has been hampered by the prevalence of Eurocentric aesthetic standards in cultural institutions and organizations. In recent years, however, some states have taken steps in order to increase the exposure of immigrant-origin artists in a variety of disciplines, including theatre, music, dance, literature, cinema and visual arts. This article offers a systematic comparison of two such initiatives that have been developed at the national level: the Equity Office of the Canada Council for the Arts and Spain’s network of cultural ‘Houses’ (Red de Casas). While the former was assigned a so…
Retóricas del momento: (per)versiones (mis)antropológicas
2018
Durante la organización del XIV Congreso de Antropología celebrado en Valencia en septiembre de 2017, bajo el lema Antropologías en transformación: sentidos, compromisos y utopías, los miembros del comité organizador dudábamos de cuál podría ser el tópico de la conferencia de clausura y qué insigne personalidad de nuestro campo podría ocupar ese lugar privilegiado. Como no teníamos a nadie en cartel ni tampoco osábamos importunar a algún/a colega con tamaña empresa emprendimos la tarea de crear un personaje ad hoc que reuniera el suficiente atractivo en una ocasión tan connotada. En seguida vimos que la idea ofrecía una oportunidad incomparable para reflexionar de forma crítica sobre la aca…
