The two faces of Nordic management? Nordic firms and their employee relations in the Baltic States
2009
This study examines Nordic management styles in union and non-union industrial enterprises in the Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) through case studies of nine Nordic subsidiary companies, based on on-site interviews with management and employees.1 This analysis construes the ‘Nordic model’ of management style as ‘bargained constitutional’ or ‘sophisticated consultative’, following Purcell and Ahlstrand's (1994) matrix of management styles in the highly unionized countries of origin, characterized as coordinated market economies. The case studies reveal that in the Baltic liberal-market environment, Nordic employers exhibit a variety of management styles, ranging from sophisticate…

Articolo 56
2018
Questo contributo offre un breve commento all'articolo 56 della Costituzione italiana, avente ad oggetto la Camera dei Deputati, la sua natura elettiva, i principi e le regole per la sua composizione. Viene preso in esame il testo costituzionale del 1948 ed il significato delle elezioni democratiche; il rapporto fra eletti ed elettori e le revisioni costituzionali del 1963 e del 2001; il problema della forza prescrittiva dell'articolo 56: l'esigenza di adattamento della Costituzione all'evoluzione del quadro politico; l'articolo 56 della Costituzione come limite per il legislatore in materia elettorale: il ruolo della magistratura e della Corte costituzionale.
IL COSTITUZIONALISMO VITTORIANO TRA LIBERTÀ E IMPERO
2020
Victorian constitutionalism carries out the political premises of the Glorious Revolution, enshrining the definitive transition from the constitutional monarchy to the parliamentary one: the choice of the Prime Minister is taken away from the royal prerogative and determined by the confidence of the elective chamber, to which the Cabinet is responsible. Historical precedents, which are sometimes fortuitous, have codified a practice that would have been a model for western constitutionalism. And this is in spite of the contradictions of an era that takes its name from Queen Victoria, in which a vast colonial empire is the other side of the coin of domestic freedom, and in which poverty and e…
ESISTE IL PATERNALISMO PENALE? UN CONTRIBUTO AL DIBATTITO SUI PRINCIPI DI CRIMINALIZZAZIONE
2014
Da tempo si discute se il paternalismo penale costituisca un principio di crimina- lizzazione compatibile con gli assunti di fondo del pensiero liberale. Nell’articolo si sostiene che, in realtà, esso non costituisce un autonomo principio di criminaliz- zazione. Dopo aver distinto tra p. tutorio e p. dispotico, vi si mostra, innanzitutto, come il primo sia manifestazione del principio del danno. Anche il secondo, si sostiene, costituisce un finto avversario per il liberalismo: le incriminazioni che ne costituirebbero espressione o hanno un fondamento moralistico (e andrebbero perciò ‘combattute’ come forme di moralismo giuridico) oppure sviluppano, anche esse, la stessa logica del principio…
Argumentos retóricos sobre Interrupción Voluntaria del Embarazo en Colombia. Análisis jurisprudencial desde la teoría de la argumentación jurídica de…
2011
RESUMENEl presente trabajo aborda los conceptos planteados por Chaïm Perelman en su teoría de la argumentación, con el fin de lograr una comprensión del razonamiento en las decisiones judiciales tomadas por la Corte Constitucional de Colombia, en relación a tres casos sobre interrupción voluntaria del embarazo (IVE). En primer lugar, se aborda la teoría de la “Nueva Retórica” de Chaïm Perelman, y en especial su aplicación en el campo del Derecho. A continuación se hace un breve repaso de las premisas de la argumentación y las técnicas argumentativas manteniendo un enfoque de carácter jurídico. Para finalizar, se analiza la motivación de las sentencias de la Corte Constitucional colombiana …
Law and Liberty. Immanuel Kant and James Madison on the Modern Polity
2018
The article relates Kant to the American Revolution by connecting his republicanism with the ingenious balancing of national and federal features in the constitution of the American republic, as envisioned and enacted by James Madison. Section 1 sets the stage by profiling Kant and Madison in historical and systematic terms. Section 2 traces the development of republicanism from its ancient origins to its modern variety. Section 3 reconstructs Kant's legalist republicanism in the twofold context of his philosophy of history and his philosophy of law. Section 4 portrays Madison as the leading theoretician of the modern federal republic.
Criticism of Metaphysics and Constitution of the Subject: Materialist Effects on the Philosophy of Helvétius and d'Holbach
2014
The series of books, marginalia, refutations, provoked by De l'esprit (1758) and De l'homme (1773) often plays a strategic role in the understanding of the Enlightenment. This paper focuses on what really happened when Rousseau did read and commented on Helvétius, which he made twice. Rousseau comments on the theory of judgment from the account of the experience of the sensitive and judging being. The question of matter and its properties will then no longer appear as the key to Rousseau's first reaction to Helvétius' work. Then we will see what closeness between the two philosophies need to be cleared. It will appear that Rousseau did not interpret (or rather misinterpret) Helvétius as the…
Numerical Hydrodynamics and Magnetohydrodynamics in General Relativity.
2008
This article presents a comprehensive overview of numerical hydrodynamics and magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) in general relativity. Some significant additions have been incorporated with respect to the previous two versions of this review (2000, 2003), most notably the coverage of general-relativistic MHD, a field in which remarkable activity and progress has occurred in the last few years. Correspondingly, the discussion of astrophysical simulations in general-relativistic hydrodynamics is enlarged to account for recent relevant advances, while those dealing with general-relativistic MHD are amply covered in this review for the first time. The basic outline of this article is nevertheless sim…
Numerical Hydrodynamics in General Relativity
2003
The current status of numerical solutions for the equations of ideal general relativistic hydrodynamics is reviewed. With respect to an earlier version of the article the present update provides additional information on numerical schemes and extends the discussion of astrophysical simulations in general relativistic hydrodynamics. Different formulations of the equations are presented, with special mention of conservative and hyperbolic formulations well-adapted to advanced numerical methods. A large sample of available numerical schemes is discussed, paying particular attention to solution procedures based on schemes exploiting the characteristic structure of the equations through lineariz…
