Studying the relationships between hourly precipitation extremes and dewpoint temperature in Sicily.
2019
According to the well-known Clausius-Clapeyron relation, the maximum moisture content of the atmosphere increases with approximately 7% per degree temperature raise (CC-scaling rate). Under the hypothesis that relative humidity does not change, an increase in the water vapor should occur at the same rate. For this reason we could expect for the coming years an increase in the intensity of extreme precipitation as a consequence of the global climate warming. Trend on precipitation extremes and possible links to changes in atmospheric temperature and moisture are investigated in different parts of the world, and a number of observational studies has exhibited scaling rates that are either hig…

THE SCHOOL AT THE SERVICE OF SOCIETY: CONSEQUENCES FOR THE "NEW WORD"
2022
In this article I shall seek to demonstrate the remarkable contemporary relevance of John Dewey’s pedagogic ideas, found in publications such as My Pedagogic Creed, The School and Society and Democracy and Education. Through a brief analysis of these works I will highlight how much Dewey believed in a school that is connected to society and which places itself at its service, contributing to the birth or consolidation of a democracy understood not just as a form of government, but as a way of life. In view of this analysis and in light of the present pandemic caused by COVID-19, I will consider the importance today of the school. Following Dewey, I will take into account the role it plays i…
The Rocky Road of Growing into Contemporary Citizenship: Dewey, Gramsci, and the Method of Democracy
2015
Characterized by globalization, increasing pluralism, and new complexities of citizenship, the contemporary world poses challenges to the ways in which we conceptualize of the processes of searching for shared solutions to ever-complicated social problems. While the political rhetoric emphasizes the value of citizens’ participation, engagement, and “voices,” there are increasing feelings of frustration, incapacity, and disinterest on behalf of the citizens regarding the supposed eff ects of their political engagement. In order to conceptually grasp the problem of searching for shared solutions and the related challenges to education, we draw on John Dewey’s idea of the method of democracy a…
Tiedon ja taidon pragmatistinen yhteenkietoutuminen
2012
Tämä tutkielma käsittelee tiedon ja taidon suhdetta pragmatistisessa tietoteoriassa samalla sivuten kasvatusfilosofiaa. Tieto ja taito nähdään pragmatismissa yhteenkietoutuneina. Väitän, että tämä pitäisi ottaa huomioon koulutusjärjestelmäämme pohtiessa. Tutkielman kannalta tärkein argumenttini on pragmatismin väite, ettei tietoa voi nähdä toiminnasta erillisenä. Täten erilaiset tietämisen tavat tulevat lähemmäksi toisiaan. Tutkielman alussa avaan tiedon suhdetta toimintaan. Koska tieto nähdään toiminnasta riippuvaisena, sekoittuu siihen ruumiillisuuden kautta monenlaisia taidoksi luokiteltuja asioita, joita tutkin etenkin luvussa neljä. Argumentaationi perustuu usein pragmatistien kirjoitu…

Umowa deweloperska – początek biegu terminu na stwierdzenie wad lokalu mieszkalnego, domu jednorodzinnego i gruntu
2022
W artykule rozważona jest kwestia jaki moment/momenty należałoby uznać za początek biegu terminu na stwierdzenie wad dwóch przedmiotów umowy deweloperskiej, tj. lokalu mieszkalnego/domu jednorodzinnego (1) oraz gruntu (2), na którym dom jednorodzinny/budynek, w którym znajduje się lokal mieszkalny, jest posadowiony. Wyżej wskazane zagadnienie spotkało się już z komentarzem doktryny, ale jedynie w odniesieniu do budynku . Tym samym, niniejsze opracowanie stanowi uzupełnienie wspomnianych rozważań
