Being mindful at work and at home
2020
Although previous research on mindfulness predominantly focused on benefits of mindfulness, this study investigates quantitative and emotional demands as contextual antecedents of mindful awareness and acceptance both in the work and home domains. In addition, we examine goal attainment and satisfaction in the work and home domains as consequences of mindful awareness and acceptance. Results of a diary study across 5 workdays with 2 daily measurement occasions among 233 employees revealed that both in the work and home domains, quantitative demands were positively associated with awareness, but not with acceptance, whereas emotional demands were positively associated with acceptance, but no…
«Perché l’intelletto abbia respiro e la giustizia abbia il suo corso». La testimonianza civile di Giuseppe Antonio Borgese
2021
Nel gennaio del 1935, sul periodico antifascista «Giustizia e Libertà» approdano alla luce editoriale le due lettere indirizzate da Borgese a Mussolini, il 18 agosto del 1933 e il 18 ottobre del 1934, in cui prende corpo la testimonianza del dissenso dell’intellettuale, già dal 1931 trasferitosi in America, rispetto alla deriva autocratica del regime in Italia. Il discorso epistolare, mosso dalla volontà di esprimere il diniego all’imposizione del giuramento fascista agli intellettuali e strategicamente ignorato da Mussolini, giunge, nella seconda lettera del ’34, alla definitiva frattura dal fascismo cui si oppone la «libera unione degli stati d’Europa», un disegno civico coltivato nel tem…
Lev Tolstoy's Appreciation of Charles Dickens?
2022
In Lev Tolstoy’s letters, memoirs and even literary works, mentions of Charles Dickens, his works and his influence on the Russian writer are found often enough to deserve a closer look. Of the Victorian writers Tolstoy read, Dickens was the most eminent, and his appreciation of the English author was permanent and unchangeable. Even in the period of his spiritual crisis, when he rejected most of his own works, some inspired by Dickens, he did not change his positive attitude towards his favourite English writer. Tolstoy read many of Dickens’s works, both in English and in Russian. He even managed to publish in his publishing house “Intermediary” Dickens’s Little Dorrit, Great Expectations,…

The nationality of companies in French law
2012
The development of international economic relations and the construction of an integrated European area, both from an economic and a political point of view, has revived the debate on the nationality of trading companies. The question is not so much whether trading companies have a nationality on an equal footing with natural persons – solutions have long been accepted by international doctrine and jurisprudence – but rather to determine how this notion has evolved and adapted to the constraints on the one hand, of a globalized market economy and, on the other hand, of European Union law which overturns the traditionally accepted solutions of nationality of trading companies into the legal …
Contribución al análisis sociológico de la creatividad y la digitalización del campo cultural: creación, intermediación y crisis
2019
The so-called transition to the digital paradigm is eroding the autonomy of the cultural field achieved during the XIX and XX Centuries, subjugating them to economic and technological dynamics. However, the hegemonic discourse tends to interpret this as an overall positive process for the creative domain, focusing on the increase in information resource and creativity tool availability. However, an analysis of the theories and concepts of the sociology of culture reveals a more ambivalent balance. While the notion of authorship and creation can be interpreted from a more cooperative and relativistic view it is arguable whether this concept can be eliminated altogether. Also, although cultur…

The photo diaries method to catch the daily experience of Italian university students during COVID-19 lockdown
2022
The aim of this research was to explore Italian students’ lockdown experience during the COVID-19 pandemic to understand their emotions and the coping strategies they played out during their daily lives at home through photo diaries. The research was carried out in six Italian universities involving 109 participants. The task required each student to take one photo per day for one week in T1 and one in T2, representing their mood during their daily life at home and to give it a title and a brief description. Overall, 1,526 photographs with texts were collected. The main subjects of the photographs were objects, the most frequent coping strategy was self-distraction, and most participants ex…
Kirja-arvostelut alustataloudessa – esimerkkinä käyttäjälähtöiset arvostelut Instagramissa
2021
Kulttuurituotteita eivät sosiaalisen median aikakaudella enää arvostele julkisesti vain perinteisen median ammattikriitikot, vaan myös tavalliset ihmiset osallistuvat teosten julkiseen arvottamiseen erilaisilla digitaalisilla alustoilla. Tarkastelemme tässä artikkelissa kirjallisuusarvosteluja osana alustoitunutta kulttuurituotantoa esimerkkinämme käyttäjälähtöiset kirja-arvostelut erityisesti kuvasovellus Instagramissa. Instagramiin on vakiintunut kirjallisuuskeskusteluyhteisö, jota kutsutaan maailmanlaajuisesti nimellä Bookstagram mutta jolla on myös paikallisia tai alueellisia muotoja, kuten suomalainen Kirjagram. Kysymme, miten käyttäjäarvostelijat esiintyvät niissä arvostelulle määrite…
Fiesta pública y memorialística en la Barcelona barroca
2018
Una de les eines més efectives per poder conèixer amb més detall els esdeveniments de la història és la memorialística.
