Participer pour rendre le travail possible. Les staffs en unités de soins palliatifs
2018
Répondant à un mandat médical particulier — soigner sans guérir —, les professionnels de soins palliatifs font d’une partie du « sale boulot » hospitalier leur cœur de métier. Dans l’incapacité d’y faire face seuls mais aussi pour lutter contre la souffrance au travail, les médecins attendent des personnels paramédicaux qu’ils participent à l’élaboration du soin à travers des réunions pluridisciplinaires nommées « staff ». Cette participation modifie la division du travail habituellement en vigueur à l’hôpital, et entraîne des « charges de la participation » supplémentaires pour les paramédicaux. Mais dans le même temps, les staffs permettent aux paramédicaux de s’approprier les cadres cult…
Italy: money transfer, money laundering and intermediary liability
2020
Purpose This paper aims to offer a general overview of money transfers in Italy and Europe focussing specifically on the migrant community. This is of particular interest because it is in that community where money transfers are most prevalent. This shows the money transfer system as a tool that could guarantee the financial inclusion of migrants but at the same time being used in a distorted and unlawful manner. Design/methodology/approach After a brief introduction focussed on working principles and legal frameworks, the paper will go deeper in evaluating money transfer data. This data, which comes from various legal authorities, will show the extent to which different migrant communitie…
Quick and dirty but still pretty good: a review of new descriptive methods in food science
2012
Summary For food scientists and industrials, descriptive profiling is an essential tool that involves the evaluation of both the qualitative and quantitative sensory characteristics of a product by a panel. Recently, in response to industrial demands to develop faster and more cost-effective methods of descriptive analysis, several methods have been offered as alternatives to conventional profiling. These methods can be classified in three families: (i) verbal-based methods (flash profile and check-all-that-apply), (ii) similarity-based methods (free sorting task and projective mapping aka Napping®) and (iii) reference-based methods (polarised sensory positioning and pivot profile). We succ…
Castron kastraatio : Pedro Juan Gutiérrezin proosa castrokommunistisen utopian romuttajana
2016
This dissertation explores how Pedro Juan Gutiérrez's fiction corresponds to the Castrocommunist utopia. The study has three goals: (1) to explain how Castro-communism has formed, altered and impacted on Cuban literature; (2) to investigate how Gutiérrez's fiction corresponds to the Castro-communist utopia and ideals; and (3) how his parodic (anti)detective story Nuestro GG en La Habana (2004) is based on and relates to Cuban socialist detective stories, Graham Greene's spy farce Our Man in Havana, Castro-communist historiography and the social, ideological and economic shifts in Cuban society during the 1990s. Previous studies on Gutiérrez's fiction have focused almost exclusively on the a…
L’impatto del diritto comunitario sulle relazioni con i paesi terzi nel campo delle imposte dirette
2008
L'impatto del diritto comunitario sull'ordinamento giuridico dei Paesi terzi in materia di imposte dirette riguarda in primis la libera circolazione dei capitali. Lo scambio di informazioni e l'assistenza nella fase dell'accertamento costituiscono fattori rilevanti per estendere l'ambito delle libertà fondamentali anche ai rapporti con paesi non appartenenti all'Unione europea.
Dirty Hands? No (Moral) Problem!
2018
In his famous 1973 paper, Michael Walzer introduced “The Problem of Dirty Hands” to political philosophy. A decision-maker, according to Walzer, is “trapped” in a dirty hands-situation if his decision and ensuing actions “may be exactly the right thing to do […] and yet leave the man guilty of a moral wrong. The innocent man, afterwards, is no longer innocent” (Walzer 1973: 160).
Wider is better but sharper is not: optimizing the image of camera-monitor systems
2021
The replacement of rear-view mirrors with camera-monitor systems introduces new opportunities for design, such as altering the image quality and the rearward field-of-view. We investigated how the image quality and field-of-view might affect the distance and time-to-contact estimation of other vehicles. Eighty-six subjects estimated either their egocentric distance to a stationary vehicle (Experiment I) or the time-to-contact to an approaching vehicle (Experiment II). Throughout the experiments, the pixel density and either the field-of-view or the viewing condition varied. A larger field-of-view increased distance estimation accuracy and confidence. Reduced pixel density led to larger esti…
Empowered by stigma? Pioneer organic farmers' stigma management strategies
2019
Abstract Pioneers of organic farming often faced social challenges as their innovative ideas on agriculture not only encountered opposition in the conventional farming community, but led to stigmatization of organic farmers as social deviants. In this study, we examine what kind of stigma management strategies pioneer organic farmers engage with in order to cultivate an alternative positive image of themselves. Our research is based on the interviews with 14 pioneer organic farmers. Based on a qualitative analysis of the interviews, we provide a model of those strategies that the creation from a stigmatized to valued identity requires. Our study increases the understanding of the institutio…
