Dichlorovanadium(IV) diamine-bis(phenolate) complexes for ethylene (co)polymerization and 1-olefin isospecific polymerization
2018
Abstract Two vanadium complexes bearing amine-bis(phenolate) ligands with the amino side-arm donor, [V{Me2NCH2CH2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)2}Cl2] (1) and [V{Me2NCH2CH2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)(CH2-2-O-C6H4)}Cl2] (2), were synthesised and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Upon activation with Al(iBu)3/Ph3CB(C6F5)4, these complexes became active catalysts for 1-octene polymerization giving highly stereoregular polymers (mmmm ∼ 90%) having regioirregularly arranged units. The catalytic activity of the catalysts in ethylene homo- and copolymerization, and their ability to incorporate a comonomer were highly dependent on both the activator type and the complex structure. 1/EtAlCl2 exhi…
Duques, princesas y arzobispos: la fecha de redacción de Virtud, pobreza y mujer, de Lope de Vega
2021
En este artículo se aportan las razones oportunas para considerar que la comedia 'Virtud, pobreza y mujer', de Lope de Vega, se escribió a comienzos de 1616, frente a la opinión mayoritaria de la crítica, que hasta ahora se había inclinado por fecharla en un periodo comprendido entre 1612 y 1615. Los indicios a este respecto se encuentran en el segundo acto de la obra: se trata de una serie de referencias a circunstancias concretas, fechables todas ellas en 1616, ligadas a personajes del momento, tales como el arzobispo Pedro González de Mendoza y Silva (1571-1639), la princesa - y futura reina - Isabel de Borbón (1602-1644) y, finalmente, Jorge de Cárdenas y Manrique (ca. 1592-1644), cuart…
Gender-Specific Call of Duty: A Note on the Neglect of Conscription in Gender Equality Indexes
2019
We document that existing gender equality indexes do not take into account gender-specific mandatory peace-time conscriptions. This suggests that gender-specific conscription is not considered to be an important gender issue. If an indicator measuring the gender equality of mandatory conscription (compulsory military service) would be included into gender equality indexes with appropriate weight then the relative positions of countries could be affected. In the context of Nordic countries, this would mean that Finland and Denmark, the countries with conscription for male only, would get worse scores with respect to gender equality compared to Sweden and Norway, countries with conscription o…
Genetically 'pure' Fasciola gigantica discovered in Algeria: DNA multimarker characterization, trans-Saharan introduction from a Sahel origin and spr…
2020
Fascioliasis is a freshwater snail-borne zoonotic helminth disease caused by two species of trematodes: Fasciola hepatica of almost worldwide distribution and the more pathogenic F. gigantica restricted to parts of Asia and most of Africa. Of high pathological impact in ruminants, it underlies large livestock husbandry losses. Fascioliasis is moreover of high public health importance and accordingly included within the main neglected tropical diseases by WHO. Additionally, this is an emerging disease due to influences of climate and global changes. In Africa, F. gigantica is distributed throughout almost the whole continent except in the north-western Maghreb countries of Morocco, Algeria a…
The Transition from Hospital to Home: Older People's Experiences
2015
The amount of older patients who are discharged from hospitals while continuing to need care is increasing in Norway. The transition between different care services has the potential for high rates of medication errors, incomplete or inaccurate information transfer, and lack of appropriate follow-up care. Thus, insight into the transition process is vital to understanding the complexity and vulnerability the patients are exposed to in this process. The aim of this phenomenological hermeneutic study was to describe and illuminate the lived experiences of older home residents during the transitions from hospital to home. Data were collected through narrative interviews, and an interpretation …
Quality of life of abused older women: moderating influence of coping mechanisms
2019
In 2002, the World Health Organization (WHO) brought global attention to elder abuse and the need for prevention in issuing the Toronto Declaration. With the rise in the proportion of people aged 60 and over, but also the spectacular demographic projections for people aged 80 years and older (globally the number of persons aged 80 and over is expected to triple by 2050), how we age, and how well we age is of great concern. Furthermore, there will be a growing need to protect the most vulnerable older people from harm. For the development of policies and interventions, more insight into this complex phenomenon is required. Therefore, the current chapter examines the effect of abuse on the qu…

“E venne un barbaro …”. Giuseppe Samonà e la ricerca impaziente
2020
Scrive Giuseppe Semerani: «nel 1936 un barbaro viene a Venezia: Giuseppe Samonà. Un ingegnere, un aristocratico siciliano, un provinciale». Ma proprio quel barbaro, aristocratico e provinciale seppe in breve tempo, cito sempre Semerani, «diventare imperatore»; capace di scardinare il conservatorismo culturale della scuola di Architettura lagunare proiettandola in una dimensione nuova, di vera e propria rifondazione che la trasformerà in una delle migliori scuole in Italia e in Europa. Naturalmente Samonà era “barbaro” e “provinciale” in una misura che è esclusivamente simbolica o, per meglio dire, ideologica, di chi è capace, in una fase di transizione culturale epocale, di saper offrire nu…
Information Greater than Mobilisation Greater than Interaction: Contours of a Pan-European Style of Social Media Campaigning
2021
This chapter compares the Facebook campaigns of 90 political parties aggregated by the political groups in the EP to which they belong from 12 countries in the 2019 EP election. Based on these results we identify the contours of a pan-European style of social media campaigning that can be described as follows: national contexts dominated and framed the EP elections. In comparison to the three key functions of election campaigns, parties place the most importance by far on information in their use of social media. Calls for mobilisation play a certain role, while the parties seem hardly interested in interactions. The ongoing neglect of social media’s interactive potential in politics calls …
